> Can we get away with a 'dumpwikibaserdf.sh' and some well-chosen variables
for both wikidata and commons (or at worst two much much shorter scripts)
instead of a whole new dumpcommonsrdf.sh?
I thought about it, and it might be possible, but it would make the script
even more complex and even less readable, as it would be pretty much everything
variables on top of variables on top of variables. That's why I didn't go that
route - too easy to make an error while piling those variables on top of each
other, and would be too hard to find one... I understand copypasting is usually
bad, but I wonder if we want to tolerate it for the sake of readability. If you
think it's a must I can redo it using common script but that would probably
make the common part harder to understand and verify.
> Mediainfo is the first name I would have chosen too but maybe we can find
something else that will keep future dump maintainers from swearing at us.
That's a good time for proposals, while we have not committed to anything
yet. That said, given that it'd be in other/wikibase/commonswiki, I don't think
it can be confused with anything else.
> Last comment is that I really dislike the links under
xmldatadumps/public/{wikidata,commonswiki}. That directory should be only for
xml/sql dumps and we should be moving away from having links to other stuff
there, not adding new ones. We need a plan...
I just did what wikidata dump is already doing. I do not have any opinion on
which way is better, but I think it should be symmetric for both RDF dumps -
either both have it, or none has it. So you are welcome to propose any model
that you prefer, I do not have preferences here except for consistency.
