The Parsoid project gives the ability to parse HTML, however the results definitely need to be examined to see how it might be able to work

== Transforming HTML to WikiText ==

<~~source~~ lang="bash">cat uvm.html | webapps/wiki/extensions/parsoid/tests/parse.js --html2wt</~~source~~>

Transforming (hopefully well-formed) HTML to WikiText is required if you want to import HTML content into a wiki. Some editors do well at this, and perhaps the best editor to do this is the [[Visual editor]] which now is the default editor for the MediaWiki project.

== Parsoid ==

The [[mw:Parsoid]]<ref>Git repo https://git.wikimedia.org/summary/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FParsoid</ref> project gives the ability to parse HTML, however the results definitely need to be examined to see how it might be able to work. Take a look at the [[mw:Parsoid/MediaWiki DOM spec]] for capabilities.

Example usage

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">cat uvm.html | webapps/wiki/extensions/parsoid/tests/parse.js --html2wt</syntaxhighlight>

== Other Classes or Libraries ==

The 'Wikilog' extension <ref>See also [[MediaWiki/Bundles]]</ref> is a [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Wikilog MediaWiki extension that adds "blogging" features] <ref>however, it's unmaintained, so see the modified version at github</ref> to MediaWiki (e.g. http://laussy.org/wiki/Blog). One aspect of the project is a PHP class that transforms HTML to wiki text. See https://github.com/mediawiki4intranet/Wikilog/blob/master/HtmlToMediaWiki.php Also, the Wikilog extension makes use of namespaces to create multiple blogs.
