Wikimedia dumps for Wikisource
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: dovijacobs

Description:
Wikisource is still listed under "special" rather than alongside Wikibooks,
Wikinews, etc. here:

http://download.wikimedia.org/

This should be changed so that dumps of subdomains will be listed.

bzimport set Reference to bz3541.
bzimport added a subscriber: Unknown Object (MLST).

A wikisource set is now in the backup scripts, and they should appear in
the next full dump.

Note that wikisource.org will still appear under 'special'.

Last dump seems to have been just recently, November 5th, but no still no
Wikisource wikis. (Should the status of this bug already be "Resolved"?

Thanks for the correct link, Brion!

But shouldn't the link also appear here:

http://download.wikimedia.org/#special

That is why I didn't know how to find it.

Reopening bug, as per above comments. However, obviously the ONLY thing that
needs to been done is to include a link on the download page, so that people
will know that Wikisource downloads already exist and where they are to be found.

New system has all the links in there. They're just ugly. :D

(Wikisource dump will be in a couple days.)
