Hi all. Before starting to participate in this wiki, I would like to know if there are public dumps or backups. I mean, I like to have copies of the free licensed projects where I collaborate. I don't like when a fantastic projects disappear in a data disaster. MediaWiki contains a script for generating dumps. You can read more about this [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki#XML_dump here]. Regards. [[User:Emijrp|Emijrp]] 02:30, 3 November 2010 (PDT) | Hi all.

Hi all. What do you think about wikis which disappear? I think that every year a lot of wikis are deleted or get offline. I saw a few years ago how most of the wikis available in the ScribbleWiki hosting were lost forever. How can we avoid this? A lot of wikis are free licensed, and nobody cares about getting a copy or backup. That is incredible! [[User:Emijrp|Emijrp]] 09:57, 3 November 2010 (PDT) | |||
