Two separate sites indicate potential sources of torrents for *.tar.gz
downloads of the en wikipedia database material :
(so far).
Is it possible for anyone to indicate more comprehensive lists of
torrents/trackers than these? Are there any plans for all the
database download files to be available in this way (I imagine that
there would also be some PDF manual which would go along with these to
indicate offline viewing, and potentially more info than this).

IMHO the benefits of separated files are similar
to the disadvantages. A
side side benefit if it would be that hashes would be splitted, too. If
you were unlucky, knowing that 'something' (perhaps just a bit) on the
150GB you downloaded is wrong, is not that helpful.
So having hashes for file sections on the big ones, even if not
'standard' would be an improvement.
For that, something like Parchive would probably be better…
