About the only time I find myself using regular Wikipedia these days is if I need to know if someone died since August 2025 when this ZIM dump was created.

    Your comment answered my question. Which was how often hasn’t been updated. August 2025 was fairly recent but I’m betting a number of articles are out of date at this point in time. For general reference an offline copy is good and it helps to keep an archive. But I wouldn’t use it on the regular for standard references.
