Dataset Summary
We present a dataset, DanFEVER, intended for multilingual misinformation research. The dataset is in Danish and has the same format as the well-known English FEVER dataset. It can be used for testing methods in multilingual settings, as well as for creating models in production for the Danish language.
Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
This dataset supports the FEVER task, but in Danish.
Languages
This dataset is in Danish; the bcp47 is da_DK

Dataset Creation
Curation Rationale
A dump of the Danish Wikipedia of 13 February 2020 was stored as well as the relevant articles from Den Store Danske (excerpts only, to comply with copyright laws). Two teams of two people independently sampled evidence, and created and annotated claims from these two sites.

Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact of Dataset
The purpose of this dataset is to enable construction of fact-checking systems in Danish. A system that succeeds at this may be able to identify questionable conclusions or inferences.
Discussion of Biases
The data is drawn from relatively formal topics, and so may perform poorly outside these areas.
Other Known Limitations
