Ok so how about we recocnize what the overal goal is first . Then establish the point that its trying to convay. Only then can we meet in the middle and set a plan in motion. I can only assist when a plan of action is clear with a definite plan without it im lost on where to begin. It seems as if im doing my natural instinct research then I get mail from the people im reading about... Very interesting this is because im left to think my mind is linked to the problems at hand. TS is my old signature, my server os will pull up my IP searches. Which leads me to believe this is why I am always being brought up in the middle of these outstanding conversations you guys are having lol. Please send detailed instructions as to how I can help,there should be a file known as Mila.eu also known as ro.eula. Find it and run whatever it has, thanks. -patiently waiting your responce. -MilaStarX-TS On Apr 19, 2013 3:29 AM, "Platonides" platonides@gmail.com wrote:

as you may know there is a rev_text_id-field in the revision-table. This

Because the
WMF doesn’t store the text here, but only a pointer
("DB://cluster25/11458305"
for example). If you query different wikis you will see that most of
them point
to the same cluster or one with a number short by. That says me (and I
was
also told so before) that all text of all wmf-projects are stored
together.
The task would now to separate wikidata from the rest – but the
storage-area
has no clue from where a text is which makes the separating very hard.
And
there is another problem: Deleted texts are also in this area, so even
more
filtering would be needed. I very doubt that this situation will change at the TS and I also doubt
that
it will be different for WikiLabs. So I guess your best bet is the API
here.
Sincerely, DaB.
I think the only hope would be if wikidata was stored under its own cluster (for easier differenciation) and at least one server of that group (the master?) only had that (so toolserver could get its binlogs).
