What is the easiest way to delete all articles. I want to set up a small wikifarm an want to use an existing wiki with pictures for a commons like wiki. Therefore i have to delete all articles within that existing wiki.
Does there exist allready a script (php or sql) ?
It might be easier to copy the images over. I think you can just copy them from the image folder of one wiki to the image folder of the other, and then run the appropriate php script to produce the image pages (I don't know which script, but it will be something like importImages.php).
I want to keep the uploading informations (who, what, from where).
You could copy the image folder (the images), user and image table (for who and when) and import a dump of the image namespace* (description of where).
*dumpBackup.php should allow to select the namespaces, but i'm unable right now to find out how.
