Dear emijrp,

I have worked on comparing special purpose wikis in the past (please have a look on http://www.hucompute.org/data/pdf/mehler_2008_a.pdf) and am interested in a collaboration what regards the structural classification of such wikis based on their author and their text networks. What do you think about a cooperation?

Best wishes,

Alexander

Hi Sj

Scraperwiki is about playing with data (like a cool Excel), but WikiTeam extracts page histories and images. It is unrelated.

We surpassed 3,000 preserved wikis yesterday http://code.google.com/p/wikiteam/wiki/AvailableBackups and is quickly growing. We upload the dumps to Internet Archive, that folks know a bit about long-term preservation.

Wiki preservation is part of my research on wikis, and later I want to compare these wiki communities with Wikipedia. I'm open to suggestions.

Regards,
emijrp

    Just wow...  Thank you WikiTeam and task force!  Is scraperwiki
    involved?  SJ

        Hi;

        I think this is the first time a full XML dump of Citizendium
        is publicly available[1] (CZ offers dumps but only the last
        revision for each article[2], and our previously efforts
        generated corrupted and incomplete dumps). It contains 168,262
        pages and 753,651 revisions (9 GB, 99 MB in 7z). I think it
        may be useful for researchers, including quality analysis.

        It was generated using WikiTeam tools.[3] This is part of our
        task force to make backups of thousands of wikis around the
        Internet.[4]

        Regards,
