English web documents extracted from the Common Crawl CC-MAIN-2020-50 snapshot, intended as a pre-2022 human-authored text corpus (i.e. crawled before generative-model output became widespread on the web).
Pipeline
- Stream — Common Crawl WET records, prefiltered on length, replacement-character ratio, and printable/alphabetic character ratios.
- Language filter —
langdetectat p >= 0.95 on three sampled spans of each document; all spans must be English. - Extraction — the matching WARC record is fetched and the HTML re-extracted with Trafilatura 2.0.0 (
favor_precision), keeping documents of at least 200 words. - Dedup — exact normalized-text hash, canonical URL, and 64-bit SimHash near-duplicate removal at Hamming distance <= 3.
- Cross-snapshot dedup — this snapshot is the primary; documents shared with the other snapshot are kept here.
Fields
trafilatura_text is generally the field you want; text is kept for reference.
