shortDescription=This demonstration collection is made from (an old version of) the Greenstone Wiki website. It describes how to build a Greenstone collection from a MediaWiki website.

description1=<h3>How the collection works</h3><p>The collection configuration file, <tt>collectionConfig.xml</tt>, contains the plugins <i>MediaWikiPlugin</i>, <i>ImagePlugin</i>, <i>ZipPlugin</i>, <i>PDFPlugin</i>, <i>PowerPointPlugin</i>, <i>WordPlugin</i> (along with the standard plugins <i>GreenstoneXMLPlugin</i>, <i>ArchivesInfPlugin</i> and <i>DirectoryPlugin</i>). The <i>MediaWikiPlugin</i> handles the HTML pages downloaded from a MediaWiki website, while <i>ImagePlugin</i>, <i>ZipPlugin</i>, <i>PDFPlugin</i>, <i>PowerPointPlugin</i> and <i>WordPlugin</i> handle the image, zip, PDF, PowerPoint and Word files associated with the Greenstone Wiki.</p>

description2=<p>To build a collection from a MediaWiki website of your choice, you would first download the wiki files using the <i>MediaWiki</i> option on the <i>Download</i> panel of GLI. This download type works in a similar way to a the <i>Web</i> download, but is specially designed for crawling MediaWiki websites.</p>

description3=<p>Once the files are downloaded, copy them into a collection using the <i>Gather</i>, dragging them from the <i>Downloaded Files</i> folder in the Workspace tree on the left-hand side.</p>

description4=<p>In the <i>Document Plugins</i> section of the <i>Design</i> panel, add <i>MediaWikiPlugin</i>. <i>MediaWikiPlugin</i> has several specific options which control aspects of page presentation, such as whether or not the table of contents, navigation toolbars and search box are shown on each page. Configure these options based on how you want the pages to appear. You can see the options used by this collection in its collection configuration file, <tt>collectionConfig.xml</tt>.</p>
