Workflow

To propose a new dataset be added to the Pile, open an issue with the tag . Your issue should include a description of the dataset, its size, what language(s) it is in, a link to the data, and any other relevant information. If a project manger approves your proposal, they will change its label to and add it to . Datasets that we elect to not include in the current version of the Pile will receive a or label. While we welcome multilingual datasets and plan on including non-English datasets in the future, the initial release of the Pile will be English-only and all submissions of non-English datasets will be Deferred.

To claim an unclaimed dataset, leave a comment on one of our unassigned issues. Once an dataset has been assigned to you, make the necessary changes to datsets.py and pile.py in a fork and submit a pull request. If you require, you can also submit a script for processing the data as shown here.

To raise an issue that is not proposing a new dataset, open an issue with the tag or as appropriate.
