Dear ones,
Where might I get or mirror a dump of Commons media files?
> It seems worth mentioning on the front page of
https://dumps.wikimedia.org/
> It looks like the compressed XML of the ~50M description pages is ~25GB.
> It looks like wiki-team set up a dump script that posted monthly dumps to
the internet archive; in 2013 it stopped include the month+year in the
title; in 2016 it stopped altogether.

Greetings,
The Structured Data team is testing adding, editing, and removing other
statements (besides depicts) to file pages and in the UploadWizard. If all
goes well, the team will turn it on for Commons later next week. You can
read more about testing on the SDC talk page [0], or head over to
https://test-commons.wikimedia.org and pick a random file to get started.
Feedback is welcome at the same SDC talk page link below.

Hello all,
The Structured Data development team will hold an IRC office hour from
17:00-18:00 UTC on Thursday, 18 July, in #wikimedia-office on the freenode
IRC network. Meta has information on joining the meeting, as well as date
and time conversion [1]. Please join us to discuss forming statements for
structured data, properties that may need to be proposed on Wikidata,
future plans for SDC, or anything else you might want to discuss. I look
forward to seeing you there, I'll post a reminder before the meeting starts.
