ArXi:2604.25654v1 Announce Type: new Although the cultural (mis)alignment of Large Language Models (LLMs) has attracted increasing attention -- often framed in terms of cultural bias -- until recently there has been limited work on the design and development of datasets for cultural assessment.

To address these issues, we propose design guidelines for annotators and report on the construction of a dataset built according to these principles.
