  News article revision histories have the potential to give us novel insights
across varied fields of linguistics and social sciences. In this work, we
present, to our knowledge, the first publicly available dataset of news article
revision histories, or NewsEdits.
  Our dataset is multilingual; it contains 1,278,804 articles with 4,609,430
versions from over 22 English- and French-language newspaper sources based in
three countries. Across version pairs, we count 10.9 million added sentences;
8.9 million changed sentences and 6.8 million removed sentences. Within the
changed sentences, we derive 72 million atomic edits. NewsEdits is, to our
knowledge, the largest corpus of revision histories of any domain.
