Hi,

My attempts to convert a mediawiki XML export to git repository failed. (Most likely due an ancient mediawiki engine at my side.)

I think it would be a good thing, if this git repository contains a known good mediawiki XML export. Good for this project for having a reference XML, good for new users like me for having a "See, it works!".

Please add a mediawiki_export.xml to this git repository.

In the short term, there was some discussion of examples from Wikipedia (the size varies dramatically by language) on this issue tracker.

In the medium term, I think I have some real world examples on my desktop computer but am currently away. I'll be home next week so feel free to remind me if I don't reply.
