This first release of the corpus comprises 35,194 full-text reviews extracted from eight different major Norwegian news sources: Dagbladet, VG, Aftenposten, Bergens Tidende, Fædrelandsvennen, Stavanger Aftenblad, DinSide.no and P3.no.
The reviews cover a range of different domains, including literature, movies, video games, restaurants, music and theater, in addition to product reviews across a range of categories. Each review is labeled with a manually assigned score of 1–6, as provided by the rating of the original author. For more information and access to the data, please see the following git repository:
