Andrew and I are both sysops at English Wikibooks, hence our interest. Others are listed at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Special:Listadmins – not sure if any others take an interest in this, or are subscribed to the mailing list.

Dear Platonides,

many many thanks for pointing the dump to us!
This is extremely welcome.  It does not seem so large, so we will start experimenting with it immediately.  I will report back once we get it running, also with some stats on the time the analysis took.
How did you find it?  From download.mediawiki.org, I saw only the interrupted dump in progress; how does one get hold of older dumps?

Yes, I know the distinction between computer-admins and wiki-admins (sysops, bureaucrats, etc).
Who are the latter for wikibooks?

Best,

Luca

Each wiki is one single database.

There's a full enwikibooks dump from 20080712

Don't confuse the wiki's admins (sysops and bureaucrats), which with the
system admins, which are the same for all WMF wikis (Brion, Domas, Tim
Starling...).
