Wikimedia says the dataset hosted by Kaggle has been “designed with machine learning workflows in mind,” making it easier for AI developers to access machine-readable article data for modeling, fine-tuning, benchmarking, alignment, and analysis. The content within the dataset is openly licensed, and as of April 15th, includes research summaries, short descriptions, image links, infobox data, and article sections — minus references or non-written elements like audio files.
“As the place the machine learning community comes for tools and tests, Kaggle is extremely excited to be the host for the Wikimedia Foundation’s data,” said Kaggle partnerships lead Brenda Flynn. “Kaggle is excited to play a role in keeping this data accessible, available, and useful.”
