+ # DatarrX MyWikisource Corpus
20
+
21
+ A high-quality, large-scale Burmese (Myanmar) language dataset extracted and refined from the official **Burmese Wikisource**. This dataset is specifically designed for Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks, including language modeling, spell checking, and formal text analysis.
22
+

33
+ ## Data Origin (Source)
34
+ The data is sourced directly from the **Wikimedia Foundation's Wikisource project for the Burmese language**. Wikisource is a digital library of free-content textual sources, which includes historical documents, classical literature, legal texts, and poems that have been proofread by the community.
35
+
36
+ ## Data Processing Details
37
+ This dataset has undergone rigorous cleaning to ensure high utility for AI/ML applications:
38
+
39
+ 1. **Namespace Filtering:** Only core encyclopedia/document entries (NS:0) were included, removing metadata and talk pages.
40
+ 2. **HTML/XML Cleaning:** All residual tags (e.g., `<p>`, `<div>`, etc.) have been removed using regex patterns.
41
+ 3. **Language Threshold:** A strict 70% Burmese character threshold was applied to every row to filter out heavy English or foreign language noise.
42
+ 4. **Deduplication:** Repeated contexts and duplicate entries were removed to prevent model overfitting.
43
+ 5. **Sentence Refinement:** - Sentences are split based on the Burmese period (။).
44
+ - Extremely short fragments (less than 10 characters) were intelligently merged with adjacent sentences to maintain contextual meaning.
45
+ 6. **Noise Mitigation:** Known noise patterns like "မေး။ ။" and "ဖြေ။ ။" have been stripped out.
46
+
47
+ > **Note:** While significant efforts were made to clean the data, users might still encounter minor noise due to the nature of historical transcriptions in the source material.
