Thanks Diederik and Waksman, It seems that I need to do parse the dump for article data to get this piece of information... Yes, this will be the last choice, but I think there maybe some easier way...
I just got home and checked the dump I've downloaded. It's downloaded on June, 10, 2010, the size is 6117881141 in bz2. I remember when I download, it's the latest version at that moment. As the dumps are generated every N months, and the one I have is bigger that the version 2010-01-30 as Waksman said, my version should be between Feb to June. Does anybody remember the version between this period, or happened to download the same version with me? Thanks very much to tell me any related information again! Best regards!
