### Describe the bug

When loading the dataset [wikianc-en](https://huggingface.co/datasets/cyanic-selkie/wikianc-en) which I created using [this](https://github.com/cyanic-selkie/wikianc) code, I get the following error:

```

pyarrow.lib.ArrowInvalid: Unable to merge: Field paragraph_anchors has incompatible types: list<: struct<start: uint32 not null, end: uint32 not null, qid: uint32, pageid: uint32, title: string not null> not null> vs list<item: struct<start: uint32, end: uint32, qid: uint32, pageid: uint32, title: string>>
```

This only happens when I load the `train` split, indicating that the size of the dataset is the deciding factor. 

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("cyanic-selkie/wikianc-en", split="train")
```

### Expected behavior

The dataset should load normally without any errors.
