Help:Database download

A good reason to use Wikicities is that a MySQL database of every Wikicity is available for download under the terms of the GFDL.

The database is available as an XML dump (this does not include private user data) which can be easily imported into any mediawiki installation, and which is easily broken down for general processing.

To access the download, go to:

http:// name of your wiki.wikicities.com/dbdumps/pages_current.xml.bz2 for the current version of every page (the most recent revision for every page),

or to: http:// name of your wiki.wikicities.com/dbdumps/pages_full.xml.bz2 for the complete history of every page.

A list of all downloads can be found at dbdumps.html. This list includes details of when the last database dump was made.

Backups
Backups of all Wikicities databases are saved to a file on the same hardware and copied (automatically) to a second server. Therefore, the backups exist on two different machines. Both machines are in the same colocation facility, so it's not quite "off-site".
