Dataset Card Creation Guide
Dataset Summary
Wikitext-fr language modeling dataset consists of over 70 million tokens extracted from the set of french Wikipedia articles that are classified as "quality articles" or "good articles". It is designed to mirror the english benchmark from Stephen Merity, Caiming Xiong, James Bradbury, and Richard Socher. 2016.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
language-modeling
: The dataset can be used to evaluate the generation abilites of a model. Success on this task is typically measured by achieving a low perplexity. The (model name currently achieves 12.9.
Languages
The dataset is in French.
Dataset Structure
Data Instances
The dataset consists in the agregation of paragraphs from wikipedia articles.
{
'paragraph': ...,

Data Fields
paragraph
: This is a paragraph from the original wikipedia article.
Data Splits
The dataset is splited into a train/valid/test split.

Dataset Creation
Curation Rationale
The dataset is created to evaluate French models with similart criteria than English.s
Source Data
Wikitext-fr language modeling dataset consists of over 70 million tokens extracted from the set of french Wikipedia articles that are classified as "quality articles" or "good articles". We did not apply specific pre-treatments as transformers models might use a dedicated tokenization.s
Initial Data Collection and Normalization
We used the Wikipedia API to collect the articles since cleaning Wikipedia articles from dumps is not a trivial task.
