## Dataset Description

This dataset is a plain text version of pages from [wiktionary.org](https://wiktionary.org/) in French language.
The text is without HTML tags nor wiki templates.
It just includes markdown syntax for headers, lists and tables.
See [Notes on data formatting](#notes-on-data-formatting) for more details.

It was created by [LINAGORA](https://labs.linagora.com/) and [OpenLLM France](https://openllmfrance.org/)
from the [Wikimedia dumps](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/enterprise_html/runs),
using code in [https://github.com/OpenLLM-France/wikiplaintext](https://github.com/OpenLLM-France/wikiplaintext).
                
### Size
                
The amount of data for the latest dump (20231220) is:
|                 | **French** |
| :---------------|--------: |
| # documents     |   650 087 |
| # paragraphs    |   3 410 374 |
| # words         |   53 086 456 |
| # characters    |   346 916 964 |
| size on disk    |   1.9G |

### Example use (python)

Load the full dataset:

```python
import datasets

ds = datasets.load_dataset("OpenLLM-France/wiktionary", streaming=True, split="train")
```

Load only a small subset:
```python
ds = datasets.load_dataset("OpenLLM-France/wiktionary", "sample", split="train")
```

A version "`repeated_headers`" of the dataset is available, where headers are repeated before each section
(see https://huggingface.co/datasets/OpenLLM-France/wikipedia#alternative-markdown-syntax).
This dataset can be obtained with:
```python
ds = datasets.load_dataset("OpenLLM-France/wiktionary", revision="repeated_headers", split="train")
```


## Data fields

The data fields are the same among all configurations:
- `id` (int): ID of the page.
- `url` (`str`): URL of the page.
- `title` (`str`): Title of the page.
- `text` (`str`): Text content of the page.

For example:
```
{'id': 847027,
 'url': 'https://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/D%C3%A9partement_de_Rinconada',
 'title': 'Département de Rinconada',
 'text': "# Département de Rinconada\n\nLe département de Rinconada est une des 16 subdivisions de la province de Jujuy, en Argentine.
