In our current implementation, loose lists and tight lists look the same visually. Loose lists are lists with blank lines between list items, and the contents of a list item should be enclosed in a paragraph tag in that case. For unordered lists, paragraph tags have a bottom margin in starlight and thus looses lists look much more spaced out than tight lists. That is not the behaviour we had in mind while writing the documentation, the reason we had all these loose lists is to make the documentation easy to write and read. So we attempt to remove all the blank lines and fix the problem at source. Since paragraph tags are used for other purposes in a list in starlight, it won't be a wise decision to let the source be as is and just change things in css, other expected behaviours might break in that case. See this topic for more details: https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/channel/19-documentation/topic/new.20help.20center.3A.20regressions/near/2226084 All the changes were made by a one-off script which has not been commited to the repo. The script wasn't perfect and could not decide between blank lines that make a list loose vs blank lines necessary for a sub-list or a code block inside a list item. A manual review of all the changes was done before making this commit to ensure that no unintended changes were made to the help center files.

Export your organization
!!! warn ""
If you're self-hosting Zulip, you may want to check out the
documentation on [server export and import][export-and-import] or
[server backups][production-backups].
Zulip has high quality export tools that can be used to migrate between the hosted Zulip Cloud service and your own servers. Two types of data exports are available for all Zulip organizations:
- Export of public data: Complete data for your organization other than private channel messages and direct messages. This export includes user settings and channel subscriptions.
- Standard export: Everything in the export of public data, plus all the private channel messages and direct messages that members who have allowed administrators to export their private data can access.
Two additional types of data exports are available to corporate Zulip Cloud Standard and Zulip Cloud Plus customers:
- Full export without member consent: All the data in the organization.
- Compliance export: A targeted, human-readable export of messages matching some combination of criteria (e.g., sender, recipient, message keyword, or timestamp).
