== Suggestion ==
I am glad this iteration of Dramatica has learnt from the past and publishes regular full backups. More websites should do this.
But I have a suggestion: Text and media should be in separate files because text is far smaller than media, so the text backups can be done more frequently.
Also, text-only backups should be compressed using 7z or <code>xz -9</code>. They are very effective on text. It should result in less than a twentieth of the file size.

Database backups

We should regularly create independent public backups of the article database to prevent such losses from occurring again. (see: https://karl-voit.at/2020/10/23/avoid-web-forums/ ) CurtainMan (talk) 22:48, 17 December 2023 (EST)
