Also, I'm fairly certain that Wikitaxi will not be able to take an
incremental dump file (2013-April) and append / update an existing Wikitaxi
database (your 2013-Jan).
There is also the larger issue of Scribunto support. The 2013-April English
Wikipedia dump comes down with significant {{#invoke}} tags for Refs,
Navboxes, convert, etc.. Since Wikitaxi was last updated in 2010-June, it's
safe to say that you will just see {{#invoke}} in place of actual content.
If you're working with a Wikipedia in a different language, then this will
be less of a factor.
If you're interested in using a 2013-April English Wikipedia dump, you
could try xowa:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xowa/ It is a free,
open-source, offline wikipedia app that does handle Scribunto and has other
features. Note that I am the xowa developer.
You can also try sending an email to the Wikitaxi mailing list for a
definitive answer:

Hope this helps.

There are experimental incremental dumps [1],
but I'm not sure if they would work for you, especially since they don't
seem to go to January.
There's also a proposed Google Summer of Code project to make this possible
[2],
but that's going to be completed in September at the earliest.
So, right now, I think the best option is to download the whole dump again.

Hi!. I downloaded “pages-articles.xml.bz2″ and I
am using it through
WikiTaxi. It’s working fine but I have a question. I downloaded the above
mentioned dump which was created in Jan. 2013. Now there’s the new
version
of this dump available created in April 2013. My
question is can I update
my older dump to the current one without downloading all the data? I only
need the updates.
Please help.
