For anyone interested, I've uploaded en.wikiquote.org, en.wiktionary.org, en.wikivoyage.org and species.wikimedia.org to my google drive. I list links below, but you can also refer to http://xowa.sourceforge.net/image_dbs.html
I've also added a torrent for downloading the en.wikipedia.org wiki directly (as opposed to building it). The link is http://xowa.sourceforge.net/torrent/wiki/en.wikipedia.org/Xowa_enwiki_2013-11-04_wiki_complete.torrent Hope this is useful.... 265 MB en.wikiquote.org https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9cb52zjL2rIYUEyZ3NpMGlMQ00/edit?usp=sharing 382 MB en.wiktionary.org https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9cb52zjL2rIWVlQRzBaSWV3Vnc/edit?usp=sharing 804 MB species.wikimedia.org https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9cb52zjL2rIcGtQbHoweU4teHM/edit?usp=sharing 1316 MB en.wikivoyage.org https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9cb52zjL2rIcnFqb2k3U3lEbzA/edit?usp=sharing On Mon, Nov 25, 2013 at 9:10 AM, gnosygnu <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the feedback! > >> but could you make a list of torrent somewhere on Meta? > > Good idea.
