I'd like to write a script that will mine the

I should have no problem writing this script in PHP, Perl or even Python but
I will need some help accessing the most current form of the text in the
media wiki. Does anyone know how to mine the most current text while
ignoring the rest?
Don't mine text - there's a database table where external links are stored.
