Re: [Wikitech-l] Getting pictures to show up in mediawiki

----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Rabagliati" <andyr(a)wizzy.com To: "Wikimedia developers" <wikitech-l(a)wikimedia.org Subject: [Wikitech-l] Getting pictures to show up in mediawiki Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2006 11:16:29 +0200 Folks, In support of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team I am trying to automate the cutting down of the English Wikipedia dump. This would be used to create a CD or DVD with content from a chosen list of articles. I have documented the steps I take on the page above, and one of my problems is that I cannot get pictures to show up. I have tried adding enwiki-20060518-imagelinks.sql.gz to my mediawiki installation, but I think this just provides the reverse - indicating from a picture page which articles link to it ? If I upload a picture, it works. What I would like is to put all the pictures where the uploaded one would go, and have it all 'magically' work. At the moment all pictures show up as redlinks, like http://localhost/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Upload&wpDestFile=Lunar-P… Which XML dump should I add, or what else could I include from the enwiki-20060518-pages-articles.xml.bz2 file to make pictures work ? Cheers, Andy! _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l(a)wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
