Nick,
I am using MediaWiki version 1.7 for the Wikipedia mirror. However, when I copied the
"essential" extensions Cite.php and
ParserExtensions.php and enabled them both in LocalSettings.php, I am seeing a lot of
errors. However, when I disable Cite.php, then the errors disappear, but
<ref.../ref> no longer work.
On googling this problem, I find that I am not the only one. How can this issue be
resolved?
Thanks.
Krishna

I have already built a mirror of en.wikipedia at
http://freeknowledge.dyndns.org/ however some of the
pages are not rendered properly. For e.g.
http://freeknowledge.dyndns.org/index.php/India
Any suggestions/advice on how to fix this
Looks like you haven't installed Parser Functions (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions ) or any of the other extensions used on
the Wikipedia.
Compare:
http://freeknowledge.dyndns.org/index.php/Special:Version
To :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version
... you want everything under "Parser hooks" to be the same on your wiki as per
the Wikipedia, in order to have the best chance of Wikipedia content displaying correctly
on your wiki. You can download the extensions you need from
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions , and get documentation for
most of the extensions from
meta.wikimedia.org (e.g.
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cite/Cite.php#How_to_install )
All the best,
Nick.
