Could you describe the database data. Log into mysql and find out some information about
the databases. Here is a start.
use MyDatabase;
show tables;
and for the tables you are interested in, type something like
describe MyTableName;
and show us the result. Currently we have no idea if this is a catalog of every Edison
Disc record ever made or something more abstract, such as machine generated data gathered
from web bots. The application, interpretation and plan to migration are highly variable
depending on the type of data.

Khaled, your response was extremely unhelpful. Yes we know you
have a
database. What is in it, and how do you want it imported to
mediawiki?
Mediawiki isn't a magical piece of software for all issues

What does the data look like, and what do you mean by populating
the wiki
pages with it?
