  • title: The title or headline of the original post or question on Nairaland. It provides a quick summary or the main topic of the post.

  • content: The detailed content of the original post or question. This includes the full text that describes the user's query or discussion point.

  • response: The most liked response to the original post. This is the answer or reply that received the most positive engagement from other users.

  • likes: The number of likes the response received. This indicates how many users found the response helpful or relevant.

  • section: The specific Nairaland section or category where the post was made, such as "Politics," "Romance," "Career," etc. This helps categorize the post by topic.

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

The dataset was created to provide a resource for developing AI models that can understand and generate text in a way that is culturally and contextually relevant to Nigerians. This helps in building more effective and relatable AI applications for Nigerian users.

Source Data

Data Collection and Processing

Data was collected by web scraping Nairaland, focusing on the most liked responses to posts across various sections. The data was then cleaned to remove any HTML tags, advertisements, and irrelevant content. Tools and libraries used include Python, BeautifulSoup, and pandas.

Who are the source data producers?

The source data producers are the users of Nairaland who create posts and responses. Demographic information about these users is not collected, but they represent a wide range of Nigerian society.

Annotations

Annotation process

No additional annotations were made beyond the original likes on responses. The most liked response was automatically selected as the answer.

Who are the annotators?

The annotators are the users of Nairaland whose likes determine the most relevant responses.

Personal and Sensitive Information

The dataset does not include any personal identifiable information (PII). Usernames and other identifiers have been anonymized or removed to protect privacy.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

The dataset reflects the views and biases of the Nairaland community, which may not be representative of the entire Nigerian population. Users should be cautious of these biases, especially for applications that require high accuracy and fairness.

Recommendations

Users should:

  • Be aware of potential biases and limitations.
  • Consider the ethical implications of their applications.
