  • apertium-desmediawiki/-remediawiki in the apertium package is installed by default, but only handles the basics
    • Usage: cat es-article.wiki | apertium-desmediawiki | apertium -f none es-ca | apertium-remediawiki > ca-article.wiki


  • apertium-mediawiki -- a newer work-in-progress format handler that handles links better (see below)


but can you actually translate wikimedia-formatted articles with it, or just po-files and such?


  • you can run a clean-up script such as wikifix.pl (which is written for nn-nb) after just using the regular format handler
