About Dataset

The following dataset is a collection of JSON sets that contain most of the Hebrew Wikipedia.

About Data collection methodology

The strategy behind the methodology for collecting the data is as follows:

• Crawl Hebrew Wikipedia: Begin by crawling through Hebrew Wikipedia to collect all redirect links on each page.
• Breadth-First Search (BFS): For each page, apply a BFS-like strategy to ensure that every link is scraped.
• Link Collection: Collect the links as tuples in a link file, where each tuple contains a page name and its corresponding link (, ).
• Data Scraping and Cleaning: After crawling and link collection, iterate over the links and scrape all paragraphs. Apply cleaning methodologies to ensure data cleanliness. Additionally, collect the page summary for each page, if available.

Description of the data
