Dear John,
Thank you for your response. But I am dump myself and I am still lost.
I am not sure I made my need clear enough. I had wikis under MySQL I
dumped in XML. So I have n XML files to create n separate SQLite
wikis. One file one SQLite wiki (n is around 35).
When I try to read with an XML viewer these files, they tell me that
some character in line 295 or so is wrong and they cannot read it, so
I do not really know how they are structured.
Therefore, my question is about how to create the n SQLwikis I need
and import in each the pages which are in XML dumped from MySQL.
Also, further on, I understand that the manual is reporting about
MySQL dumps, not about SQLite dumps? Does that mean that I should
consider their backup with SQLite tools rathere than mediwiki tools?
Hence my question about a mediawiki SQLite section/mailing list?
Sorry I am pretty new to this and need to take care of a lot of small
Libre/Citizen/locally oriented wikis, with more to come. So I try to
figure out the best way to manage all this ....
Thank you !

I am not familiar with databases. I have old MySQL based wikis sites
I cannot access anymore due to a change in PHP and MySQL versions. I
have old XML dumps. Is it possible to reload them under SQLight
wikis? These were working group wikis: we only are interested in
restoring texts. We have the images. We are not interested in the
access rights: we will have to rebuild them anyway.
Thank you for the help !

PS. We dedicate to light wikis which are OK under SQLight, would
there be a dedicated list to SQLight mangement (and further on development)?
