WikiLink - The Mediawiki Interface
WikiLink is actually two separate things; firstly, a java class for interfacing with a mediawiki server, and secondly, a Mathematica package providing a wrapper around this. This page documents the Mathematica package, while the java class, and its addition functionality, will be documented elsewhere.
WikiLink is available as a standalone package, suitable for use with any Mediawiki installation, and is included in the KnotTheory` package.

Otherwise, download WikiLink.zip. Unzip this anywhere you like. This will create a subdirectory called WikiLink, containing (at least) these files:
| Filename | Description |

Troubleshooting
The instruction ShowJavaConsole[] will bring up a window in which some debugging information is displayed.
Compatibility
WikiLink has been tested against mediawiki 1.4.5beta3 and 1.4.7.
WikiLink has known issues on mediawiki 1.5.0. Retrieving multiple pages at once is broken. This appears to be a mediawiki bug, and will not be fixed. The same problem does not occur on mediawiki 1.5.8. --Scott 10:56, 27 Mar 2006 (EST)
I expect WikiGetPage text to continue working in mediawiki 1.5 and beyond, because it uses the stable interface Special:Export. Logging in and setting pages will quite likely break in the next version. If you've tried this, please let me know about your experiences. I'm hoping that soon (1.5?) Special:Import will become available, and I can switch to using this. --Scott 15:57, 31 Aug 2005 (EDT)
