I looked at <http://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html> for "labs" or "wikitech", but didn't find anything. The wiki at wikitech.wikimedia.org should have occasional dumps/backups. I believe as wikitech is outside of the cluster, this wouldn't fall under dumps.wikimedia.org, per se, but it should be simple enough to use the same scripts and host the dumps somewhere. Maybe do a dump every six months or something?
There's daily dumps: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/dumps/ The directory doesn't currently allow listing, but the file format is: labswiki-<year><month><day>.xml.gz labswiki-<year><month><day>-images.tar.gz Where year is xxxx, month is xx, and day is xx. I may be able to just transfer them to dumps occasionally via cron.
(In reply to comment #1) > There's daily dumps: > > https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/dumps/ Oh, awesome! :-) > I may be able to just transfer them to dumps occasionally via cron. Or even just a simple explanation (basically duplicating comment 1 of this bug) somewhere on dumps.wikimedia.org would be sufficient.
