Help:Database download

All Wikia text is available for easy download. Please see the relevant license for the terms under which this content may be used. Typically, Wikia sites are available under a Creative Commons License (see Wikia Licensing) but this can vary for each wiki.

Each wiki's content database is available as an XML dump. This does not include private user data or images.

Downloading a database dump
To access the download, go to the Special:Statistics page for the wiki. For example, for the Muppet wiki, you would go to http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Statistics

There are two download options: To download one of these, click the datetime links next to the option you would like.
 * Current pages – This contains only the current version of pages which can be useful for bot use
 * Current pages and history – This contains the full page history of each page on the wiki so it can be a very large file if downloaded from a wiki with a large number of pages and many edits such as WoWWiki or Wookieepedia.

A button is located underneath the download links called "Request a database dump". Clicking this button files a request to have the public XML dump updated. These requests are processed during off peak hours and are usually cleared out weekly. Once the request is processed, the date of the download links will update. The button can be pressed once per week.
