	### Dataset Summary

	Wikitext-fr language modeling dataset consists of over 70 million tokens extracted from the set of french Wikipedia articles that are classified as "quality articles" or "good articles". It is designed to mirror the english benchmark from Stephen Merity, Caiming Xiong, James Bradbury, and Richard Socher. 2016.
	[Pointer Sentinel Mixture Models](https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.07843) The dataset is available under the [Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/)

	### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

	- `language-modeling`: The dataset can be used to evaluate the generation abilites of a model. Success on this task is typically measured by achieving a low perplexity. The ([model name](https://huggingface.co/asi/gpt-fr-cased-base) currently achieves 12.9.

	### Languages

	The dataset is in French.

	## Dataset Structure

	### Data Instances

	The dataset consists in the agregation of paragraphs from wikipedia articles.

	```
	{
	'paragraph': ...,
	...
	}
	```


	### Data Fields

	- `paragraph`: This is a paragraph from the original wikipedia article.

	### Data Splits

	The dataset is splited into a train/valid/test split.

	\| \| Tain (35) \| Train (72) \| Valid \| Test \|
	\| ----- \| ------ \| ----- \| ---- \| ---- \|
	\| Number of Documents \| 2 126 \| 5 902 \| 60 \| 60 \|
	\| Number of tokens \| 351 66 \| 72 961 \| 896 \| 897 \|
	\| Vocabulary size \| 137 589 \| 205 403 \| \| \|
	\| Out of Vocabulary \| 0.8% \| 1.2% \| \| \|


	## Dataset Creation

	### Curation Rationale

	The dataset is created to evaluate French models with similart criteria than English.s

	### Source Data

	Wikitext-fr language modeling dataset consists of over 70 million tokens extracted from the set of french Wikipedia articles that are classified as "quality articles" or "good articles".
	We did not apply specific pre-treatments as transformers models might use a dedicated tokenization.s

	#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization

	We used the Wikipedia API to collect the articles since cleaning Wikipedia articles from dumps is not a trivial task.
