Thanks for reply.
I have another technical question. Considering to situation here, i have 50
GB limited space to deal with database in Oracle which means i can't import
meta-history into entirely. Is that any possible way i can do to import
meta-history into database? or is any possible i can narrow meta-history to
file only with username, timestamp, and revision id?
thanks again!

Current
has only the last revision. Ie. the page you see when visiting
the wiki.
Meta history includes all edits to that page, so it's much more large.
Deleted page are not included on any.
If deleted page are not included on, what is difference?
Importing
meta-current will import the current version of all (currently
existing) pages, importing meta-history will import all edits ever to
all currently existing pages.
Does Meta history
include all revisions? so does that mean Meta history has many repeated
edit in different revision?
No, it means it includes lots of edits to the same
page. The edits
themselves are all different, of course.
If i need the record of every valid edit with
time and username, which i can choose? meta-history or meta-current?
meta-history.
You still won't get *everything* because deleted pages are
excluded, but that's because edits to deleted pages aren't publicly
accessible.
