Backups/pt-br

Miraheze has an internal and external backup procedure. Following the schedule below, certain critical parts of our infrastructure are automatically backed up to an external server (external meaning under our control but provided by a different server host and in a different country than all our current servers). These 'internal' backups include full database dumps, which include user account information and CheckUser information. These backups are only accessible by our Operations team, and can be used in the event of a catastrophic site failure to quickly bring the entire site up to a recent state.

Backups of a wiki
In addition to these private backups, Miraheze System administrators, on request, will create XML dumps of wikis and host them on our static server (see below) if public, or email them to the requester if private. These backups can then be stored securely wherever you'd like. These backups do not include user account information or CheckUser information but contain wiki page text and logs that you can import to any MediaWiki site.

To request a XML dump of your wikis content, please fill in this form or contact our system administrators by your preferred method.

Local scheduled backups
Users can request to have an automatic backup done for their wiki for a specific time period (e.g. every two weeks, every month, etc.). These are automatically uploaded to static.
