# WiNNL
WikiNews Named entity recognition and Linking (WiNNL) is a multilingual news NER & NEL benchmark based on Wikinews articles.
The dataset was created by automatically scraping and tagging news articles, and manually corrected by native speakers to ensure accuracy.
You can find more information in the paper:
https://aclanthology.org/2024.dlnld-1.3.pdf
The dataset includes the following NER classes in IOB format (`labels`):
* **PER** (Person): person names
* **LOC** (Location): geographical locations
* **ORG** (Organisation): organisations
* **AMB** (Ambiguous): entities that had an ambigous wikidata link in the article, and could be classified as multiple NER classes
* **DATE** (Date): dates (e.g. "2022-01-01", "5th of January 2022")
* **DISEASE** (Disease): diseases (e.g. "cancer", "COVID-19")
* **EVT** (Event): events (e.g. "2024 US elections")
* **SPE** (Sport Event): sports events (e.g. "World Cup", "Olympics")
* **OTH** (Other): other entities that do not fit into any of the above categories
***Please note that only the PER, ORG and LOC classes have been corrected manually.***
The `qid` column contains the Wikidata entity identifiers for the entities in the dataset, also in IOB format. |
