Description: I am looking for someone to install the MediaWiki with all the whole wikipedia data dumps (language-based) on my server and have them searcheable and editable within my website template. This installation should be flexible to make some modifications such as adding Adsense.

The databases are in XML format but could be converted to SQL if needed. The server is a Linux server with Plesk and has all the mediawiki installations if it is needed to get the job done. All database dumps are already installed on the server but you might need to reupload them if needed:

This is what I found for the MediaWiki installation:

OR

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/PHP_configuration

The latest version of Media Wiki can be downloaded here: http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.11/mediawiki-1.11.0.tar.gz

I think the one you said you tried was Version 1.10, maybe we need to use the latest upgrade 1.11?

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installing_MediaWiki:

What I am trying to do is install the databases within my site template and enable someone to search for articles on my site. Each article page can be editable and have an Adsense code.

I have tried to install the wiki but have had problems. The problem is that the database generated (from XML or .sql files that I uploaded), is not being correctly interpreted by any version of the mediawiki. Also the download files with latest database structure/dates from wikipedia server are not completely decompressed.

I am not an expert at this but would need someone to perform an installation of the mediawiki or perform the necessary action that would be able to make my site search articles and parse them and also make them editable on my site. My site template will be used and have the wiki run from within it.

I would like someone who has done this job before and is experienced because i need this done ASAP.
