Hi all,
I’m doing research to the existence of gender bias in Wikipedia texts over time. To do this, I need old pages-articles.xml dumps. I am still looking for dumps from 2009 and 2011-2013, does anyone know how I can get one of these or does someone have one of these stored themselves?
Thanks in advance, Katja Schmahl
You might check our archives as well as archive.org: see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data_dumps/Finding_older_xml_dumps if you have not already done so.
Otherwise perhaps someone on the list will have a copy available.

Hi Katja,
Are you doing research on multiple languages? Or English only? Do you plan to use Wikipedia only?
If yes, there are not a very high number of dumps available from this period (more before and more after) because of performance issues on the dump generation process. (I don't remember exactly, but we didn't have full enwiki dumps for maybe years long around this period.)
If you cannot download from other sources, I have the enwiki-20091128-pages-articles.xml and the enwiki-20110115-pages-articles.xml files on my PC.
Best, Samat
