Dataset Statistics
Annotation Overview
Each document comes with annotations describing its content, such as content quality, information density, and educational value. Each bar shows the share of documents at each level of one annotation, from worst (light) to best (dark). To learn more about the annotations and how to use them, see the annotations section of the main readme.
Processing
Redirects, empty and duplicate texts, and pages whose complete parsed content says Ennå ikke fri or Endå ikkje fri (“Not yet free”) are removed. Page titles are retained.
