Hi, I was planning on using pywikibot to import an XML dump of Wikipedia articles to another Wiki, but I wasn't able to understand the instructions. If you could walk me through it, I would appreciate it:
Manual:Importing XML dumps#Using pywikibot, pagefromfile.py and Nokogiri
I'm not a pywikibot expert. Those instructions would be new to me, as well. But if you're trying to import a dump, you don't need pywikibot. See Manual:FAQ#How do I install an existing wiki, like Wikipedia or Wiktionary?
The easiest, but not the fastest, is MediaWiki's Special:Import page. Then there is the importDump.php script. I've used mwdumper, but it isn't being maintained any more.
So, it looks like pywikibot is your best choice. I can only offer that someone in this chat room might be able to help.
