I'll be more specific, Brion:
- enwiki doesn't have a valid pages-meta-history.xml.7z file now.
Current dump (20070402) is still in progress (and BTW 1 item already failed, so I don't expect it to be a valid one). Previous dump (20070401) has 7 items that failed and is no valid either.
In short, now we can't access a valid complete dump for enwiki.
The rest of the languages does currently have a correct complete dump (all revisions with complete text and metadata, pages-meta-history.xml.7z).
I think there should be some previous check of the status of the current dump before deleting previous ones. For example, I need the whole dump to compute the length of every revision for the next new graphics of WikiXRay.
That would be an improvement, yes.
