Hi Ersin,
Thanks for reaching out. Our cloze editing service detects similar text and tries to make a "best guess" based on how far certain areas of text are from each other. With junk data, it definitely won't work as expected.

Even with real data, a best guess can only accommodate some use cases. Consider:
"I have you in my grasp now <Mr. Bond>."
to ->
"I have you in my grasp now <Mr. Bond> 007."

We have to guess whether 007 is part of the original cloze, and sometimes that will be correct, and sometimes not.

However, we will keep your feedback in mind as we improve cloze editing.
Best,
Cerego Support
