<div>Anyone have a process or tool for this besides manually

I've encountered this hiccup with a few teams now. Most folks
I've talked to about it would like an easy way to transfer
text from etherpads to wikis quickly, without having to worry
about writing the etherpad text in wiki markup.<br>

I just filed <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T127207" target="_blank">https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T127207</a> .. once that
is fixed (which shouldn't be difficult), you can take the HTML from
etherpad and use Parsoid to serialize it to wikitext (via
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/?doc#!/Transforms/post_transform_html_to_wikitext_title_revision" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/?doc#!/Transforms/post_transform_html_to_wikitext_title_revision</a>)
which basically talks to Parsoid (or
<a href="http://parsoid-lb.eqiad.wikimedia.org/_html/" target="_blank">http://parsoid-lb.eqiad.wikimedia.org/_html/</a> .. but this entrypoint
is going away soon).<br>
<br>
We'll try to fix T127207 soon which should make this usable. The
output will still need some massaging. This is still not quite
seamless .. but, a first step.<br>
<br>
Over the last 6 months, we have had different possibilities like
this emerge. google doc html -> wikitext; markup (github or other
flavours) -> wikitext; and now etherpad html -> wikitext.
Perhaps we should provide some helper web api somewhere that uses
parsoid under the hood to massage the html a bit and generate clean
wikitext. Looks like a good opw / gsoc project. :)<br>
