I got stucked with an open source project which calls forenwiki-latest-pages-articles.xml.bz2 while I only have enwiki-latest-pages-articles-multistream.xml.bz2, the network status is too bad for me to download another large file, so I wondered what is the difference between this two file, I have read the descriptions from https://dumps.wikimedia.org/ https://dumps.wikimedia.org/, , however, I am confused about the concept '/in multiple bz2 streams, 100 pages per stream', /could anyone explain it for me? thanks!
I can't check right now, but from the description you quoted it looks like a matter of compression in parallel threads, which should not affect the result when you uncompress the file. If your software fails, try and decompress, then recompress with standard bzip2.
