Hi!

I would like to build a ZIM file of the Simple English Wikipedia including the full resolution images for educational use in a region without reliable Internet access.

So far as I can tell, I would need to:

* grab a copy of the current dump and use something like http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikix to populate it with images

* set it up to be served via HTTP, possibly by importing into a local mediawiki instance

...alternatively:

* http://www.nongnu.org/wp-mirror/

And then:

* spider the whole thing into html/images using curl/wget

* use Zimwriter+buildZimFromDirectory as per here: https://openzim.org/Build_your_ZIM_file



Good plan? Better plan? Is there a flag on any of this to limit things to redistributable images so I can add a torrent for the resulting (est. 50-60Gb) file to the kiwix site?


Best,
Jason Skomorowski
