help to ensure that everyone can access the files with reasonable download times. Clients that try to evade these limits
may be blocked.
Data downloads
The Wikimedia Foundation is requesting help to ensure that as many copies as possible are available of all Wikimedia database dumps. Please volunteer to host a mirror if you have access to sufficient storage and bandwidth.
Database backup dumps
A complete copy of all Wikimedia wikis, in the form of wikitext source and metadata embedded in XML. A number of raw database tables in SQL form are also available.
