If you are a WikiMedia Sysop you'll know about the import/export feature. This enables you to export any existing WikiMedia pages as an XML archive, and also to import such XML archives into a WikiMedia server. I am considering this option instead of the HTTP mechanism illustrated in the code I previously attached. BUT... I don't know anything about the WikiMedia import/export XML format. (Although as a Sysop on my test server, I can easily get samples.) Has anyone got any experience using the import/export feature? If so, this is something I'd be very interested to know about because this mechanism can preserve timestamps and other metadata. ---Rotan. [...]
