Human evaluation is the best way to evaluate text generation systems *if* it is done rigorously, with good experimental design, execution, and reporting. Unfortunately many of the human evaluations in NLP have quality problems including poor experimental execution and questionable experimental design; many evaluations are also difficult to reproduce. I will summarise our recent work on developing high-quality human evaluations techniques and protocols, on analysing problems in experiments done elsewhere, and on reproducing human evaluations.
