The odds that Wikipedia, the crown jewel of the "many eyes make for
shallow bugs/typos" movement, would be deleted to the point where it's
irreplaceable by anybody, are so slim as to not even be worth worrying
about.
But if you're terribly paranoid you can download the database dump that's
dated 20050922 at http://download.wikipedia.org/wikipedia/en/ -- don't
grab it just yet, though, because that one's still copying over or being
generated.
