Manual:Filearchive table

Manual:Contents MediaWiki database layout filearchive table

The filearchive table stores information on all the media that has been deleted, similar to the archive table's job for deleted text revisions. These files are located in the storage for deleted files; in the local storage this most likely is the folder images/deleted/. This is the table that makes image undeletion possible. Deleted files are stored in the place defined by $wgDeletedDirectory , which defaults to $wgUploadDirectory /deleted. See also: Manual:Oldimage table
