Title: Semantic Parsing on Freebase from Question-Answer Pairs
Abstract: https://cs.stanford.edu/~pliang/papers/freebase-emnlp2013.pdf
WebQuestions is a benchmark for question answering. The dataset consists of 6,642 question/answer pairs. The questions are supposed to be answerable by Freebase, a large knowledge graph. The questions are mostly centered around a single named entity. The questions are popular ones asked on the web (at least in 2013).

For adding novel benchmarks/datasets to the library:
- Is the task an existing benchmark in the literature?
- Have you referenced the original paper that introduced the task?
- If yes, does the original paper provide a reference implementation? If so, have you checked against the reference implementation and documented how to run such a test?
If other tasks on this dataset are already supported:
- Is the "Main" variant of this task clearly denoted?
- Have you provided a short sentence in a README on what each new variant adds / evaluates?
- Have you noted which, if any, published evaluation setups are matched by this variant?
