+Even if you don't have an internet connection, it is still possible to load a dataset. As long as you've downloaded a dataset from the Hub repository before, it should be cached. This means you can reload the dataset from the cache and use it offline.
 
 If you know you won't have internet access, you can run 🤗 Datasets in full offline mode. This saves time because instead of waiting for the Dataset builder download to time out, 🤗 Datasets will look directly in the cache. Set the environment variable `HF_DATASETS_OFFLINE` to `1` to enable full offline mode.

-The legacy GitHub datasets were added originally on our GitHub repository and therefore don't have a namespace: "squad", "glue", etc. unlike the other datasets that are named "username/dataset_name" or "org/dataset_name".
-Those datasets are still maintained on GitHub, and if you'd like to edit them, please open a Pull Request on the huggingface/datasets repository.
