And We're Back!
Well, back as of Mid-June - we've lost thee months of updates.

We're good to go now... --Robkelk (talk) 18:26, 20 September 2015 (UTC)


 * While we still don't have all the content back, I think we now know almost everything that we're missing. At least we know what to work on while we aren't adding new content to the wiki. --Robkelk (talk) 19:24, 8 November 2015 (UTC)


 * With the loading of the previously-lost pages from June and July 2015, I suspect we now have all the pages we're going to get from any offline source. Everything else that's missing, we'll have to re-create. --Robkelk (talk) 01:14, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

All pages exported - Wiki Backup
The last time (UTC) I exported the entire text to my home computer was: 20160125141347

The last time (UTC) I exported the images to my home computer was: 20160207163600

Wiki import
1.26 upgrade is planned at the ~24th. If you have luck, I can import some pages before the 31th (Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, btw.) - otherwise it will happen in January. Hopefully that's fine for you. Southparkfan (talk) 17:48, 21 December 2015 (UTC)
 * That's fine, thanks. I'll take an export before the 24th, just in case. --Robkelk (talk) 00:33, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Export has been taken. --Robkelk (talk) 16:47, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Another export has been taken - less than ten minutes before the maintenance window. This talk page should be the only page on the wiki that is not backed up to the current revision. --Robkelk (talk) 15:55, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Bug filed: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T123075. I hope it gets solved soon, otherwise you won't get the backup running. Southparkfan (talk) 17:11, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Robkelk, please look at https://poserdazfreebiestest.miraheze.org. Please make me aware of any errors. If you think that nothing went wrong in the import process here, then we can schedule a read-only period for the real Poserdaz and Freebies Wiki so I can import this XML dump.

 * I did some spot-checks, and everything seems good to me. I'll take another export of the text anyway, just in case. As for scheduling a read-only period, our busiest periods for updating are 05:00-09:00 UTC and 23:00-01:00 UTC - the 23:00-01:00 period is primarily my update window, so we can use that if necessary. --Robkelk (talk) 17:03, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * The latter period is (for me) 00:00-02:00, and that's unacceptably late for me. This update needs to happen at a Friday or Saturday between 18:30 and 20:30 UTC +0. The wiki would only need 30 minutes read-only time (5 minutes backup, 20 minutes import, 5 minutes checking). Southparkfan (talk) 17:34, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I was unclear - the times I gave are the times when we make most of updates to the content. Putting the wiki into read-only mode on Friday between 18:30 and 20:30 UTC +0 should not be an issue. (Saturday between 18:30 and 20:30 UTC +0 might or might not be an issue.) --Robkelk (talk) 00:40, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Can you schedule a final date (and notify me about it)? And put it in the sitenotice too, obviously. Southparkfan (talk) 14:27, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I'll schedule Friday, 22 January between 18:30 and 20:30 UTC +0 for the import. --Robkelk (talk) 00:15, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I've just taken an export of the entire wiki as it stands now, just in case. --Robkelk (talk) 14:00, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Not needed Previllages
You have added yourself to the groups "autopatrolled, confirmed and rollbacker", which are not required as you get them within the "administrator" previllages.
 * My rights were like that when the wiki was set up. Oh, and welcome to the wiki - do you have any links to share? --Robkelk (talk) 17:03, 26 December 2015 (UTC)
