My initial cc to commons-l was rejected because I wasn't subscribed to the mailing list, so just forwarding this again.

Closing the loop here:

WCQS service has been restored. Our apologies again for the unexpected service interruption.

This is a great point Maarten - the Wikimedia Commons list would have made a lot more sense. We'll do that instead going forward.

Hi Ryan and Guillaume,

Last time I checked WCQS was short for "Wikimedia Commons Query Service" ( https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:SPARQL_query_service ) so I'm a bit puzzled why you posted this on the Wikidata mailing list instead of the Wikimedia Commons list? I hope it will be back soon.

You're right! Oversight on my part, thanks for propagating the information.

We ran some numbers and it looks that the data reload is going to take around 2.5 days, during which WCQS will be unavailable. Sorry for this interruption of service.

Hi all,

Our host wcqs-beta-01.eqiad.wmflabs is running low on disk space due to its blazegraph journal dataset size. In order to free up space we will need to take the service down, delete the journal and re-import from the latest dump. Service interruption will begin at Feb 4 18:30 UTC and continue until the data reload is complete.

Just to be clear, this is the host behind https://wcqs-beta.wmflabs.org/. 
 
We'll send out a notification when the downtime begins and when it ends as well.

Note: This doesn't affect WDQS, only the WCQS beta.
