MediaWikiDump

MediaWiki XML Dumps contain the content of a wiki (wiki pages with all their revisions), without the site-related data. A XML dump does not create a full backup of the wiki database, the dump does not contain user accounts, images, edit logs, etc.

Installation and Setup​

We need to install several python packages.

The mediawiki-utilities supports XML schema 0.11 in unmerged branches.

pip install -qU git+https://github.com/mediawiki-utilities/python-mwtypes@updates_schema_0.11

The mediawiki-utilities mwxml has a bug, fix PR pending.

pip install -qU git+https://github.com/gdedrouas/python-mwxml@xml_format_0.11
pip install -qU mwparserfromhell
