You need to you the collection extension to build an save a collection. * go to an arbitrary category page (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Books_about_evolution) * enable the book mode (in the english wikipedia you need to be logged in to do so) * then click "Add this category to your book" * save the collection: click "Show book" and then save the collection ("Save and share your collection"). It is best to save the collection below your userpage You can now access your saved book via the collection page (e.g.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Volker.haas/Books/test) You can render that collection like so: mw-render -w rl -o book.pdf --collectionpage 'User:Volker.haas/Books/test' -c :en Hope this helps, Volker -- volker haas brainbot technologies ag fon +49 6131 2116394 boppstraße 64 fax +49 6131 2116392 55118 mainz [email protected] http://www.brainbot.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mwlib" group.
