Dataset Summary
This dataset contains structured textual content in Markdown format extracted from Tatar-language documents, originally in EPUB and PDF formats. The documents include books and other long-form content with rich formatting. The dataset is intended to provide clean, structured, and semantically meaningful content to support natural language processing tasks, content modeling, and research in Tatar language technologies.
The extracted Markdown preserves key structural elements such as:
- Headings and paragraphs
- Images
- Tables
- Table of contents
- Document title
- Footnotes
- Mathematical and chemical formulas (in LaTeX format)
Extraneous elements such as page numbers, headers, and footers have been removed to provide clean and usable text.
Dataset Structure
The dataset is provided in a single Parquet file with the following columns:
id
: Internal service ID (not relevant for external use)publish_year
: The year the document was published (may be missing)genre
: A comma-separated list of genres inferred by Geminitext
: The structured content in Markdown format
Each row represents one full document.
Supported Tasks and Use Cases
This dataset supports various use cases, including but not limited to:
- Pretraining or fine-tuning language models for the Tatar language
- Building Markdown-aware content models
- Semantic document analysis
- Text segmentation, summarization, or classification
- Cross-lingual NLP (e.g., aligning Tatar with other languages)
Languages
- Tatar (

Source Data
The documents were gathered from publicly available sources and converted using Gemini 2.5. The conversion process aimed to preserve as much of the original document structure and formatting as possible while excluding artifacts such as page numbers and repeated headers/footers.
