Hi, I wasn't sure whether this was the appropriate mailing list for this question - if not, pointers to the correct one would be appreciated.
I would like to retrieve pages that contain, say, a DrugBox. The following URL lists all pages that contain this info box
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Dru...
What I'd like to do is then do a bulk export of these pages. As far as I can tell, the Export options require that one provide article titles. Furthermore, for some other infoboxes I have to page through the results. Instead I'd like to do this programmatically.
The obvious solution would be to load Wikipedia into a local MySQL DB and then perform the queries directly. But I'm interested in a rather small subset of Wikipedia and loading the whole thing locally seems overkill.
Is there a way I could export the articles containing Drugboxes or do I need to install Wikipedia locally?
Thanks,
