Hi Mediawiki users,
I have experienced a repeatable problem in which after importing a mediawiki database dump, I need to Export the language templates from the live site and import them into my local instance. I use MWDumper to build an SQL file which is read into my local MySql instance. The problem is that the language templates articles are not included in the dump.
I am referring to all templates articles that have the following form:
Template:EN
EN in this could be any language code.
This is not limited any particular Mediawiki dump, they all seem to have this problem. That being said, it is not much to simply import the missing templates manually, I was wondering if anyone had experienced this problem or has a quicker solution than the manual import/export.
Best Regards, Nathan Day
