gollark: I have heard bad things about wikitext parsing.
gollark: Well, as of now it just uses a simple Wikipedia API parameter and doesn't actually do parsing.
gollark: It *could* actually be a really good dataset for teaching ML stuff conversation, apart from all the various horrible privacy (and quality) problems.
gollark: Their CDN is images mostly so it would be annoying to analyze, I'd mostly want message text.
gollark: I guess I'd only have to afford them for a bit until I can dump all their data onto my 500GB backup disk.
