Deprecate wikipedia in favor of wikimedia/wikipedia
Thanks.
I think we should also host the data files currently in GCS for reproducibility: users may want to reproduce results obtained by using those data files.
@albertvillanova Addressed, so feel free to review this PR again.
A few comments:
Dataset "wikipedia" is deprecated and will soon be deleted. Use the wikimedia/wikipedia dataset instead.
Maybe "will soon redirect to wikimedia/wikipedia" ?
Alternatively we can redirect it to wikimedia/wikipedia_script so avoid any breaking change - especially given the high number of downloads for this one. WDYT ?
Maybe it's also more visible than the "script" branch on wikimedia/wikipedia
@albertvillanova
Use
datasets.load_dataset('wikimedia/wikipedia', '20231101.en')to load the dataset instead.
Maybe "Use datasets.load_dataset('wikimedia/wikipedia', f'{date}.{lang_code}') to load the dataset instead (e.g. '20231101.en')" ?
Also what about suggesting to pass num_proc=to load_dataset in the dataset card for users that want to speed it up ?

Good point! I added a tip.
Also, as discussed offline, I removed the deprecation messages since this can be addressed later in a separate PR.
