Context
Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia where everyone can contribute and modify, delete, or add text to the articles.
Because of this, every day there is newly created text and, most importantly, new corrections made to preexisting sentences.
The idea is to find the corrections made to these sentences and create a dataset with X,y sentence pairs.
