KILT Wikipedia — paragraph-level (flattened)
Dataset summary
This dataset is a flattened view of the KILT knowledge source (kilt_knowledgesource.json): each row is one Wikipedia paragraph (one string in the original per-page text list), not one page per row.
- Source corpus: KILT Wikipedia knowledge source (2019/08/01 Wikipedia dump, per KILT README).
- Split:
trainonly (full paragraph stream). - Rows (train):
111,789,997 - Input shards used:
112JSONL file(s) (part-*.jsonl). - Parquet chunks before Hub push:
2236(batch_rows=50000, Hub max_shard_size=500MB).

How it was built
- Convert
kilt_knowledgesource.json(JSONL, one JSON object per line) withOSCAR_like_experiments/scripts/convert_kilt_knowledge_source_to_paragraph_jsonl.py. - Upload with
OSCAR_like_experiments/scripts/push_kilt_paragraph_jsonl_to_hub.pyfrom directory:/home/jovyan/rpt/OSCAR_like_experiments/scripts/kilt_knowledgesource.
Intended use
Sparse / dense retrieval indexing (e.g. BM25, SPLADE) where each document unit is a paragraph, matching the KILT-style chunking used in RAG pipelines.
Limitations
- Text is English Wikipedia as packaged in KILT; formatting/markup follows KILT preprocessing.
- Not an official Meta/Facebook dataset release; this is a derived redistribution — comply with Wikipedia and KILT terms.
