500TB is still surprisingly reasonable for what is essentially a library of human (surface level) knowledge.
It would be interesting to know how large the file would be including all Text Form references (i’d imagine anything else such as videos would completely blow the proportions)

The sizes I mentioned are from around 2023-2024, from en.wikipedia.org/…/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia

I suggest the happy medium called Kiwix, directly from the programme you can download all of Wikipedia with medium-sized pictures for a hundred gigabytes or so.

KiwiX on mobile gives 111.1GB Wikipedia download, It also has a bunch of diff categories if you don’t want the super large one.
