Duplicate pages
by Sebastiano Vigna 12 Apr '16

The current dump enwiki-20160204-pages-articles.xml.bz2 contains duplicate pages. In particular, "Total Nonstop Action" and "Ida de Grey" appear twice. Is this going to be fixed or should we assume that there might be duplicated pages in the dump? This never happened to us before. Ciao, seba

Hello all I was wondering if someone could point me the english wikipedia "enwiki-20150205-pages-articles-multistream" dump from which the 2015-04 dbpedia dumps were extracted. They used to be hosted on dump.wikipedia.org but are 404 now. Thanks Praveen

old dumps
by David Przybilla 14 Feb '16

14 Feb '16

2015, 2016 dumps are available at the wikimedia dumps website. However I would like to have access to old xml wikipedia dumps. I've been googling all around and tried everything from Torrents to an EBS snapshot on amazon which supposedly contained many of the xml dumps. Ive managed to somehow get access to random dumps for all years from 2006 to 2016, However I would like to get specific dumps. i.e: all dumpsaround March for the mentioned years. I wonder if there is a repository, or if anyone could share a them via torrents( the current torrens don't have any seeds) Thanks

Dumps interrupted briefly on one snapshot host
by Ariel Glenn WMF 09 Feb '16

Earlier today one of the snapshot hosts was mistakenly taken off line and shortly thereafter rebooted. The cron job checker should pick up tomorrow and after a few minutes continue where the run left off. I'll be checking to make sure that all goes as planned. Ariel

compression tests
by Bryan White 07 Feb '16

07 Feb '16

Changing compression programs was mentioned on the list last month. Doing Google searches for one thing can bring up something totally different... https://github.com/powturbo/TurboBench This compares over 50 different compression programs with "pretty" graphs and tables as output. I think the test results on the web page uses part of an enwiki dump file. See http://mattmahoney.net/dc/text.html for information on the file. Note: The developer might be same person who did LZTurbo. A closed source fork of GPL Tornado compression program. If wondering, Tornado leaves BZ2 in the dust in terms of speed with same compression size, It is available for Linux and Windows, but is not in any Linux repository I could find. There is also Squash Compression Benchmark https://quixdb.github.io/squash-benchmark/ Bryan

Could somebody start the dumps
by Bryan White 02 Feb '16

Could somebody start the dumps. It would be nice to get two rounds of dumps in a month for a change. Also, shouldn't enwiki (dewiki? frwiki?) go first as they take the longest? I think the second round won't start till these are finished. Bryan
