Ciao,

(un po' OT)

se lavorate per un Università, ente, azienda o altro e potete fare
servizio di mirroring come si dice sotto, c'è un file da 34 TB che
contiene quasi tutte le immagini
caricate su Wikimedia Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org) fino al 2013.

Pensate alla possibilità di mirrorare questo archivio.

Alternativamente, come singoli, potete aiutare scaricando i torrent di
alcune parti di queste immagini e condividendo.

Ciao,

C

WikiTeam[1] has released an update of the chronological archive of all
Wikimedia Commons files, up to 2013. Now at ~34 TB total.
<https://archive.org/details/wikimediacommons>
        I wrote to – I think – all the mirrors in the world, but apparently
nobody is interested in such a mass of media apart from the Internet
Archive (and the mirrorservice.org which took Kiwix).
        The solution is simple: take a small bite and preserve a copy yourself.
One slice only takes one click, from your browser to your torrent
client, and typically 20-40 GB on your disk (biggest slice 1400 GB,
smallest 216 MB).
