It was removed from that article recently (19 Oct 2016: https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Alternative_parsers&type=revision&diff=2265815&oldid=2247632) with the following comment:
"That link has been dead for over a year now as per this stackoverflow comment: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13546254/whats-a-fast-way-to-parse-a-wikipedia-xml-dump-for-article-content-and-populate " If you'd like to explain what you would have used DizzyLogic for, I'd love to help you figure out how to use Parsoid to accomplish your goals. It's an officially-supported WMF parser which has much better correctness that any 'alternative' parser out there, implements a friendly API similar to mwparserfromhell (see https://doc.wikimedia.org/Parsoid/master/#!/guide/jsapi), and has a well-documented AST (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Specs/HTML/1.2.1) which can be directly fetched via the REST api (cf https://en.wikipedia.org/api/ ). I believe dumps have also been planned, but I'm not sure what the current status is. --scott On Fri, Nov 11, 2016 at 7:57 AM, Reem Al-Kashif <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Pine, > > Thank you for your reply.
