Hi,
Is there a way to get the first sentence of the first paragraph of the wiki page?
 
For example, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs I would need the below
 
Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs (/ˈɒbz/; February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011)[3][4] was an American entrepreneur,[5] marketer,[6] and inventor,[7] who was the cofounder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc.
 
Thanks
