Hi Gregor, if you need a SQL database of a Wikipedia dump up and running pretty fast (especially since you’ll be working with a small-ish dump, as opposed to, say, all of enwiki), you might find JWPL (http://code.google.com/p/jwpl/) to be useful.
No, I don’t contribute to that project…aside from bug reports. ☺ - Diane From: xmldatadumps-l-boun...@lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:xmldatadumps-l-boun...@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Gregor Martynus Sent: Monday, July 02, 2012 1:37 PM To: Wikipedia Xmldatadumps-l Subject: [Xmldatadumps-l] custom SQL dump? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, please let me know if there is a better place or if you know somebody whom I could contact. 2 questions: 1. If I'd prepare 3 SQL SELECT queries to run against DEWIKI, could anybody with access actually run them and send me the results as sql dumps? 2. Could I have an SQL dump of http://simple.wikipedia.org/ or another small Wikipedia to prepare the queries? The results will be ~20MB. I was able – with the help of this mailing list – to extract the needed information out of the XML dumps last month, but it took me days to download and process the files and my friend will need the data another 3 - 4 times for her study. I'd really appreciate your help -- Gregor
