About
The two main pieces of MediaWiki which need to be preserved in order to reconstruct a site in the event of drive failure are:
- custom files:
- the images folder (which I usually rename to "wikiup", to distinguish it from "images" folders created by other apps)
- any customized artwork created for the site (probably preserved elsewhere, but it's a good idea to keep everything together)
- the database
- exact process depends on what engine you are using
- for MySQL: MySQL/porting/data
