Thread:User talk:Yair rand/Translations from an Xml dump/reply (4)

On the one hand I replied to heyzeuss, that we are working on something that he is looking for, but it will need some more time. On the other hand, I wanted to give you a short update and piggybacked that on the message. I will have a look at the Beer Parlour discussion soon. Scraping data from Wiktionary is difficult since each language version is different. So instead of making some fixed code in python or Java to scrape the data, we are implementing a configurable system. Every interested Wiktionry user like heyzeuss can then alter the configuration (which is like a simplified regex) to say what he wants to have parsed out. SebastianHellmann 19:20, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
