If your work focuses on getting structured data, i recommend using dbpedia.org (http://dbpedia.org/) or freebase.com (http://freebase.com/). They both structure wikipedia data and they have structured query languages.

Hi all, I am new to wikipedia API. can you help me with the following: I want to grep all the content of the "united states of america" to a text file with out images. I am looking a response in text format.
How can I do that? looking for: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States page contents.
I got this url constructed: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=xml&action=query&titles=uni... But I am not getting what I want ..:(.may be I am missing some thing basic
A simple mistake: You are writing the article in lowercase.
Try with http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=xml&action=query&titles=Uni...
I did based on http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php..
1.how can I get the content of what ever string I give in the query? please help me with the url. 2. I am trying to have this in a text file. can I get the response in the text format? other than xml and json?
See the list of formats at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Data_formats#Output
- In the unites_states example, I want to get the first coulm of the citys (
Leading population centers
) how can I get that .
Extracting content from the inside of the article content will require you to perform some parsing of the wikitext.
