Dataset Card for SCP-RECURSAL

Item ID: SCP-RECURSAL

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures:

SCP-Recursal is to be stored on the Huggingface (HF) Servers, with backup copies maintained on other secure servers.
Access to SCP-Recursal is unrestricted, and it may be freely used and redistributed without authorization.

Description: SCP-Recursal is a dataset comprising ~[TBD]B Tokens (llama-2-7b-chat-tokenizer) / ~[TBD]B Tokens (RWKV Tokenizer) scraped from the SCP Wiki website (scp-wiki.wikidot.com).
The dataset is curated by Darok, released by KaraKaraWitch and funded by Recursal.ai.

SCP-Recursal is a comprehensive collection of tales, series, from the SCP Wiki, spanning from 2008 to 2022.
The dataset was created by scraping lists of tales for each year, fetching content from tale pages using BeautifulSoup selectors, and filtering out unnecessary information. The same process was applied to series scp-series-1 to scp-series-8.

The cleaning process involved removing author credits, "More articles by" sections, "Hide list" buttons, ratings, and special characters until the next line. Unicode characters were also cleaned, and unnecessary text was removed. The resulting dataset is a cohesive collection of SCP-related content, ideal for language modeling tasks.

Experiments:

Experiment 1: "SCP-Recursal: The Ultimate Language Model"

Researchers used SCP-Recursal to train a language model, which was then tasked with generating a new SCP article.
Result: The model produced [DATA EXPUNGED]. Due to it's Memetic Effect, the computer that was in use was incinerated.
Conclusion: [DATA EXPUNGED]

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

SCP-Recursal as mentioned in the SCP-Article above, is a dataset of ~[TBD]B Tokens (llama-2-7b-chat-tokenizer) / ~[TBD]B Tokens (RWKV Tokenizer) of SCP Tales and Stories

Curated by: Darok
Funded by [optional]: Recursal.ai (I work there lol)

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Primarily used for language modeling.

Languages

Mainly written in english.

Scraping & Filtering

Scraping by fetching each page with BeautifulSoup. Filtering is done base on a per line basis. removing certain patterns within lines of text. The file tools/clean.py contains the tools used to post process the stories. The tools folder contains all the tools used to filter and crawl the wiki.

Data Fields

There is only 1 field (text) which contains a string to an article. No additional metadata is included.

Dataset Curators

This dataset was mainly Darok's work. I (KaraKaraWitch) only assisted them with questions and the writing of the dataset card.
