WP-MIRROR Project
Wp-mirror is a free utility for mirroring any desired set of WMF wikis. That is, it builds a wiki farm that the user can browse locally. Many users need such off-line access, often for reasons of mobility, availability, and privacy. Wp-mirror builds a complete mirror with original size images. Wp-mirror is robust and uses check-pointing to resume after interruption.

Wp-mirror by default mirrors the [//simple.wikipedia.org/ simple wikipedia], the [//simple.wiktionary.org/ simple wiktionary] (Simple English means shorter sentences), and the [//www.wikidata.org/ wikidata wiki] (a centralized collection of facts usable by all other wikis). The default should work out-of-the-box with no user configuration. It should build in 200ks (two days), occupy 150G of disk space, be served locally by virtual hosts https://simple.wikipedia.site/, https://simple.wiktionary.site/, and https://www.wikidata.site/, and update automatically every week. The default should be suitable for anyone who learned [//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESL English as a second language (ESL)].

The largest wikis (with over a million articles each) are: [//en.wikipedia.org/ en], [//sv.wikipedia.org/ sv], [//de.wikipedia.org/ de], [//nl.wikipedia.org/ nl], [//fr.wikipedia.org/ fr], [//war.wikipedia.org/ war], [//ru.wikipedia.org/ ru], [//it.wikipedia.org/ it], [//ceb.wikipedia.org/ ceb], [//es.wikipedia.org/ es], [//vi.wikipedia.org/ vi], and [//pl.wikipedia.org/ pl]. Because wp-mirror uses original size image files, the largest wikis are too large to fit on a laptop with a single 500G disk, unless the user does not need the images (and this is configurable). The [//en.wikipedia.org/ en wikipedia] is the most demanding case. It should build in 1Ms (twelve days), occupy 4T of disk space, be served locally by virtual host https://en.wikipedia.site/, and update automatically every month.
