How can I help?
Running a Warrior
You can start up a Warrior and there select Arto. (If you don't really care what you are archiving, select ArchiveTeam's Choice instead, as at some points ArchiveTeam may priorize another project.)
Running the script manually
If you use Linux and you're a bit familiar with it, you can try running the script directly.
The instructions can be found at github.com/ArchiveTeam/arto-grab.

The number after If you want to stop the script, please do it gracefully if possible. To do so, create an empty file named STOP in the folder of the script (terminal command: If you see "Project code is out of date", kill the script, go to its folder ( |
Donating to the Internet Archive
Content downloaded by the ArchiveTeam will be uploaded to the Internet Archive, where it will be stored and be available – hopefully – forever. However, storing it costs thousands of dollars in the long run. So, if you can afford, please consider donating to the Internet Archive, so that this piece of history can be kept for us all. http://archive.org/donate
Do you like our cause?
If you want to help in other projects, want to learn more about ArchiveTeam, or even help in development in general, navigate to the Main Page of this wiki, from there you can reach a lot of information. The Team consists of volunteers working on the projects in their free time, so helping hands (and resources) are always welcome.
Jchillerup's earlier efforts
- DONE: Enumerating all the users is done through polling for every profile. There are two scripts running currently. One is working upwards from a known ID while the other is working its way downwards.
- DONE: Write a script to downloading profiles and avatars, guestbooks, photos and videos. Downloaded 50,000 users in ~3.5 hours with 10 workers.
The download is chugging along fine on my (Jchillerup (talk)) server. Projected total size around 1TB.
