feat(data): add reviewed Global Voices Polish corpus
Summary
This PR adds global_voices, a directly acquired and license-reviewed source of Polish-language civic-media and public-interest journalism, to Polish DynaWord.
The release contains 2,040 articles published by the Polish edition of Global Voices between 2008 and 2023. Global Voices describes its Lingua translations as human-made work performed by a volunteer translator community. The source therefore contributes edited, translated journalism rather than conversational Polish or text necessarily authored originally in Polish.

Provenance and cleaning
Articles were acquired directly from https://pl.globalvoices.org/, not from a third-party corpus. The release received a reviewed cleaning pass: redundant source-language passages were removed where the corresponding Polish translation was retained, together with extraction artifacts and obsolete interface text. Intentional quotations and source-language material required for context were preserved.
The source release contained 2,044 records. Four records below the minimum quality and length requirements were excluded, leaving 2,040 documents with no exact duplicates within the source. The pipeline introduced no machine translation or automatic speech transcription.
Licensing and attribution
Each released article carries CC-BY-3.0 metadata. The DynaWord author column distinguishes original authors from Polish translators where contributor information is available.
Because the fixed DynaWord schema does not contain article titles or URLs, global_voices.attribution.jsonl maps every released ID to its title, canonical article URL, contributor attribution, license URL and modification notice. The sidecar covers all 2,040 documents and has SHA-256:
ab8ad393c4453524c4f3d7fe89157bfca1d9f66f2a735815f3b1ebd405c8fa13
Binary media are not redistributed. Rights in separately quoted works, captions or embedded social-media text may remain with their respective authors.
Limitations
This source represents edited online journalism and human translation, not conversational Polish or the full distribution of contemporary Polish. Translationese, source-specific editorial conventions and intentional multilingual quotations may remain. Coverage ends in May 2023. Cross-source deduplication remains part of the complete DynaWord build.
