Why the `conll2003` dataset on huggingface only contains the `en` subset? Where is the  German data?
Thanks for reporting @beyondguo.

Indeed, we generate this dataset from this raw data file URL: https://data.deepai.org/conll2003.zip
And that URL only contains the English version. The German data requires payment

The [original task page](https://www.clips.uantwerpen.be/conll2003/ner/) states "The German data is a collection of articles from the Frankfurter Rundschau. The named entities have been annotated by people of the University of Antwerp. Only the annotations are available here. In order to build these data sets you need access to the ECI Multilingual Text Corpus. It can be ordered from the Linguistic Data Consortium (2003 non-member price: US$ 35.00)."

Inflation since 2003 has also affected LDC's prices, and today the dataset [LDC94T5](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC94T5) is available under license for $75 a copy. The [license](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/license/eci-slash-mci-user-agreement.pdf) includes a non-distribution condition, which is probably why the data has not turned up openly.

The ACL hold copyright of this data; I'll mail them and anyone I can find at ECI to see if they'll open this up now. After all, it worked with Microsoft 3DMM, why not here too, after 28 years? :)
 Closing this issue as we are not allowed to share publicly the German subset.

But on huggingface datasets:
