Hi,
I am sending you the latex source of the main page of the chinese wikipedia as attachment to your personal Email. You can look at it. But if you want to compile it you need to have ubuntu 14.04 and do

sudo apt-get install mediawiki2latex
xelatex main.tex

Yours Dirk

PS: If about the -c command line option: Its just
mkdir mylatextree
mediawiki2latex -u https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page -o outputfile.pdf -c mylatextree
So in you don't need any Haskell for that. You just need linux.

I don't really have an idea about how to "go for the command line version and use the -c command line option"; I know nothing about Haskell anyway...

I hope that it's available on the web, is it possible to add a checkbox or something?

    Hi,
    I didn't take any special care about CJK. Its a bit hard for me
    since I cannot read any of these languages myself. Maybe you can
    have a look at the LaTeX source and tell me what I need to change.
    Currently no CJK package is loaded. The only thing I am doing is
    to switch to ttf fonts that contain CJK characters when I need to
    print them. Also I am using babel packages. For some languages I
    get proper hyphenation this way, but apparently something does not
    work here for Chinese.
    Yours Dirk

    I had a try using an article on Chinese Wikipedia. Although I'm
    not sure whether the cause is in generated LaTeX source or the
    way you invoke LaTeX, the most notable problem is that in output
    PDF, word wrap doesn't take place correctly so almost every line
    overflows. See
    
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word_wrap#Word_wrapping_in_text_containing_Chinese.2C_Japanese.2C_and_Korean
    for more information.

        Hi,
        if you want the tex source go for the command line version
        and use the -c command line option. If you want to convert
        from tex to mediawiki use pandoc. In the imprint of each pdf
        there is a link to the sourceforge page. Its slow, but I
        cannot make it any faster. Its mostly the runtime of LaTeX
        itself. I already invested two weeks in optimizing speed. In
        particular its using multiple cores, while in my code. But
        well there is not much you can do with multiple cores when
        running LaTeX itself. You could actully get some speed by
        using native cores, but the administration is not that easy.
        It also says on the main page that it will take up to ten
        minutes.
        Yours Dirk

            I would probably link to the source code and a bug
            tracker on its main page.
            - I see it generated a PDF. Nicely formatted. :) But the
            TeX source would be also useful.
            - It would be nice to be able to convert back from tex to
            wiki markup also.
            - It also appears to be dog slow (about 5 minutes).

            Gryllida.
