Recipe created https://farm.openzim.org/recipes/oeis.org_en_all I'll update the library link once ready

The recipe was taking 7 days to scrape 11%, I've stopped it an re-run it again.

There is a mediawiki at https://oeis.org/wiki/

We cannot scrape mediawiki websites with zimit unless very special configuration is put in place (and this is not even recommended).

There is 49 languages supported, I don't get why we create only one ZIM.

The website seems to be centered around a search boxes to search for integer sequences. These search functionalities are not going to work inside the ZIM, they need an online server. Are we sure the ZIM will still be usable without this search box? (I doubt it will, at least not as-is with zimit, or we need to find proper home page).

Some "sub-sites" like https://oeis.org/play and https://oeis.org/plot2.html (and maybe others, I did not investigated all of them) are not going to work, they need a server to generate the audio file based on user input.

To move forward, we need to more precisely define:

• what do we want inside the ZIM?
• do we create one ZIM per language as usual?
• what is the strategy for the wiki? we create a separate ZIM? we try to tune zimit config to scrape the mediawiki because it is going to be too cumbersome for users to have two ZIMs, one with the integer sequences and one with the wiki?

Note: task e130bc44-0dfc-4901-ba92-1cf894731d05 is marked as succeeded, but in fact the crawler crashed with "Browser disconnected (crashed?), interrupting crawl" message, the ZIM is not usable.

What about changing the the website to: https://oeis.org/wiki/Welcome ? @benoit74 I think this it the target in the request?
