[edit] What can this extension do?
Converts markup fragments or whole articles to XML and from XML to other stuff. See here how it works: [1]
[edit] Installation
Download all the files from [2] and put them into a "wiki2xml" folder inside your "extensions" folder. Add the following line in your LocalSettings.php:
require_once ("extensions/wiki2xml/extension.php");
Lookup the README file for an alternative installation as cgi-bin script and configuration. The extension can then be accessed as "Special:Wiki2XML".
[edit] To download the files
If you have SubVersion installed then use the following command to download the files to directory "php" under the current directory:
svn export http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/wiki2xml/php/
See Subversion for more info.
[edit] Help
This extension is kind of outdated. For example some templates with tables aren't parsed right. Magnus Manske has abandoned this extension due to a lack of time. If you want to contribute to this extension, feel free to do so and join the discussion page.
