App/Import/Overview
From XOWA: the free, open-source, offline wiki application
XOWA provides several options to import a wiki.
Import online by click
The Dashboard/Import/Online page lists 800+ wikis that can be imported by clicking on a link.
- Simple: Find a wiki, click on it, and it will be imported.
- Online: Intended for users who have internet access.
Import offline by script
The Dashboard/Import/Offline page can generate a script that will import a wiki.
- Online and offline: Can be used by "online users" and "offline users". Offline users must have already downloaded a database dump file. See http://dumps.wikimedia.org/backup-index.html
Import by command-line
The Dev/Command-line page offers instructions on importing through the command-line.
- Full control: Offers full control of the XOWA import process
- Complicated: Requires command-line usage. Intended for advanced users.
