Description

{F857825}|Wiki URL|https://americangirldolls.miraheze.org|
Title says all. I am able to upload and import smaller dumps, but not the one in the attachment or anything of a significant size, let alone a dump from a Wikia database backup.

@Blakegriplingph that’s because you can only import dumps of a certain size on-wiki. Anything that is large needs to be imported by an operations system administrator.

If that's the case, could anyone import the files in question?

Imports do NOT need to be done by ops. Really, it’s an mw-admins task

If that’s the case, go ahead and do it yourself as an mw sysadmin rather than stalling on it.

Could you guys do those as well, particularly the ones in Special:Categories?

Sorry for the confusion, I wil proceed with the import

I am not sure how we would import " Special:Categories"? Shoulden't that already be included in the dump?

What I meant was the pages under the categories listed in that special page. Apologies if I wasn't being clear previously.
