Subject: back into a wiki
Date: Wed, 09 Aug 2006 22:28:21 +0800
To: bug-parse-mediawikidump [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Dan Jacobson <jidanni [...] jidanni.org>
Just like cpio has -i and -o, it seems there is no mention of how to use this too to inject articles back into a wiki. (One can't find a way to add articles into a wiki via a batch mode.)
Following the concept of cpio is nice and unixy but I think that putting articles back into a mediawiki instance should remain with the tools that ship with it. There is a way to restore an instance from a dump already and I don't see a reason that it should be duplicated in perl. Tyler On Wed Aug 09 12:44:49 2006, jidanni@jidanni.org wrote: Show quoted text
