{"url":"/dataset/wikisuggest","name":"WikiSuggest","full_name":null,"description_markdown":"To collect WikiSuggest, Google Suggest API is used to harvest natural language questions and submit them to Google Search. Whenever Google Search returns a box with a short answer from Wikipedia, an example from the question, answer, and the Wikipedia document are created. If the answer string is missing from the document this often implies a spurious question-answer pair, such as (‘what time is half time in rugby’, ‘80 minutes, 40 minutes’). Question-answer pairs without the exact answer string are pruned. Fifty examples after filtering are examined and 54% were found to be well-formed question-answer pairs where answers in the document can be grounded, 20% contained answers without textual evidence in the document (the answer string exists in an irreleveant context), and 26% contain incorrect QA pairs.\r\n\r\nSource: [Coarse-to-Fine Question Answering for Long Documents](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1611.01839.pdf)","description_withheld":null,"homepage":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1611.01839.pdf","introduced_date":"2017-07-01","introduced_date_note":null,"introduced_by":{"paper":"/paper/coarse-to-fine-question-answering-for-long","title":"Coarse-to-Fine Question Answering for Long Documents","first_author":"Eunsol Choi","url":null},"license":null,"modalities":[{"name":"Texts","url":"/datasets/modality/texts"}],"tasks":[{"name":"Question Answering","url":"/task/question-answering","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/question-answering"},{"name":"Reading Comprehension","url":"/task/reading-comprehension","datasets_with_task":"/datasets/task/reading-comprehension"}],"languages":[],"variants":["WikiSuggest"],"data_loaders":[],"num_papers_in_archive":1,"source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28"},"benchmarks":[],"papers_with_a_benchmark_row":[],"syntology_totals":{"read_at":"2026-09-24T18:15:14+00:00","papers_with_samples":0,"samples_harvested":0,"samples_ran":0,"samples_unverified":0,"pointer_only_for_licence":0,"papers_with_no_sample_that_ran":0,"note":"the per-paper counts above, summed; not a rate"},"papers_note":"The archive never published its papers-using-dataset list; these are papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks."}
