### Dataset Summary

The WikiText language modeling dataset is a collection of over 100 million tokens extracted from the set of verified
Good and Featured articles on Wikipedia. The dataset is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.

Compared to the preprocessed version of Penn Treebank (PTB), WikiText-2 is over 2 times larger and WikiText-103 is over
110 times larger. The WikiText dataset also features a far larger vocabulary and retains the original case, punctuation
and numbers - all of which are removed in PTB. As it is composed of full articles, the dataset is well suited for models
that can take advantage of long term dependencies.

Each subset comes in two different variants:
- Raw (for character level work) contain the raw tokens, before the addition of the <unk> (unknown) tokens.
- Non-raw (for word level work) contain only the tokens in their vocabulary (wiki.train.tokens, wiki.valid.tokens, and wiki.test.tokens).
The out-of-vocabulary tokens have been replaced with the the <unk> token.
