- Size: 5 records in
data/philosophy.json. This is a small hand-assembled sample, not a complete or training-scale dataset. - The card does not document how records were collected or checked; treat contents as UNVERIFIED unless confirmed against the cited originals.
Size and status
This repository is a small seed sample: 5 records in data/philosophy.json (1.3 KB). It is meant for building and testing tools, not as a comprehensive or authoritative dataset; where the description above sounds broader, these counts are the accurate ones. Check the original sources before relying on it.
