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.

Dear sir/madam,
I am a final year undergrad at the department of computer science & engineering at University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. We are in the process of building an evaluator for word embeddings for our final year project.
We need the *Wikipedia dump of February 2017* for our research purpose. We searched across the web for several hours. But we couldn't find it. It would be grateful if you grant us access to the above corpus to continue our research.
Thank you!
