<p>
The <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Dashboard/Import/Online.html" id="xolnki_2" title="Dashboard/Import/Online" class="xowa-visited">list of data dumps</a> allows you to download dumps for any wiki with one mouse click. However, there are times when you want to manually import a wiki:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
You want a dump from a specific time period (EX: 20121220)
</li>
<li>
You want the dump that has talk pages (EX: pages-meta-current)
</li>
<li>
You want a dump that doesn't happen to be on the list (EX: none known, but may happen)
</li>
<li>
You want to customize the process for multiple wikis
</li>
<li>
You encountered an error, and can not use the automated process.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Manual_import_types">Manual import types</span>
</h2>
<p>
There are currently two ways to do a manual import
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Manually import the wiki through xowa_build.gfs.
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
This will offer you the greatest flexibility, but requires some familiarity with a command-line interface. You can read more at <a href="/xowa/wiki/home/page/Dev/Command-line.html" id="xolnki_3" title="Dev/Command-line" class="xowa-visited">Dev/Command-line</a>
</dd>
</dl>
<ul>
<li>
Manually import the wiki through altering the xowa_command
</li>
</ul>
<dl>
<dd>
This has less flexibility than the xowa_build.gfs. However, it only requires editing a wiki page, and then clicking the icon
</dd>
</dl>
<h2>
<span class="mw-headline" id="Manual_import_using_the_xowa_command">Manual import using the xowa_command</span>
</h2>
<p>
To do a manual import using the xowa_command, do the following
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Click "Edit" in the top right-hand corner
</li>
<li>
Look at the last lines of this page
</li>
<li>
Substitute 'simple.wikipedia.org' with your wiki's name
</li>
<li>
Change the date from 'latest' to whatever date you're interested in (EX: '20121220')
</li>
<li>
Change 'pages-articles' to 'pages-meta-current' if you want talk pages (Note: they are generally twice the size of the regular wiki)
</li>
<li>
Save the page
</li>
<li>
Click "Setup Custom Wiki"
</li>
</ul>
