Dataset Card for Wikipedia

Table of Contents

Dataset Description

Dataset Summary

Wikipedia dataset containing cleaned articles of all languages. The datasets are built from the Wikipedia dump (https://dumps.wikimedia.org/) with one split per language. Each example contains the content of one full Wikipedia article with cleaning to strip markdown and unwanted sections (references, etc.).

The articles are parsed using the mwparserfromhell tool.

To load this dataset you need to install Apache Beam and mwparserfromhell first:

pip install apache_beam mwparserfromhell

Then, you can load any subset of Wikipedia per language and per date this way:

from datasets import load_dataset

load_dataset("wikipedia", language="sw", date="20220120", beam_runner=...)

where you can pass as beam_runner any Apache Beam supported runner for (distributed) data processing (see here). Pass "DirectRunner" to run it on your machine.

You can find the full list of languages and dates here.

Some subsets of Wikipedia have already been processed by HuggingFace, and you can load them just with:

from datasets import load_dataset

load_dataset("wikipedia", "20220301.en")

The list of pre-processed subsets is:

  • "20220301.de"
  • "20220301.en"
  • "20220301.fr"
  • "20220301.frr"
  • "20220301.it"
  • "20220301.simple"

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The dataset is generally used for Language Modeling.

Languages

You can find the list of languages here.

Dataset Structure

We show detailed information for up to 5 configurations of the dataset.

Data Instances

An example looks as follows:

{'id': '1',
 'url': 'https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/April',
 'title': 'April',
