# RuWiki-Good-Thematized-2026 — Russian Wikipedia quality articles with subjects

This Russian-language collection contains **17,251 Wikipedia articles**
with at least one subject label from a fixed taxonomy of **28 subjects**.
It is selected from the **17,413 articles** in
[Russian Wikipedia quality articles](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026),
based on the **20261001** dump. Each article retains the original title, readable
text, wikitext, direct categories, community quality status and revision links,
and adds a `topics` list. The `topics` configuration supplies the complete subject
definitions. The full category catalog remains in the source collection.

[SHA256SUMS](SHA256SUMS) covers this repository's published data. Preparation code,
environment locks and source/output pins are maintained once in the
[Full collection](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026/tree/main/preprocessing).

## Selection and subject labels

The source includes namespace-0 articles with active recommended (Добротные),
good (Хорошие) or featured (Избранные) community status. Redirects and
disambiguation pages are excluded. Multiple active statuses are retained;
former-status categories are recorded separately. These are editorial
designations at the snapshot date, not independent factual checks.

The taxonomy was inspired by the broad subject domains of
[PostNauka](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/PostNauka),
[SciNews](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/SciNews),
and [BBC News](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/BBC-News),
then adapted to Wikipedia articles and their editorial rubrics.
Its 28 subjects are not an identical copy of any of those sources' classes;
the published topic definitions specify the boundaries used here.

Subject assignment combines mappings from specific direct editorial rubrics
with AI-assisted review of ambiguous rubrics using direct subject categories and,
where needed, excerpts from the saved readable text. Mixed editorial rubrics
identify possible subjects; they do not assign all those subjects simultaneously.
Category ancestry is not propagated. Category mappings are assessed against the
subject definitions: a category name being present does not by itself establish
a narrow subject, and an interdisciplinary regional-studies category does not
automatically establish language scholarship. Incidental mentions, birthplaces, awards,
party membership or education alone do not establish a subject. Labels already
supported by specific rubrics are retained unless there is explicit contrary
evidence.

Labels are **partial** and were curated with AI assistance; they are not
exhaustive annotation or a human gold standard. Category interpretation may be
wrong, and relevant subjects may have been missed. Text review was limited to
selected passages where categories needed clarification; articles were not read
in full. A missing label is not evidence that the article lacks that subject.
Multiple labels are allowed when each has independent support. They can arise
from several specific independent rubrics, as well as from additional review;
a mixed rubric alone never establishes several labels. Articles are included when
their subject list is nonempty: **162 source articles** have no assigned subject label and are
omitted. No coverage quota, topic balancing or maximum label count was used.
Subject frequencies and intersections are consequently uneven.

Of the **17,413 source articles**, **14,945** required no additional review:
**13,984** initially had one subject and **961** had several. The remaining
**2,468** articles had evidence from **44 ambiguous editorial rubrics** and
received additional AI-assisted review. Of these, **2,306** were retained and
**162** were excluded because their final subject lists were empty. In total,
**2,054** articles had their subject lists changed. The final Thematized collection
contains **17,251 articles: 15,599 with one subject and 1,652 with several**.
Additional review records a step in annotation: it does not imply an automatic
label change and is not a confidence score. Articles without additional review
are not thereby certified correct.

The original JSON records have no NLP preprocessing or model scoring. The
optional preparation workflow below produces separate NLP CSV files without a
research train/test split; a fixed reference partition is supplied separately in
`data/splits.json`. The `corpus` split is a storage partition. Source text
has not been shortened or rewritten for subject selection. No exact duplicate source text was
removed. This collection is not a representative sample of Russian writing.

## Quick start: load the published files

The `articles` configuration is the default. `articles` and `topics` use
compressed JSON Lines and the `corpus` split, with no dataset script.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

articles = load_dataset(
    "TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-Thematized-2026", "articles", split="corpus"
)
topics = load_dataset(
    "TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-Thematized-2026", "topics", split="corpus"
)
print(len(articles))  # 17251
print(len(topics))    # 28
```

From a downloaded repository, load the JSON Lines files directly:

```python
articles = load_dataset(
    "json", data_files={"corpus": "data/articles.jsonl.gz"}, split="corpus"
)
topics = load_dataset(
    "json", data_files={"corpus": "data/topics.jsonl.gz"}, split="corpus"
)
```

The prepared NLP files `data/noow.csv` and `data/bow.csv` contain the same
17,251 article IDs, in source order, with string columns `id`, `raw_text`,
`vw_text`. Use the CSV reader for these files, separately from the repository's
JSON Lines configurations:

```python
noow = load_dataset(
    "csv",
    data_files={"corpus": "hf://datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-Thematized-2026/data/noow.csv"},
    split="corpus",
)
bow = load_dataset(
    "csv",
    data_files={"corpus": "hf://datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-Thematized-2026/data/bow.csv"},
    split="corpus",
)
```

From the root of the downloaded repository:

```python
noow = load_dataset(
    "csv", data_files={"corpus": "data/noow.csv"}, split="corpus"
)
bow = load_dataset(
    "csv", data_files={"corpus": "data/bow.csv"}, split="corpus"
)
```

CSV is the primary prepared format. The explicit `"csv"` builder above is
required: these files are not additional YAML configurations, because combining
JSON and CSV builders in one repository configuration did not load reliably.
The published CSV files have been fully read with Hugging Face Datasets.

### Optional reference splits

[data/splits.json](data/splits.json) maps each partition name to an ordered list
of article IDs. The lists are disjoint and together cover all 17,251 articles:

| Partition | Documents | Intended use |
| --- | ---: | --- |
| `fit` | 10,342 | Fit models and training-dependent vocabularies or statistics. |
| `calibration` | 3,434 | Tune parameters and make development decisions. |
| `validation` | 3,475 | Evaluate the selected procedure on held-out documents. |

The partition uses multilabel group stratification with approximate proportions
60/20/20 and seeds 20260824 and 20260825 for the two successive splits.
Near-duplicate articles, identified by Jaccard similarity ≥0.9 between sets of
five-word shingles, stay in the same partition. The procedure found one such
pair (article IDs `ruwiki/10869327` and `ruwiki/10872523` —
whose titles are "Город Казань (шмак)" and "Северная звезда (шмак)", respectively);
both articles are in `fit`. No articles were removed.

The same IDs occur in `articles`, `noow.csv`, `bow.csv` and `labels.json`.
The Hugging Face split `corpus` still contains the whole collection; use the
stored memberships when you want this reference partition. After loading
`articles` above, run from the root of a downloaded repository:

```python
import json
from pathlib import Path
from datasets import DatasetDict

splits = json.loads(Path("data/splits.json").read_text(encoding="utf-8"))
index = {doc_id: i for i, doc_id in enumerate(articles["id"])}
partitioned = DatasetDict({
    name: articles.select([index[doc_id] for doc_id in ids])
    for name, ids in splits.items()
})
print({name: len(part) for name, part in partitioned.items()})
# {'calibration': 3434, 'fit': 10342, 'validation': 3475}
```

For either CSV representation, replace `articles` with the loaded `noow` or
`bow` dataset. Selection preserves the order recorded in `splits.json`.
The shared corpus/NLP preparation workflow does not generate this supplementary
partition. Its published ngrams use all article bodies, so applying the
memberships does not make those features training-only; see the NLP preparation
section below. Text-only modeling can use `@word` and fit any further vocabulary
or statistics on `fit` alone.

To export one VW document per line without loading the CSV into memory, run this
from the downloaded repository. Choose an output path outside the repository:

```python
import csv
from pathlib import Path

csv.field_size_limit(2**31 - 1)
with Path("data/noow.csv").open(encoding="utf-8", newline="") as source:
    with Path("../noow.vw").open("w", encoding="utf-8", newline="") as output:
        for row in csv.DictReader(source):
            output.write(row["vw_text"] + "\n")
```

The field-size setting is needed only for Python's standard `csv` reader;
it does not configure Hugging Face Datasets. Use `bow.csv` in the same example
for counted features. CSV records contain whole documents and may include
embedded newlines in `raw_text`, so splitting the CSV by physical lines is unsafe.
The repository does not store a second permanent copy as VW text files.

The NLP preparation section describes the normalized namespaces and text fields.

The sidecar [data/labels.json](data/labels.json) is a JSON object mapping every
Thematized article ID to its list of subject slugs, matching both article `topics`
and the CSV `@topic` namespace. It is not a separate dataset configuration.

```python
import json
from pathlib import Path

labels = json.loads(Path("data/labels.json").read_text(encoding="utf-8"))
```

## Frozen topic provenance

[data/topic-provenance.jsonl.gz](data/topic-provenance.jsonl.gz) contains one
record for each of the **17,413 Full article IDs**, including the 162 articles
excluded from Thematized. Records are ordered by numeric page ID. This is frozen
annotation metadata, separate from corpus reconstruction and NLP build outputs;
preprocessing does not re-annotate it or create new subject evidence. It records
the initial specific-rubric assignments and the final accepted assignments,
without publishing internal annotation decision logs.

| Field | JSON type | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | string | Full article ID, `ruwiki/<page_id>`; join to Full to inspect excluded articles. |
| `initial_topics` | array of strings | Subjects supported by specific direct editorial rubrics before additional review. |
| `topics` | array of strings | Final subjects; matches `data/labels.json` for every Thematized ID. An empty list identifies an excluded Full article. |
| `additional_review` | boolean | Whether baseline ambiguous-rubric evidence led to additional AI-assisted review; not whether labels changed or a confidence score. |
| `unresolved_rubrics` | array of strings | Ambiguous direct editorial rubrics at the initial stage; retained as historical evidence even after review, not a claim that the final subjects remain unresolved. |

To stream only reviewed articles retained in Thematized, run this from the root of
the downloaded repository. Use `not row["topics"]` instead of `row["topics"]`
to inspect the excluded articles, joining their IDs to Full:

```python
import gzip
import json

with gzip.open("data/topic-provenance.jsonl.gz", "rt", encoding="utf-8") as source:
    for line in source:
        row = json.loads(line)
        if row["additional_review"] and row["topics"]:
            print(row["id"], row["initial_topics"], row["topics"])
```

## Article fields


| Field | JSON type | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | string | Stable page identity, `ruwiki/<page_id>`. |
| `page_id` | integer | Russian Wikipedia page ID. |
| `title` | string | Article title with spaces, separate from the text. |
| `wikitext` | string | XML-decoded revision wikitext. |
| `raw_text` | string | Readable text extracted from `wikitext`; not rendered HTML. |
| `wikitext_sha256` | string | SHA-256 of UTF-8 encoded `wikitext`. |
| `raw_text_sha256` | string | SHA-256 of UTF-8 encoded `raw_text`. |
| `quality_statuses` | array of strings | Active `recommended`, `good` and/or `featured` statuses from SQL. |
| `former_quality_categories` | array of strings | Direct former-status category names from SQL; may be empty. |
| `categories` | array of strings | All direct SQL category names, including maintenance categories. |
| `wikidata_id` | string or null | Wikidata QID from SQL page properties, when available. |
| `revision_id` | integer | Content revision ID from XML. |
| `revision_timestamp` | string | XML revision timestamp in UTC, such as `2026-09-26T22:17:57Z`. |
| `metadata_revision_id` | integer | SQL page revision ID; may differ from `revision_id`. |
| `page_url` | string | Page-ID URL for the source page and access to its history. |
| `revision_url` | string | Permanent URL for the content revision. |
| `topics` | array of strings | Sorted unique subject slugs; at least one in every retained article. |

The source fields are preserved exactly; only `topics` is added. The table describes the stored JSON types. Hugging Face Datasets 5.0.0 infers
`revision_timestamp` as `timestamp[s]` and `former_quality_categories` as
`List(null)` for this release, whose former-status lists are empty. Nullable
scalar fields remain nullable when loaded.

For example, the following is an actual record projected onto a few fields (the
text and remaining fields are omitted here):

```json
{
  "id": "ruwiki/21",
  "page_id": 21,
  "title": "Социология",
  "quality_statuses": [
    "featured"
  ],
  "wikidata_id": "Q21201",
  "revision_id": 155304860,
  "metadata_revision_id": 155304860,
  "revision_timestamp": "2026-09-26T22:17:57Z",
  "page_url": "https://ru.wikipedia.org/?curid=21",
  "revision_url": "https://ru.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=155304860",
  "topics": [
    "social-sciences-education"
  ]
}
```

## Topic fields and distribution

Each topic record contains the definition used to assign that subject. Join article
`topics` entries to topic `slug`.

| Field | JSON type | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `slug` | string | Stable subject identifier used in article `topics`. |
| `name_en` | string | English subject name. |
| `name_ru` | string | Russian subject name. |
| `definition_and_boundaries` | string | Russian definition and boundaries between subjects. |

Counts overlap because an article may have several subjects.

| Subject | Slug | Articles |
| --- | --- | ---: |
| Mathematics and statistics | `mathematics` | 158 |
| Physics | `physics` | 220 |
| Chemistry | `chemistry` | 132 |
| Astronomy and space | `astronomy-space` | 283 |
| Earth science | `earth-science` | 63 |

| Visual and performing arts | `visual-performing-arts` | 755 |
| Architecture and structures | `architecture` | 428 |
| Film, television and animation | `film-television-animation` | 850 |
| Music | `music` | 952 |
| Games | `games` | 784 |
| Sport | `sport` | 754 |
| Media and communication | `media-communication` | 123 |
| Food and gastronomy | `food` | 92 |
| Technology and industry | `technology` | 356 |
| Transport | `transport` | 376 |
| Society and education | `social-sciences-education` | 254 |

| Subjects per article | Articles |
| ---: | ---: |
| 1 | 15,599 |
| 2 | 1,400 |
| 3 | 197 |
| 4 | 38 |

## Sources and revision semantics


The source is the [Russian Wikipedia 20261001 dump](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/ruwiki/20261001/).
The [source and output pins](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026/blob/main/preprocessing/wikipedia-quality-corpus-20261001.json) record the names, byte sizes and SHA-256 digests of all six
inputs: page, page properties, category links and link targets SQL dumps, plus the
multistream article XML and its index. Dump mirrors may later remove this dated
snapshot; the pins identify the inputs independently of their availability.

SQL provides selection, titles, page properties and category relationships. XML
provides article content, `revision_id` and `revision_timestamp`. In the 17,413-article source collection, **11 articles**
have differing SQL and XML revision IDs; the metadata and content should not be
assumed to describe one atomic revision. Use `revision_url` to identify the exact
text revision, and retain both IDs when recording provenance. Live pages and
categories can differ from this snapshot.

Readable extraction uses `mwparserfromhell` 0.7.2 and deterministic markup cleanup.
It does not render Wikipedia or expand templates fully. Templates, infoboxes,
tables, references, captions, formulae and formatting may be removed or simplified;
fragments of markup or awkward text may remain. `wikitext` is retained so readers
can inspect these losses or apply a different extraction procedure. Neither
`raw_text` nor the category metadata is a manually corrected annotation.

## NLP preparation

The [standalone preparation code](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026/tree/main/preprocessing)
and [full instructions](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026#nlp-preparation)
are maintained in Full. Run the preparation commands from Full's
`preprocessing/` directory, including when preparing only Thematized. Local
repository directories may have any names. Replace the paths below with your own
absolute paths: `work_dir` is a separate working directory, and `selected_data`
points to this collection's `data/` directory. Choose fresh output and scratch
paths on a disk with enough space; corpus output and scratch inside a published
clone are rejected. Build and verify require Python 3.11.15 because VW escaping
depends on its Unicode database; verify needs no NLP packages. On Linux x86-64,
install the supplied locked environment. `requirements.txt` includes
`mwparserfromhell==0.7.2` for corpus extraction.

```bash
cd "/absolute/path/to/full/preprocessing"
work_dir="/absolute/path/to/ruwiki-rebuild"
selected_data="/absolute/path/to/selected/data"

conda create --name ruwiki-nlp --file conda-linux-64.lock.txt
conda activate ruwiki-nlp
python -m pip install -r pip-linux-x86_64.lock.txt
python prepare.py --stage nlp --action download --dataset selected \
  --sources-dir "$work_dir/nlp-sources"
python prepare.py --stage nlp --action build --dataset selected \
  --sources-dir "$work_dir/nlp-sources" \
  --output-dir "$work_dir/nlp-output" \
  --scratch-dir "$work_dir/nlp-scratch"
python prepare.py --stage nlp --action verify --dataset selected \
  --sources-dir "$work_dir/nlp-sources" \
  --output-dir "$work_dir/nlp-output"
```

Local paths above are independent of Hugging Face repository names. Online
loading examples and cross-repository links use the published Hugging Face IDs.
If those IDs change, the links and the downloader's pinned source addresses need
to be reviewed separately; renaming a local directory does not change them.

`--stage nlp` is the default; commands without it continue to work. Use
`--dataset both` to prepare both collections. Download checks pinned source
snapshots and supplies the pinned NLTK stopwords archive. Build runs offline.
Keep output and scratch separate from published `data/` and use fresh directories
for a new build. Full's instructions explain reuse of local JSONL files and
access to restricted source repositories.

After the structural NLP checks, the shared entry point independently compares
CSV and Thematized label byte sizes and SHA-256 hashes with published expectations
in the corpus contract, reporting `PUBLISHED_NLP_OK`. It does not rely on the
new build manifest as its authority and does not replay NLP normalization.

The workflow produces `$work_dir/nlp-output/selected/noow.csv` and `bow.csv` with exactly
`id`, `raw_text`, `vw_text` columns for all 17,251 selected IDs, preserving article
order. CSV `raw_text` is the title, two LF characters and the original readable
body with its leading CR/LF characters removed. Original JSON `raw_text` remains
the readable body alone; the source JSON files are unchanged.

The normalized VW namespaces are `@title`, `@word`, `@bigram`, `@trigram`,
`@category`, then `@topic`. `@word` contains the body only. `@category` retains
all direct categories, including service and maintenance categories. `@topic`
contains the accepted subject slugs described above, not raw Wikipedia rubric
names. `labels.json` maps article IDs to those same subject slugs. These labels
remain partial and AI-assisted; preprocessing does not improve their validity.
NOOW preserves normalized token order within each namespace, not raw prose.
BOW counts precisely the same tokens separately in every namespace.

Normalization uses spaCy Russian tokenization, pymorphy3 lemmas and the union of
spaCy and pinned NLTK Russian stopwords. Punctuation is removed; tags, URLs and
email addresses become placeholders. Cyrillic stress marks are removed and
lexical Cyrillic hyphenated compounds are retained with ASCII hyphens. Names
are not masked. There is no article removal, token trimming, research split,
model training or chain extraction. Build prints phase and document-count
progress; the manifest reports empty `@word` articles by count and ordered IDs
without dropping them.

Bigrams and trigrams use independent NLTK PMI selection after frequency ≥5,
with `nbest(32100)[100:]` for each order. This selection uses **all Thematized
article bodies**, independently of Full; it is corpus-global rather than fitted
only on a future training partition. For text-only experiments, use only `@word`
to avoid exposing category, title or subject metadata to the model. The workflow
does not establish an evaluation without information from held-out documents.

Load a generated CSV directly:

```python
from pathlib import Path

# Use the same work directory as in the shell commands.
work_dir = Path("/absolute/path/to/ruwiki-rebuild")
output_dir = work_dir / "nlp-output/selected"
noow = load_dataset(
    "csv", data_files={"corpus": str(output_dir / "noow.csv")}, split="corpus"
)
bow = load_dataset(
    "csv", data_files={"corpus": str(output_dir / "bow.csv")}, split="corpus"
)
```

A measured NLP build of **both Full and Thematized** from ready JSONL snapshots took
42 min 5.83 s, with 10.58 GiB peak resident memory, approximately 3.74 GiB of final
output and 0.53 GiB of scratch. These are measurements from one environment,
not Thematized-only estimates or measurements of replay from raw Wikimedia dumps.

## Rebuild Thematized from source data

Full's [corpus replay instructions](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026#rebuild-the-corpus-from-wikimedia-dumps)
cover the six pinned 20261001 dumps, explicit download resumption with `--resume`,
offline construction and independent published-payload verification. The shared
[source and output contract](https://huggingface.co/datasets/TopicNet/RuWiki-Good-2026/blob/main/preprocessing/wikipedia-quality-corpus-20261001.json)
contains source dump and annotation pins. The new public path from raw dumps has
**not yet been run end to end**; its runtime and resource requirements remain
unmeasured.

For the complete path, keep the same Full `preprocessing/` working directory
and path variables as in the NLP commands above:

```bash
python prepare.py --stage corpus --action download --dataset both \
  --sources-dir "$work_dir/dump-sources"
# Add --resume explicitly when continuing an interrupted download.
python prepare.py --stage corpus --action build --dataset both \
  --sources-dir "$work_dir/dump-sources" \
  --annotations-dir "$selected_data" \
  --output-dir "$work_dir/corpus-output" \
  --scratch-dir "$work_dir/corpus-scratch"
python prepare.py --stage corpus --action verify --dataset both \
  --sources-dir "$work_dir/dump-sources" \
  --output-dir "$work_dir/corpus-output"
```

This writes `$work_dir/corpus-output/full/articles.jsonl.gz` and `categories.jsonl.gz`,
plus `$work_dir/corpus-output/selected/articles.jsonl.gz` and `topics.jsonl.gz`. The
annotation directory must already contain this collection's `labels.json` and
`topics.jsonl.gz`. Reconstruction retains the published mapping and does not
rerun AI annotation or establish new evidence for label correctness.

If a previously accepted Full corpus is already available, build only Thematized
without rereading the dumps. From the same Full `preprocessing/` directory,
resolve Full's data path:

```bash
full_data="$(cd ../data && pwd -P)"
python prepare.py --stage corpus --action build --dataset selected \
  --sources-dir "$full_data" \
  --full-dir "$full_data" \
  --annotations-dir "$selected_data" \
  --output-dir "$work_dir/selected-output" \
  --scratch-dir "$work_dir/selected-scratch"
python prepare.py --stage corpus --action verify --dataset selected \
  --sources-dir "$full_data" \
  --output-dir "$work_dir/selected-output"
```

This Thematized-only workflow has been verified byte for byte against the published
archive of all 17,251 articles, the labels file and the topic definitions.

Use fresh output and scratch directories. Corpus verification checks exact
compressed output bytes against the separately bundled published payload pins;
it does not treat a newly generated manifest as independent evidence. To prepare
NLP CSVs from `$work_dir/corpus-output`, run the earlier NLP commands with
`--sources-dir "$work_dir/corpus-output"` and fresh `--output-dir "$work_dir/replay-nlp-output"` and
`--scratch-dir "$work_dir/replay-nlp-scratch"`. Run NLP download first to supply NLTK
stopwords, then offline build and verify.

small, editorially selected portion of Russian Wikipedia, not a representative
sample of Russian writing or an evenly balanced subject collection. Quality
status does not guarantee accuracy, neutrality, completeness or suitability for
any downstream application. Articles can contain sensitive, biased, outdated or
offensive material. The partial subject labels described here do not establish a complete reference
annotation. The optional reference splits above provide one document partition;
further downstream preprocessing, deduplication and any alternative split policy
must be specified for each study.
