I have created a simple sigle purpose script, allowing to publish the courses as wikipages. It's on https://gist.github.com/urbanecm/8a090da58429b121067bf491d1e9a510 , along with some docs. I can generate wikipages containing course data for any wiki wanting me to do it. If you want me to do it, maybe dedicated phab task assigned to me would be warranted, so I will surely notice it.

I proposed a migration plan (both last year, and this year) for importing that data to Programs & Events Dashboard, but the Education team did not have the budget for it. If SQL dumps are archived, maybe we can do that eventually.

@Ragesoss this might help the current situation. See: https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/educationprogram/

I've put an issue on the backlog: https://github.com/WikiEducationFoundation/WikiEduDashboard/issues/2013

@Reedy thank you very much for your help. But how can i find this data distributed on the original courses that was existed before as this list is not specifying which courses the articles belong to and it is not sorted according to the chronological order of the original courses. Kind Regards---Mossab

You should be able to open the files in any reasonable text editor, but they aren't very human readable

@Reedy yes. I need just courses that was done in hashemite university in jordan (institution:الجامعة الهاشمية). I opened the link you provided but after i unrar it, i can't open it. What is the program that i should use?

That's very bad. Courses was 1st , 2nd, and the 3rd. And also i lost many other links that document my activities in Wikipedia education program that i was provided in my reports in my user group (Wikimedians of Levant). Please give me any back-up pages and how can i access them. It is very important and urgent for me.

It's worth pointing out that there has been 9 months notice of this happening, and 3 months after the proposed deadline.

What information do you actually need/want out of it?

All education program information from arwiki is available as sql dumps at https://dumps.wikimedia.org/other/educationprogram/arwiki.educationprogram.20180919.tar.gz

Unfortunately we lost those pages that document our activities without any back-up :( that is really sad news 😭

Ehh. Do we really want all users to screenshot all courses? I strongly suggest just creating list of those pages, creating wikitext by processing data in database and posting it as regular wiki pages. Such wikipages can be protected to enforce keeping them read only, but I don't think it is really necessary. With this, the community will have the data and we can undeploy the extension without keeping any relicts.

@1339861mzb could you send e an email with a description of the type of data you would be interested to look at? This way we can have a better idea of what is needed.

Just checked, this won't actually do anything. There's nothing stored in the MW core tables related to EP. It's in it's own magic abstraction layer

I suggest to move the content of course pages to the "Wikipedia namespace" because that will save them from being accessible just for experienced users with db. And so that we can document our work and every one can see it.

But ordinary users and teachers of courses can't! Right? So that the documentation of students work will be lost and this is a problem

How can users access it then?

The content is important to document that certain education program in certain county works on certain articles and without saving the previous courses we will lose this documentation purpose

If we can't document the content of the extension then i am against its deletion because for me it is still usable and beneficial
