Lists punctuation

#1
by ola13 - opened

I seem to remember that scraping wikipedia lists used to be some kind of a challenge in the past and some snapshots didn't have list info at all. It seems not to be the case here but no punctuation seems to be retained from lists. I wonder if maybe it would be better to retain some list syntax. An example:

from datasets import load_dataset

wiki = load_dataset("olm/wikipedia", language="en", date="20220920")
print(wiki["train"][1313]["text"])

cf. the actual Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tethydidae

The output to the code snippet above looks as follows:

Tethydidae is a family of dendronotid nudibranch gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Tritonioidea.

The original spelling (subfamily) is Tethydia. It was placed on the Official List by Opinion 1182 of ICZN (1981: 174), which also ruled that the name should be corrected to Tethydidae (Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).

Taxonomy 
This family is within the clade Cladobranchia and has no subfamilies (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005).
