Nice, nice, nice :-)
Hey everyone,
as one of the last things for my Wikipedian in Residency for the
National Archive in the Netherlands i've written a tool to preprocess
XML dumps from their API for processing in the GWT.
Check it out here:
http://tools.wmflabs.org/hay/gwtcook/
I've played around with the GWT with dumps from the National Archive
API, and not all the fields map nicely to the Commons template tags.
Because i like my colleagues there to use the GWT themselves without
my help i thought it would be useful to have a simple tool where they
could upload an XML file from their API and get a transformed version
with extra fields for the GWT upload.
I did a little test run on Commons Beta (haven't got the GWT flag on
production yet) and it seems to work properly there.
Anyway, i could imagine that this might be useful for other people as
well, so if you have some PHP skills feel free to write a
'transformer' and open a pull request so i can include it in the tool.
Code is available over here:
https://github.com/hay/wiki-tools.
Specifically, look at the class-gwtcook*.php files in the 'lib' directory.
Let me know if you've got any comments or remarks.
Kind regards,
-- Hay
