Some languages in wikipedia dataset are not loading
Some wikipedia languages have already been processed by us and are hosted on our google storage. This is the case for "fr" and "en" for example.

For other smaller languages (in terms of bytes), they are directly downloaded and parsed from the wikipedia dump site.
Parsing can take some time for languages with hundreds of MB of xml.

Let me know if you encounter an error or if you feel that is is taking too long for you.
We could process those that really take too much time Ok, thanks for clarifying, that makes sense. I will time those examples later today and post back here.

Also, it seems that not all dumps should use the same date. For instance, I was checking the Spanish dump doing the following:
```
data = nlp.load_dataset('wikipedia', '20200501.es', beam_runner='DirectRunner', split='train')
```

I got the error below because this URL does not exist: https://dumps.wikimedia.org/eswiki/20200501/dumpstatus.json. So I checked the actual available dates here https://dumps.wikimedia.org/eswiki/ and there is no 20200501. If one tries for a date available in the link, then the nlp library does not allow such a request because is not in the list of expected datasets.

``` Thanks ! This will be very helpful.

About the date issue, I think it's possible to use another date with

```python
load_dataset("wikipedia", language="es", date="...", beam_runner="...")
```

However we've not processed wikipedia dumps for other dates than 20200501 (yet ?)

One more thing that is specific to 20200501.es: it was available once but the `mwparserfromhell` was not able to parse it for some reason, so we didn't manage to get a processed version of 20200501.es (see #321 ) Cool! Thanks for the trick regarding different dates!

I checked the download/processing time for retrieving the Arabic Wikipedia dump, and it took about 3.2 hours. I think that this may be a bit impractical when it comes to working with multiple languages (although I understand that storing those datasets in your Google storage may not be very appealing either). 

For the record, here's what I did:
```python
import nlp
import time

def timeit(filename):
    elapsed = time.time()
    data = nlp.load_dataset('wikipedia', filename, beam_runner='DirectRunner', split='train')
    elapsed = time.time() - elapsed
    print(f"Loading the '{filename}' data took {elapsed:,.1f} seconds...")
    return data

data = timeit('20200501.ar')
```

Here's the output:

I tried your suggestion about the date and the function does not accept the language and date keywords. I tried both on `nlp` v0.4 and the new `datasets` library (v1.0.2):
```
load_dataset("wikipedia", language="es", date="20200601", beam_runner='DirectRunner', split='train')
```
For now, my quick workaround to keep things moving was to simply change the date inside the library at this line: [https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/datasets/wikipedia/wikipedia.py#L403](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/master/datasets/wikipedia/wikipedia.py#L403)

Note that the date and languages are valid: [https://dumps.wikimedia.org/eswiki/20200601/dumpstatus.json](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/eswiki/20200601/dumpstatus.json)

Any suggestion is welcome :) @lhoestq 


## **[UPDATE]**

The workaround I mentioned fetched the data, but then I faced another issue (even the log says to report this as bug):
```
ERROR:root:mwparserfromhell ParseError: This is a bug and should be reported. Info: C tokenizer exited with non-empty token stack.
```

Here's the full stack (which says that there is a key error caused by this key: `KeyError: '000nbsp'`):

KeyError: "000nbsp [while running 'train/Clean content']"``` @lhoestq Any updates on this? I have similar issues with the Romanian dump, tnx. Hey @gaguilar ,

I just found the ["char2subword" paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2010.12730.pdf) and I'm really interested in trying it out on own vocabs/datasets like for historical texts (I've already [trained some lms](https://github.com/stefan-it/europeana-bert) on newspaper articles with OCR errors).

Do you plan to release the code for your paper or is it possible to get the implementation 🤔 Many thanks :hugs:  Hi @stefan-it! Thanks for your interest in our work! We do plan to release the code, but we will make it available once the paper has been published at a conference. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi @lhoestq, do you have any insights for this issue by any chance? Thanks! This is an issue on the `mwparserfromhell` side. You could try to update `mwparserfromhell` and see if it fixes the issue. If it doesn't we'll have to create an issue on their repo for them to fix it.
But first let's see if the latest version of `mwparserfromhell` does the job. I think the work around  as suggested in the issue [#886] is not working for several languages, such as `id`. For example, I tried all the dates to download dataset for `id` langauge from the following link: (https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/886) [https://dumps.wikimedia.org/idwiki/](https://dumps.wikimedia.org/idwiki/ )

Moreover the downloading speed for `non-en` language is very very slow. And interestingly the download stopped after approx a couple minutes due to the read time-out. I tried numerous times and the results is same. Is there any feasible way to download non-en language using huggingface?

Regarding the time outs, it must come either from an issue on the wikimedia host side, or from your internet connection.
Feel free to try again several times. I was trying to download dataset for `es` language, however I am getting the following error:

``` Hi ! This looks related to this issue: https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/1994
Basically the parser that is used (mwparserfromhell) has some issues for some pages in `es`.
We already reported some issues for `es` on their repo at https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell/issues/247 but it looks like there are still a few issues. Might be a good idea to open a new issue on the mwparserfromhell repo
Hi,

I am working with the `wikipedia` dataset and I have a script that goes over 92 of the available languages in that dataset. So far I have detected that `ar`, `af`, `an` are not loading. Other languages like `fr` and `en` are working fine. Here's how I am loading them:

```
import nlp

langs = ['ar'. 'af', 'an']

for lang in langs:
    data = nlp.load_dataset('wikipedia', f'20200501.{lang}', beam_runner='DirectRunner', split='train') 
    print(lang, len(data))
```

Here's what I see for 'ar' (it gets stuck there):
```
Downloading and preparing dataset wikipedia/20200501.ar (download: Unknown size, generated: Unknown size, post-processed: Unknown sizetotal: Unknown size) to /home/gaguilar/.cache/huggingface/datasets/wikipedia/20200501.ar/1.0.0/7be7f4324255faf70687be8692de57cf79197afdc33ff08d6a04ed602df32d50...
```

Note that those languages are indeed in the list of expected languages. Any suggestions on how to work around this? Thanks!
