There is a special page at wikipedia called Special:Export that gives the page Wiki-text and date in XML. You can access to it either by submitting a form at Special:Export with several needed pages, or "get" it page by page this way:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export/Main_page
Use this with care, the wiki servers are overloaded.

Hi,
I have a quick question: What is the best way to integrate wikipedia into other applications without using the html interface? I would like to integrate the search functionality and the content docs into my app. Is there an xml interface to the wikipedia? I would like to bypass screen scraping. Ideal would be a REST style interface.
The application is a public project where I try to connect webservices in a random way: http://konnexion.sourceforge.net/
I would love to integrate wikipedia.
Thanks for any feedback, Stan Wiechers
