🧠 Quick Tip Drop for all Buzuzu-Mavi participants!

Data preprocessing is EVERYTHING when working with African languages. Here's what to focus on this week:

✅ Fix messy text (inconsistencies, typos, missing values) ✅ Preserve African language features (tone marks, diacritics) ✅ Use the right tokenisation & language ID tools (try AfroLID, SpaCy, Stanza) ✅ Save your data in clean formats (JSON, CSV, etc.)

Clean, structured data will help InkubaLM learn more effectively. 💪

⏳ The deadline's coming fast - don’t wait!
