[Mediawiki-l] Help section

I simply tried exporting one of the Help pages:

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Export/Help:Table

I then tried copying the text to notepad, then uploading the file to my site. After that didn't work, I tried saving the page direct from the browser. That didn't work either. 

You can try to upload it at

Sounds odd. Have you tried saving the XML file directly from the
browser, as opposed to copy-and-paste? Perhaps the browser's inserting
text at the top or bottom, although that would be obvious enough to
avoid when copy and pasting.

If you want me to have a go at getting the XML file, let me know.
