Dear list,
do you provide more information about the pages-logging dump somewhere?
While parsing it we came across some questions that we are trying to
clarify:
* Why are there only ~40 million logs (at over 450 million revisions)?
Which logs does the pages-logging dump / the "public" logging table
(not) contain? (We double-checked the number of logs on the database,
using our Toolserver-Account (Logging table).)
The logs live at Special:Log Most edits don't produce revisions,
although some actions produce both and a log (upload, protect, move...)
and others only leave a log entry (such as a block or patrol)
* Can you give us more information about the
TextElement that is defined
for<logitem> in the XML Schema?
Definition:<element name="text" type="mw:TextType"/>
In pages-logging it sometimes occurs as:
<text deleted="deleted" />
How is this being used?
It's used to hide log entries when they contain personal info.
Replaces <logtitle> and <params>.
It's not used for anything in non-revdeleted entries.
