Hello, quick question about wiki dumps
Hey there. I am an admin on a different wiki. Recently we used the Miraheze Fabricator to import a dump from FANDOM to a Miraheze wiki, and in fact I belive you were the one to import it. Which leads me to this question. The dump that you were given was actually an incomplete one with several pages missing. We recently got a complete dump, so my question is, if we imported our updated dump to the wiki, what would happen? Would it override any existing pages from the first dump? Would it cause any problems? Please feel free to answer at your own pace. ComputerError4041 (talk) 00:37, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think much happens, even replace the page again and change it (if made changes). The new pages will definitely arrive. YellowFrogger (✉ Talk  ✐ Edits ) 01:38, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
 * "even replace the page again and change it (if made changes)"
 * So by this, do you mean any edits we made to the prexisiting pages will be kept? Because we made quite a few edits to the pages that already got imported. If those changes won't be lost, we're all set. ComputerError4041 (talk) 01:58, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
 * The edits no will be kept. I'm the one who says one thing and the translator does another. If you made an edit to an already imported page, and imported everything by replacing that imported and edited page, it will revert to the way you replaced it. I think that basically happens this.

 * It might overwrite the existing pages. You can:
 * Use Special:Export to export all existing pages to another wiki (maybe testwiki)
 * Import the dump
 * Use Special:Import to import the pages you exported to testwiki
 * Maybe that will work? I have no idea Anpang   Talk   Stuff  02:29, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
