april en history dumps incomplete
by Ariel T. Glenn 19 Apr '11

19 Apr '11

The April run of the english history dumps is incomplete. There is at least one file that will need to be regenerated. When it's ready I'll send an email update. I expect a delay of 4-5 days for that. Ariel

MediaWiki dumps in sqlite format
by Yuvi Panda 14 Apr '11

14 Apr '11

I'm a student looking to work on MediaWiki during this year's Google Summer of Code, and one of the ideas I've been interested in is in various formats for the data dumps (and dump work in general). How useful would dumps from wikipedia be, if they were in sqlite databases? Would it be useful to have all the dumps as sqlite (history, stubs, current, etc)? Or are there certain dumps (current, for example) which would be very useful as databases? The dumps wouldn't be direct dumps from the mysql database (unlike the old SQL Dumps) - they'll be in a format optimized for data processing and imports. I'll also write supporting code such as libraries for reading the databases, etc. What do you folks think? -- Yuvi Panda T http://yuvi.in/

en history dumps hiccup in current (April) run
by Ariel T. Glenn 08 Apr '11

08 Apr '11

Observant dump watchers will notice that history piece 9 of the April en wikipedia dumps suddenly got tiny. That's because I restarted it. The compressor had gone out to lunch. I'll keep an eye out the next few days and see what happens; the rest continue to run uninterrupted. Ariel

Reading that the recommendation ends up at http://www.7-zip.org/sdk.html is this what you mean? It's a maze of source code so I am not immediately sure what to use. :) On Sun, Apr 3, 2011 at 12:15 PM, Andrew Dunbar <hippytrail(a)gmail.com> wrote: > On 3 April 2011 19:47, White Cat <wikipedia.kawaii.neko(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, I am open to suggestions on library recommendations for reading 7z > files > > with c# :) > > There seems to be a bunch of answers to this on Stackoverflow: > > > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3203701/sample-c-net-code-for-zipping-a-… > > Andrew Dunbar (hippietrail) > > > _______________________________________________ > > Xmldatadumps-l mailing list > > Xmldatadumps-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org > > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/xmldatadumps-l > > > > >

Big dumps
by Andreas Meier 01 Apr '11

01 Apr '11

Hello, it seems to me, that you have to start each big dump manually. At the moment there are only two big dumps produced, de and ru. pl is finished, but no new dump is started. Couldn't you start they automatically like the non-big dumps. Best regards, Andreas
