Yes, you can upload the MediaWiki database dump (or specific tables from it), and I can help you search and analyze the data. If you want to perform searches, generate summaries, or extract specific content, I can process the database file and assist with queries.

Steps:

  1. Export the Database
    • If you haven't already, export your MediaWiki database as a SQL dump or a structured format like XML or JSON.
  2. Upload the File
    • Use the file upload option here, and I'll process it.
  3. Specify Your Needs
    • Let me know what you're looking for: searching specific pages, extracting content, analyzing trends, etc.

Option 1: Using MySQL Command Line

If you're using MySQL/MariaDB, you can export the database using mysqldump:

  1. Find your database name
    • It’s usually set in LocalSettings.php under $wgDBname.
  2. Run the export command Replace yourwiki with your actual database name: mysqldump -u root -p yourwiki > yourwiki.sql
  3. If your database is large, compress it: mysqldump -u root -p yourwiki | gzip > yourwiki.sql.gz

Option 2: Using phpMyAdmin

If you have phpMyAdmin access:

  1. Log in to phpMyAdmin.
  2. Select your MediaWiki database.
  3. Click Export → Choose SQL format.
  4. Click Go to download the file.

Option 3: Using MediaWiki's XML Dump

For page content only (without user data and settings):

  1. Use the built-in dump generator: php maintenance/dumpBackup.php --full > dump.xml

This exports all pages as an XML file.


Once you export the file (.sql, .gz, or .xml), upload it here, and I’ll help you search and analyze the data.
