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, which can be installed with:

pip install 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")

You can specify num_proc= in load_dataset to generate the dataset in parallel.

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"
