+# KrdWrd
+
+The KrdWrd Project ran from 2008 to 2011. The mission statement was
+> Provide tools and infrastructure for acquisition, visual annotation, merging and storage of web pages as parts of bigger corpora.
+>
+> Develop a classification engine that learns to automatically annotate pages, and provide visual tools for inspection of results.
+
+Basically, it was an infrastructure for research into web page cleaning. A good
+overview can be found in the paper and an extensive description in the master's thesis (both, see [further down](#cite-work)).
+
+# KrdWrd CANOLA Corpus
+
+The CANOLA Corpus is a visually annotated English web corpus for training
+classification engines to remove boiler plate on unseen web pages. It was
+harvested, annotated and evaluated by the tools and infrastructure of the
+KrdWrd Project.
+
+The corpus consists of 216 files (Web pages) - 208 of which constitute the main
+corpus.
+
+See https://github.com/krdwrd/doc_CANOLA/releases/download/v1.1/canola.pdf for more information.
