Hi,

I'm looking to download the "wiki-latest-stub-meta-history.xml" for smaller languages and perform some analytics on it. I dont really care about the english wikipedia because its too large to handle. I want a csv file made out of this xml so that i can do stats modelling on it.

The trouble is I ve been unable to convert this xml to a csv so far. If i can get this to sql then phpmyadmin can spit out a csv. But mwdumper has failed. I've gotten the following error (copied below)

Thanks in advance, Abhishek
