Forum:Database dumps broken

I suspect that all database dumps offered on http://wikistats.wikia.com/dbdumps/dbdumps.html are broken and don't have the text of edits later than around July 25th. I know the current dump for the guildwars wiki is broken, and I've just looked at the current and the full pages dumps for the guestbook wiki (these are a LOT smaller than ours), and it's the same thing.

Having a current pages dump is a useful service for users who can code because you can just parse the XML file when you're looking for something a bit special on your wiki. For example, it helps me find out which of the 5000 beasts we document don't have screenshots yet (less than 2%). There is half a dozen helpful scripts that I like to routinely run on the dump, and I have ideas for more. But I can't keep current lists if I can't see what has been added during the last month, and if articles that have been edited in that time just disappear from the current pages dump. --◄mendel► 23:59, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * can you define "broken" ?--Uberfuzzy 09:18, 26 August 2008 (UTC)


 * broken, as in incomplete? I know the image dumps were last done more than a year ago. I know this because someone was asking for the set of images we created for the Traveller wiki. Now we have to get them the hard way (one page at a time). Tjoneslo 18:24, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
