Task force corrupt dumps (empty .desc and image files) #55

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Found some errors in task force dumps:

* http://archive.org/details/wiki-spottingworldcom_wiki (corrupt images, empty 
desc http://www.spottingworld.com/File:Wikiquote-logo.svg)
* http://archive.org/details/wiki-stargate_sg1_solutionscom_w (images looks 
good but desc are empty 
http://www.stargate-sg1-solutions.com/wiki/File:Banner-3teams.jpg)

Perhaps the issue is a bad split. Some MediaWikis include the bytes field.

<text xml:space="preserve" bytes="36">Banner featuring SG1, SGA, SGU 
teams</text>

Empty descripts are not very important because the XML dump includes all pages 
in the wiki (also Image:... and File:...), but it is better if .desc files are 
not generated as 0 bytes.

Empty .desc fixed in #795 and 796

But images are downloaded as corrupt in some wikis.

Probably is better to use .xml instead of .desc for description file extension.

All those wikis' images are actually HTML files with error 405. Trying to 
compile a list now.

I did this silly command:

   $ find . -mindepth 3 -maxdepth 3 -type f -exec awk '/<html>/ && NR < 2 {print FILENAME; nextfile}' {} \;

and I attach the output.

So, if this is caused by error 405 it would be issue 68.

emijrp, can you please check if this happens in the latest dumps too?
