Does Ultra-FineWeb Include Timestamps or Temporal Metadata?

#15
by AshleyLL - opened

From what I've seen so far, it seems that the dataset contains no explicit timestamp-related fields like created_timestamp or crawled_timestamp.

My question is:

  1. Is Ultra-FineWeb completely devoid of time-related metadata?
  2. If so, is there a version or variant of this dataset that does include timestamp information?

Thank you in advance for your help!

We just use FineWeb as the source data, and did not add any metadata. I believe it can match the FineWeb and get the metadata

Just to make sure I understand correctly β€” are you suggesting that we can retrieve timestamp or other metadata by aligning the ultrafineweb dataset with the original FineWeb dataset? If so, could you please clarify how this matching process should be done in practice?

For example:

Should we match the two datasets based on the content field?

Thank you for your clarification!

I thought using the content hash could finish this processing. For Spark, you can use intersect.

Thanks a lot! Your help is really appreciated.
