Description
When I try to download the English Wikipedia dataset using:
python -m tensorflow_datasets.scripts.download_and_prepare --datasets=wikipedia/20200301.en
I get the error:
tensorflow_datasets.core.download.downloader.DownloadError:
Failed to get url https://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/enwiki/20200301/dumpstatus.json. HTTP code: 404.
I would like to download it locally (not on GCS).

Research direction
Start by rerunning the provided download_and_prepare command and checking the failing Wikimedia dumpstatus.json URL and its 404 response. Trace how the Wikipedia dataset download resolves that URL for local downloads; done means the English 20200301 dataset can be downloaded locally without the reported DownloadError.
