## Dataset creators
Kasra Hosseini, Kaspar Beelen and Mariona Coll Ardanuy (The Alan Turing Institute) preprocessed the text, created a database, trained and fine-tuned language models as described in the accompanying paper. Giovanni Colavizza (University of Amsterdam), David Beavan (The Alan Turing Institute) and James Hetherington (University College London) helped with planning, accessing the datasets and designing the experiments.
