^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I think some people missed this line.
A mistake I made caused the loss of 496 full-resolution images from Wikimedia servers.

If anyone has any ideas about where to find more backup files, I'd be willing to hear them. Otherwise, the community will just have to reupload as many as possible.

I have 30 of the 496 images in that list based on an exact path match. It's possible that I have more based on hash matches for image which were moved between sites or 'renamed' after my last sync.
I have some chores to run, but I will later pull the hashes from the database and check for hash matches.
I would likely have had nearly all of them if the rsync push to me had not been down most of the year.
If it helps, this file has the hashes already:
