+ Per-record contributor attribution is stored in the `author` column. The accompanying `global_voices.attribution.jsonl` sidecar additionally preserves each released article's title, canonical URL, license URL and modification notice. Twelve historical records had no machine-readable contributor field; full-text review recovered Didem Tali and Khalid Ibrahim for two of them. Ten records without an identifiable contributor use the explicitly organizational attribution `Global Voices`; this must not be interpreted as a known individual author.

Articles may nevertheless contain captions, URLs, social-media posts and quotations from third-party works; rights in those materials may remain with their respective authors. Article-level CC BY 3.0 is not asserted independently for photographs, videos, embeds or separately quoted works.

3
+ Polish-language civic-media and public-interest journalism from [Global Voices](https://pl.globalvoices.org/), produced by its international community of writers and volunteer translators.

+ ## Dataset description
6
+
7
+ - **Source (upstream):** https://pl.globalvoices.org/
8
+ - **Domain:** civic media, news and public-interest journalism
9
+ - **Language:** Polish (pl)
10
+ - **License:** `CC-BY-3.0`
11
+ - **Created (range):** 2008-11-04, 2023-05-24
12
+ - **Added:** 2026-07-15
13
+
14
+ Global Voices describes its Lingua translations as human-made work performed by a volunteer translator community. The dataset primarily represents edited, translated journalism rather than conversational Polish or text necessarily authored originally in Polish.

16
+ ## Statistics
17
+
18
+ | documents | characters | tokens (`cl100k_base` proxy) |
19
+ |---:|---:|---:|
20
+ | 2,040 | 10,073,628 | 3,715,020 |
21
+
22
+ The Parquet schema matches DynaWord:
23
+
24
+ `id, text, source, added, created, token_count, license, author`
25
+
26
+ Published files:
27
+
28
+ - `global_voices.parquet` — cleaned article text and DynaWord metadata;
29
+ - `global_voices.stats.json` — release statistics;
30
+ - `global_voices.attribution.jsonl` — title, canonical article URL, contributor attribution, license URL and modification notice for every document;
31
+ - `NOTICE.md` — licensing and attribution notice.
32
+
33
+ ## Provenance
34
+
35
+ Articles were acquired directly from the Polish Global Voices website through its official publication interfaces, rather than from a third-party corpus. Each released ID is linked to the corresponding canonical article URL in `global_voices.attribution.jsonl`.
36
+
37
+ The source release contained 2,044 records. Four records below the minimum quality and length requirements were excluded, leaving 2,040 documents. The final source contains no exact duplicate documents.
38
+
39
+ ## Cleaning
40
+
41
+ The release received a reviewed cleaning pass. Redundant source-language passages were removed where the corresponding Polish translation was retained, together with extraction artifacts and obsolete interface text. Intentional quotations and source-language material required for meaning or documentary context were preserved.
42
+
43
+ The cleaning process did not use machine translation or automatic speech transcription. It should not be interpreted as making every document strictly monolingual.
44
+
45
+ ## Licensing — traceable basis and attribution
46
+
47
+ CC BY 3.0 was verified from the article-level license link published with each retained Global Voices article. Each released record carries `CC-BY-3.0` metadata. Contributor roles are preserved in the `author` column where available, distinguishing original authors from Polish translators.
48
+
49
+ Because the fixed DynaWord schema does not contain article titles or URLs, the attribution sidecar maps every released `id` to its title, canonical URL, contributor attribution, license URL and modification notice. It contains one unique URL-bearing record for each of the 2,040 Parquet documents.
50
+
51
+ Recommended attribution:
52
+
53
+ > Global Voices; the original author(s) and Polish translator(s) listed in the attribution sidecar; canonical article URL; CC BY 3.0. Article text was extracted and cleaned; redundant source-language passages were removed where a Polish translation was retained.
54
+
55
+ Binary photographs, videos and embedded media are not redistributed. Articles may contain quotations, captions or social-media text whose separate rights remain with their respective authors.
56
+
57
+ ## Limitations and recommended use
58
+
59
+ - The dataset represents edited online journalism and human translation, not the full distribution of contemporary Polish.
60
+ - Translationese and source-specific editorial conventions may be present.
61
+ - Some intentional source-language quotations remain inside otherwise Polish articles.
62
+ - Coverage ends in May 2023.
63
+ - Cross-source and near-duplicate removal against other DynaWord sources remains part of the complete corpus build.
64
+
65
+ Global Voices is best used as a complementary source of contemporary civic-media and journalistic Polish, rather than as a standalone representation of colloquial or natively authored Polish.
