Help:Database download

All Wikia text is available for easy download. Please see the relevant licence 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.

Backups of all of Wikia databases are made continuously on multiple servers in multiple locations. If you want an extra backup of your content, you are welcome to download the database.

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

The public database downloads are typically generated once a week. If there is a delay or you need an up to date database copy urgently, you can click the button on the Statistics page to request a faster update.

The last update times mentioned on the page will attempt to honor your user preferences to timezone and datetime formatting. If you are not logged in, the timezone displayed will be UTC.
