Anybody know of a html --> mediawiki parser/script?
by Daniel Paul O'Donnell 02 Jul '09

Hi all, Anybody know of a script or parser that could convert HTML files INTO mediawiki markup? We have a whole bunch of rescued wiki pages from archive.org, but they are only the HTML display version. Cutting and pasting the html into the mediawiki edit window isn't working as cleanly as I thought it might, so I'm looking for something that would strip out markup mediawiki doesn't accept. -dan -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell Associate Professor of English University of Lethbridge Chair and CEO, Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org/) Co-Chair, Digital Initiatives Advisory Board, Medieval Academy of America President-elect (English), Society for Digital Humanities/Société pour l'étude des médias interactifs (http://sdh-semi.org/) Founding Director (2003-2009), Digital Medievalist Project (http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/) Vox: +1 403 329-2377 Fax: +1 403 382-7191 (non-confidental) Home Page: http://people.uleth.ca/~daniel.odonnell/
