This script is actually quite out of date, as it does not exclude the analytics tables, but rather the deprecated data mart tables.
pg_dump -T aggregated* -T analytics* -T completeness* -T _* -O $dbname | gzip > $backupfilename is usually what I use, which will also exclude the resource tables, which may or may not be desired. Also, not explicitly including the owner can also be useful with the "-O" parameter which is useful if you are restoring the database to a system with perhaps different ownership from the original database.
