XOWA supports custom creation of wikis by matching articles against words. For example, you can create an English Wikipedia that doesn't have any Pokemon articles. Or you can create an English Wikipedia that just has Pokemon articles. The system is intricate but should be quite powerful.

WMF is currently having problems with the XML data dumps.

I finished uploading the files for English Wikipedia. Note that these files are just like the 2015-04 set, except that the max file size is 1.5 GB instead of 3 GB. Android can't use 3 GB files.

Unfortunately, right now, there are 3 types of sets for English Wikipedia: v1, v2a and v2b.

Users are strongly encouraged to download the new 2015-06 set (v2b), especially if they're going to use Android. However, I will continue to support monthly updates for v1 and v2a over the next year.

v2.5.4.1 is a significant release. In brief, it involved a rewrite of the online file downloading system to use the same system as the offline version. It also includes instructions for building the image databases on <a href="http://xowa.org/home/wiki/Dashboard/Image_databases.html" id="xolnki_25" title="Dashboard/Image databases">Dashboard/Image_databases</a> as well as an Android alpha.
