Export a specific MediaWiki webpage as markdown to create a checklist

In my MediaWiki 1.34.2 website I have a webpage which is comprised of various two-columned tables used as checklists (one column for a check and one for a checkmark/xmark).

I want to export that webpage into a markdown (.md) file, which I could edit with a markdown text editor such as Typora and then, after editing it, send it to a customer.

  • In my browser (Chrome), if I go to "print" I can save the webpage as PDF but not as Markdown
  • I found an explanation at rubberduckdev DOT com / mediawiki-to-md which mentions exporting MediaWiki webpages from Special > All pages but I didn't find any export functionality there.
  • There is a CLI tool to do that on GitHub philipashlock/mediawiki-to-markdown but I prefer a GUI way, if possible, without creating anything from scratch


How would you handle that problem?

Bumping after one week.

In great plea, share your suggestion for a solution.

I'd love a revival of this topic. I also explored that GitHub solution to no avail. Please let me know if anything new has come out that helpsw convert MediaWiki to Gitlab Markdown.
