Title: Docs details
State: closed

Some comments here:

- the code samples assume the expected libraries have already been installed. Maybe add a section at start, or add it to every code sample. Something like `pip install datasets transformers torch  'datasets[streaming]'` (maybe just link to https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/installation.html + a one-liner that installs all the requirements / alternatively a requirements.txt file)
- "If you’d like to play with the examples, you must install it from source." in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/installation.html: it's not clear to me what this means (what are these "examples"?)
- in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html: "or AWS bucket if it’s not already stored in the library". It's the only place in the doc (aside from the docstring https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/package_reference/loading_methods.html?highlight=aws bucket#datasets.list_datasets) where the "AWS bucket" is mentioned. It's not easy to understand what this means. Maybe explain more, and link to https://s3.amazonaws.com/datasets.huggingface.co and/or https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/filesystems.html.
- example in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html#manually-downloading-files is obsoleted by https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/2326. Also: see https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/2691 for a bug on this specific dataset.
- in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html#manually-downloading-files the doc says "After you’ve downloaded the files, you can point to the folder hosting them locally with the data_dir argument as follows:", but the following example does not show how to use `data_dir`
- in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html#csv-files, it would be nice to have an URL to the csv loader reference (but I'm not sure there is one in the API reference). This comment applies in many places in the doc: I would want the API reference to contain doc for all the code/functions/classes... and I would want a lot more links inside the doc pointing to the API entries.
- in the API reference (docstrings) I would prefer "SOURCE" to link to github instead of a copy of the code inside the docs site (eg. https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/src/datasets/load.py#L711 instead of https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/_modules/datasets/load.html#load_dataset)
- it seems like not all the API is exposed in the doc. For example, there is no doc for [`disable_progress_bar`](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/search?q=disable_progress_bar), see https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/search.html?q=disable_progress_bar, even if the code contains docstrings. Does it mean that the function is not officially supported? (otherwise, maybe it also deserves a mention in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/package_reference/logging_methods.html)
- in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html?highlight=most%20efficient%20format%20have%20json%20files%20consisting%20multiple%20json%20objects#json-files, "The most efficient format is to have JSON files consisting of multiple JSON objects, one per line, representing individual data rows:", maybe link to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON_streaming#Line-delimited_JSON and give it a name ("line-delimited JSON"? "JSON Lines" as in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/processing.html#exporting-a-dataset-to-csv-json-parquet-or-to-python-objects ?)
- in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/loading_datasets.html, for the local files sections, it would be nice to provide sample csv / json / text files to download, so that it's easier for the reader to try to load them (instead: they won't try)
- the doc explains how to shard a dataset, but does not explain why and when a dataset should be sharded (I have no idea... for [parallelizing](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/processing.html#multiprocessing)?). It does neither give an idea of the number of shards a dataset typically should have and why.
- the code example in https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/processing.html#mapping-in-a-distributed-setting does not work, because `training_args` has not been defined before in the doc.
