### Data Splits
The dataset has 2 splits: _train_ and _test_. Train split contains 21949 documents while test split contains 5536 documents. In total, dataset contains 27485 documents classified into 59 event types.
#### Differences from the original split(s)
Originally, the dataset is split into three splits: train, validation and test. For the purposes of this repository, original splits were joined back together and divided into train and test splits while making sure that splits were stratified across document sources (news and wiki) and event types.
Originally, the `title` column additionally contained information from `date` and `metadata` columns. They are now separated into three columns: `date`, `metadata` and `title`.
