Hi!
I am currently working on a dump search and download tool for all Wikimedia
wikis. In order to find out which Wikimedia wikis exist I used Wikidata.
While comparing the list of wikis from Wikidata with the list of dumped
projects I found out that the following wikis are currently not being
dumped:
- alswikibooks (last dump 20180101)
- alswikiquote (last dump 20180101)
- alswiktionary (last dump 20180101)
- ecwikimedia (never dumped, private but not marked private in Wikidata?)
- fixcopyrightwiki (last dump 20200220)
- labswiki (never dumped?)
- labtestwiki (never dumped?)
- mowiki (last dump 20180101)
- mowiktionary (last dump 20180101)
- ru_sibwiki (last dump 20071011)
- ukwikiversity (never dumped?)
Is there an uptodate machine-readable list of currently dumped wikis
besides https://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html?
(Off-topic) Spoiler for dump searching tool on my laptop:
$ target/release/wdgrep "asdfdefased"
/c/Users/xyz/wpdumps/dewiki-20200701-pages-articles-multistream.xml -v --ns
0
Searched 21437.064 MiB in 8.467969 seconds (2531.5474 MiB/s).
Best regards,
Count Count
Hi,
If you don't mind, please, starting next time, insert commas into those
huge counts. Without commas they are VERY difficult to read.
Thanks!
Sincerely,

I've tried using freenas/truenas with a data deduplication volume to store multiple sequential dumps, however it doesn't seem to save much space at all - I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction so that I can download multiple dumps and not have it take up so much room (uncompressed).
Has anyone tried anything similar and had success with data deduplication?
Is there a guide?
Hi all,
I am trying to read the dump from
https://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/enwiki/20200701/enwiki-20200701-pages-arti…
using a Java XMLStreamReader but it complains about the format. It looks
like the file does not contain an XML header (<?xml version="1.0"?> or
such) and after unpacking and prepending the header all seems fine.
Is there a good reason why headers are missing?
Cheers,
Alex
Dear Rajakumaran Archulan,
Older dumps can often be found on the Internet Archive. The February 2017
full dumps for the English language Wikipedia are here:
https://archive.org/details/enwiki-20170201
A reminder for all new and older members of this list: comprehensive
documentation for dumps users is available on MetaWiki:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data_dumps In the section "Getting the
dumps" there are pointers for locating older dumps that are no longer
available on the Wikimedia dumps download host.

NOTE: I did not produce the HTML dumps, they are being managed by another
team.
If you are interested in weighing in on the output format, what's missing,
etc, here is the phabricator task: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T257480
Your comments and suggestions would be welcome!
