-# Dataset Card for "maltese-news-classification"
+# Maltese News Categories
 
-[More Information needed](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#how-to-contribute-to-the-dataset-cards)
+A multi-label topic classification dataset for Maltese News Articles.
+
+## Data Collection
+
+The data was collected from the [`press_mt` subset from Korpus Malti v4.0](https://huggingface.co/datasets/MLRS/korpus_malti/viewer/press_mt).
+Article contents were cleaned to filter out JavaScript, CSS, & repeated non-Maltese sub-headings.
+The labels are based on the `category` field from this corpus.
+Additional filtering & cleaning was performed as follows:
+1. Documents with generic categories (`News`, `Local`, `Headlines`, `Uncategorised`, `Archived`) were ignored.
+2. Some categories were merged as deemed necessary by native Maltese speakers to standardise tags assigned by different news portals (for example merging `European Union` & `Unjoni Ewropea` under `EU`).
+3. Articles with categories having less than 100 articles were ignored.
+4. Categories having a >75% co-occurence with another category are dropped.
+
+The different tags & their distribution is shown in the following table.
+
