I'm downloading a dead wiki from the wayback machine using a script I found on GitHub.
I then plan to restore it using the tool html2mediawiki to then host it on my server.
Did anyone already do something like this and has any advice?
@mint
Thanks! How would you go about finding one of those dumps? The wiki was not mine, I just want to restore it since I find it useful.
@rastinza
RSS feed page is probably similar to what is suggested but might not be obvious
( as RSS is extended XML which might be good if it the RSS existed for it as it hold data all in 1 page also... and to search for that as keyword or standard page archived ) - might still then be able to feed that into existing RSS progs and ways to give it new life...
@freeschool I doubt an rss feed exists, how would you make a feed out of a wiki?
Anyways, even if that existed I doubt I could get the complete feed from the wayback machine.
@rastinza
Yeah I assumed some might have it auto-generated.
@rastinza I only have an unnecessary advice: call it wikill
