Battle of Belleau Wood | President Trump started the month visiting Kenosha, Wisconsin, where riots had broken out due to the police shooting of Jacob Blake in August. Trump referred to the riots as acts of "domestic terror" and placed further emphasis on maintaining "law and order." His opponent, Biden, in a message to fundraisers, accused Trump of "trying to scare the hell out of America." Biden himself visited Kenosha two days after Trump in what was his first campaign trip to the swing state of Wisconsin. During the appearance, Biden delivered a speech on racial inequality while wearing a mask, discussing the "original sin" of slavery. He also visited the family of Jacob Blake and spoke to Blake on the phone. The Trump campaign criticized Biden for not denouncing Antifa and for making the trip despite claiming previously that it was not safe to do so due to the coronavirus pandemic. Wisconsin governor Tony Evers, a Democrat, said he would have preferred that neither Trump nor Biden had made the stop. At least three unfavorable claims about Trump surfaced in early September. First, after CNN reporter and former Bill Clinton White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart questioned whether the President's impromptu visit to Walter Reed Hospital last November was the result of a stroke, Trump alleged the media was falsely claiming he had suffered from "mini-strokes." Thereafter, Matt Drudge posted a report from "The Hill" about Trump's "mini-strokes" tweet as the top story on the "Drudge Report". Trump attacked Drudge as a consistent Trump opponent and his campaign called for CNN to fire Lockhart. Next, "The Atlantic" claimed that during a 2018 trip to France, Trump refused to visit a cemetery of U.S. soldiers killed during the World War I | and referred to the soldiers buried there as "losers" and "suckers." Furthermore, Trump allegedly questioned whether the U.S. allied with the correct side during the war. Aides publicly denied the story as did Trump-critic and former National Security Advisor John Bolton. Nevertheless, others, including Fox News reporter Jennifer Griffin, confirmed key parts of the story. Trump called on Fox News to fire Griffin. Lastly, excerpts from Bob Woodward's book "Rage", for which Trump gave insider access, revealed Trump downplayed the coronavirus in February in order to avoid public panic. Trump confirmed the claim, arguing it was not in the national interest to stir up panic about the virus. Biden, while campaigning in Michigan, called Trump's action "a life-and-death betrayal of the American people." He described it as "beyond despicable" and "almost criminal." | en | On the campaign trail in the USA, September 2020 | October 29, 2020 | 1474180 |

Dataset Creation
Curation Rationale
This dataset helps address the task of event linking. KB linking is extensively studied for entities, but its unclear if the same methodologies can be extended for linking mentions to events from KB. We use Wikidata as our KB, as it allows for linking mentions from multilingual Wikipedia and Wikinews articles.
Source Data
Initial Data Collection and Normalization
First, we utilize spatial & temporal properties from Wikidata to identify event items. Second, we identify corresponding multilingual Wikipedia pages for each Wikidata event item. Third, we pool hyperlinks from multilingual Wikipedia & Wikinews articles to these event items.
Who are the source language producers?
The documents in XLEL-WD are written by Wikipedia and Wikinews contributors in respective languages.
Annotations
Annotation process
This dataset was originally collected automatically from Wikipedia, Wikinews and Wikidata. It was post-processed to improve data quality.
Who are the annotators?
The annotations in XLEL-WD (hyperlinks from Wikipedia/Wikinews to Wikidata) are added the original Wiki contributors.
Personal and Sensitive Information

Considerations for Using the Data
Social Impact of Dataset

Discussion of Biases

Other Known Limitations
XLEL-WD v1.0.0 mostly caters to eventive nouns from Wikidata. It does not include any links to other event items from Wikidata such as disease outbreak (Q3241045), military offensive (Q2001676) and war (Q198).
