Has anyone attempted to restore a running copy of wikipedia from the dumps? If so do the dumps provide enough data that, in the event of a catastrophic data failure, wikipedia could be brought back up using just the backups?--[[User:Adewale|Adewale]] 08:42, 27 February 2009 (UTC) | Has anyone attempted to restore a running copy of wikipedia from the dumps?

* That's a very good question. The problem is that the dumps are now insanely huge. I don't know how many people would even have the capacity to unpack them. --[[User:Jscott|Jscott]] 15:45, 27 February 2009 (UTC) | |||
