We extract article and summary pairs in 18 languages from WikiHow, a high quality, collaborative resource of how-to guides on a diverse set of topics written by human authors. We create gold-standard article-summary alignments across languages by aligning the images that are used to describe each how-to step in an article. As a set of baselines for further studies, we evaluate the performance of existing cross-lingual abstractive summarization methods on our dataset. We further propose a method for direct cross-lingual summarization (i.e., without requiring translation at inference time) by leveraging synthetic data and Neural Machine Translation as a pre-training step. Our method significantly outperforms the baseline approaches, while being more cost efficient during inference.",

+## Dataset in GEM
+
+### Rationale for Inclusion in GEM
+
+#### Why is the Dataset in GEM?
+
+<!-- info: What does this dataset contribute toward better generation evaluation and why is it part of GEM? -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+This dataset provides a large-scale, high-quality resource for cross-lingual summarization in 18 languages, increasing the coverage of languages for the GEM summarization task. 
+
+#### Similar Datasets
+
+<!-- info: Do other datasets for the high level task exist? -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+yes
+
+#### Unique Language Coverage
+
+<!-- info: Does this dataset cover other languages than other datasets for the same task? -->
+<!-- scope: periscope -->
+yes
+
+#### Difference from other GEM datasets
+
+<!-- info: What else sets this dataset apart from other similar datasets in GEM? -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+XSum covers English news articles, and MLSum covers news articles in German and Spanish. 
+In contrast, this dataset has how-to articles in 18 languages, substantially increasing the languages covered. Moreover, it also provides a a different domain than the other two datasets.
+
+#### Ability that the Dataset measures
+
+<!-- info: What aspect of model ability can be measured with this dataset? -->
+<!-- scope: periscope -->
+The ability to generate quality summaries across multiple languages.
+
+
+### GEM-Specific Curation
+
+#### Modificatied for GEM?
+
+<!-- info: Has the GEM version of the dataset been modified in any way (data, processing, splits) from the original curated data? -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
+yes
+
+#### GEM Modifications
+
+<!-- info: What changes have been made to he original dataset? -->
+<!-- scope: periscope -->
+`other`
+
+#### Modification Details
+
+<!-- info: For each of these changes, described them in more details and provided the intended purpose of the modification -->
+<!-- scope: microscope -->
+Previous version had separate data loaders for each language. In this version, we've created a single monolingual data loader, which contains monolingual data in each of the 18 languages. In addition, we've also created a single cross-lingual data loader across all the language pairs in the dataset.  
+
+#### Additional Splits?
+
+<!-- info: Does GEM provide additional splits to the dataset? -->
+<!-- scope: telescope -->
