Hi Sj
Scraperwiki is about playing with data (like a cool Excel), but WikiTeam extracts page histories and images. It is unrelated.
We surpassed 3,000 preserved wikis yesterday http://code.google.com/p/wikiteam/wiki/AvailableBackups and is quickly growing. We upload the dumps to Internet Archive, that folks know a bit about long-term preservation.
Wiki preservation is part of my research on wikis, and later I want to compare these wiki communities with Wikipedia. I'm open to suggestions.
Regards,
emijrp

_______________________________________________Hi;
I think this is the first time a full XML dump of Citizendium is publicly available[1] (CZ offers dumps but only the last revision for each article[2], and our previously efforts generated corrupted and incomplete dumps). It contains 168,262 pages and 753,651 revisions (9 GB, 99 MB in 7z). I think it may be useful for researchers, including quality analysis.
It was generated using WikiTeam tools.[3] This is part of our task force to make backups of thousands of wikis around the Internet.[4]
