## Dataset Description

This dataset is a cleaned and reformatted version of **roneneldan/TinyStoriesInstruct**.

The following changed were made to improve data quality and make it more suitable for instruction-tuning:

* **Filtered repetitive openings:** Samples with repeated phrases like "once upon a time" at the beginning were removed.
* **Removed empty or invalid entries:** Any stories with missing or empty content were excluded.
* **Standardized instruction-response format:** Each example is converted into the following structure:
  ```
  ### Instruction:
  {instruction}

  ### Response:
  {response}{tokenizer.eos_token}
  ```
