+### Dataset Structure
+
+#### Data Fields
+
+<!-- info: List and describe the fields present in the dataset. -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+Each sample comes with the following fields:
+
+- `gem_id` (string): Unique sample ID
+-`text` (string): The raw text to be simplified
+-`simplified_text` (string): The simplified version of "text" field
+-`transformation_type` (string): Nature of transformation applied to raw text in order to simplify it.
+-`source_dataset` (string): Initial dataset source of sample. Values: 'itwiki' (for Italian Wikipedia) or 'tn' (manually annotated administrative documents from the Municipality of Trento, Italy)
+
+#### Reason for Structure
+
+<!-- info: How was the dataset structure determined? -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+The dataset is organized as a pairs where the raw text (input) is associated with its simplified text (output). The editing transformation and the source dataset of each sample is also provided for advanced analysis.

+
+#### Discouraged Use Cases
+

+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+The risk of surface-based metrics (BLEU, chrf++, etc) for this task is that semantic adequacy is not respected when simplifying the input document.
