- Diverse Origins: Includes entries from Wikipedia dumps (2010, all languages), texts from Project Gutenberg, and lesser-known database breaches shared in underground communities.
- Optimized Format: The data is stored as plain text, alphabetically sorted without case sensitivity, and uses newline (
\n
) as the delimiter.
