I’m working on gaining access to the dumps uploading project on Cloud Services so that I can restore operation.

I dug around and it seems that those dumps were not uploaded by WMF staff, but by a volunteer with the handle 'hydriz'.

Here is their phabricator profile: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/p/Hydriz/

Unfortunately, it seems like they have not been active recently.

If you are interested, feel free to contact them, perhaps they just need a bit of help to get those contributions back on track.

No, I am referring to these, which are all uploaded by WMF staff and abruptly stop in November 2022.

The incremental dumps that we keep at https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/incr/ continue to be there, but they continue to be experimental (so do please the disclaimer over there), and we continue to only keep the last ~40 days or so.

Regarding archive.org, we have no control over what they do or do not archive.

If you share a bit about your use case, we can help point you in the right direction. Let us know.

Best,

What happened to the incremental dumps on archive.org? Why do they stop in late 2023? Are they saved elsewhere, or are they lost forever?
