-# Lingala Alpaca Dataset - Augmented Version
-
-This dataset contains human-generated instruction-following data in Lingala, inspired by the Alpaca dataset format. It has been augmented to increase its size and diversity while maintaining a balanced representation of different stylistic categories and instruction types, including urban, formal, pedagogical, summary, and translation tasks.
+This dataset contains human-generated instruction-following data in Lingala, inspired by the Alpaca dataset format, covering five task categories (formal, pedagogical, summary, urban, translation) across five public-interest domains, with a balanced representation of stylistic categories and instruction types.
 
 ## General Statistics
-
 * **Total volume:** 6,664 lines in total.
 * **Number of unique source texts:** 1,772.
 * **Structure:** The dataset is divided into 5 instruction types, with a total of 6,100 context occurrences. This differs from the final number of lines because some contexts are intentionally reused across different tasks.
 
 ## Distribution by Instruction Type
-
 The dataset is organized into five instruction categories:
-
 * **Formal (`tasks_frm.json`):** 1,425 occurrences, covering administrative and standard responses.
 * **Pedagogical (`tasks_pdg.json`):** 1,425 occurrences, covering explanation and teaching tasks.
 * **Summary (`tasks_rsm.json`):** 1,425 occurrences, covering concise summarization tasks.

-## Format and Purpose
+## Dataset Creation
 
-The dataset is published in an instruction-following format compatible with the Hugging Face `datasets` library.
+**Source Data**: instructions and responses written by the CDS team and institutional collaborators (UNDP, partner universities), based on 1,772 unique source texts after cross-batch deduplication.
 
-The data is intended for training and fine-tuning AI language models to generate responses in Lingala adapted to different linguistic registers and task types.
 
+## Format and Purpose
+The dataset is published in an instruction-following format compatible with the Hugging Face `datasets` library.
+The data is intended for training and fine-tuning AI language models to generate responses in Lingala adapted to different linguistic registers and task types.
 The dataset covers:
-
 * Formal communication
 * Pedagogical explanations
 * Everyday and urban conversation
 * Text summarization
 * Translation
-
 It also provides coverage across several public-interest domains, including agriculture, governance and administration, health, education, and the informal/urban sector.
 
-## Usage
+## Considerations for Using the Data
+This dataset intentionally covers 5 broad domains (agriculture, governance, health, informal sector, education) but remains modest in size (6,664 examples) for a low-resource language — users should expect limited lexical and stylistic coverage outside these domains.
 
+## Usage
 To load this dataset:
-
 ```python
 from datasets import load_dataset
-
 dataset = load_dataset("Congo-digital-service/Dataset-Lingala-Alpaca-LLM")
 print(dataset)
 ```
