Is https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Category:Website_not_archived that a good guide to go by, to find a wiki that hasn't been archived? |
19:46
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
Dud1: yes it should. :) We're working closely with them. However, ignore it for Wikia wikis. |

Dud1: We also know several wikis missing metadata on archive.org: https://wikiapiary.com/wiki/User:Thingles/WikiTeam_missing_url |

(If you want you can help me fix those.) |

Since there are eyes in here right now... what can a wiki owner do to make things easier for wikiteam? |
19:51
🔗
|
SadDM |
I'm the back-end admin on a modest sized wiki (c. 10k pages) |
19:51
🔗
|
SadDM |
is there a way I can do a dump and gather the images that would be helpful? |
20:28
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
SadDM: Thanks for asking! Yes, there is. https://code.google.com/p/wikiteam/wiki/NewTutorial#I_have_shell_access_to_server + https://code.google.com/p/wikiteam/wiki/NewTutorial#Publishing_the_dump |

If you have shell access, it's really simple and fast for you to make a dump. If you don't want, at least add your wiki to public listings: http://wikiapiary.com/ |

SadDM |
Nemo_bis: awesome... dumping now. |
21:08
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
SadDM: great! :) |
21:13
🔗
|
SadDM |
so, how should the dump and image.tar be named? |
21:13
🔗
|
SadDM |
should they be compressed? |
21:16
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
SadDM: yes, we usually use 7z with the filenames as per tutorial |
21:16
🔗
|
SadDM |
ok... that was a double-check |
21:17
🔗
|
SadDM |
but I'm still not totally clear on what the file names should look like... |
21:17
🔗
|
SadDM |
pathfinderwikicom-20140202-wikidump.xml.7z? |
21:18
🔗
|
SadDM |
pathfinderwikicom-20140202-images.tar.7z? |
21:28

This is what's usually inside a 7z wikidump: |
21:28
🔗
|
Danneh__ |
$ ls irc_wikiorg-20140129-wikidump |
21:28
🔗
|
Danneh__ |
config.txt images index.html irc_wikiorg-20140129-history.xml irc_wikiorg-20140129-images.txt irc_wikiorg-20140129-titles.txt Special:Version.html |
21:28
🔗
|
Danneh__ |
images being a folder containing all the images/image descriptions |
21:29
🔗
|
Danneh__ |
but I believe the other ways should be in that NewTutorial page, posted earlier |

SadDM: pathfinderwikicom-20140202-history.xml.7z (XML only) and pathfinderwikicom-20140202-wikidump.7z (with both XML and images) |

|
Nemo_bis |
it doesn't really matter, just makes it easier for you to upload them (with the uploader.py script) |
21:53
🔗
|
SadDM |
hmm, I think I'm starting to understand |
21:53
🔗
|
SadDM |
the truth is that I'll probably just upload via ftp... that'll be fastest for me |
21:54
🔗
|
SadDM |
(since this will be a one-time ting for me) |
21:54
🔗
|
SadDM |
so... is this layout/naming about right? http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=FFqyVFLH |
23:08
🔗
|
SadDM |
one last ping on ^this^ before I go ahead |
23:09
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
that's good enough, yes |
23:10
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
I still suggest to use uploader.py to add all the metadata, it's tedious by hand |
