taking wikipedia and dumping into pier

[John M McIntosh]

Ok, I had someone ask if they could take enwiki-latest-pages-
articles.xml.bz2 and dump into Pier.

I should ask if anyone has ever done that? Or is this an exercise left  
to the reader...

Never done that. I've only migrated from WikiWorks, SWiki and SmallWiki.

John,

we were working on adding wikimedia support to pier, but then Lucas
removed the SmaCC based parser

Well you could make it an addon extension? So how far along was the  
effort?

We switched to attempting to support the wiki "standard" instead. This
resulted in a custom parser, but unfortunately not that relevant to
wikimedia.

Ok, well I think the data be referred to is
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Persondata

Er so how is that different from the wikimedia or the wiki 'standard'
