I currently have a mediawiki site and I want to import the articles into Drupal. I found the flexifilter module, and have tried the built in mediawiki filter, but it needs some tweaking. It turns all my internal links into links to Wikipedia's site. Has anyone created a flexifilter that does a better import. Also, it doesn't do well with latex math. I appreciate any suggestions you might have.
Thank you.

Anybody done this before?
I'm sure someone has done this already, just though getting in touch with that person. If your out there, please message me, could use a small pointer on this.
Thanks
Hello, i think you have to
Hello,
i think you have to change the URL in the default mediawiki filter.
Klick all changeable positions until you found the url of en.mediawiki....
change this to your url and then it should work.
But, just today with drupal 6.3 you will not find a working flexifilter module what is working now.
Wait until the next RC of flexifilters modul.
I hope this helps you.
best regards from Thailand

MediaWiki filter
Hi!
I wrote a kind of guide lines on how to proceed to import a MediaWiki content
into Drupal. In that tutorial, I also provide a filter using Flexifilter to support more Wiki tags than current MediaWiki filter (the one provided with the flexifilter module). It's mostly based on regular expressions and appears to support wiki tables, wiki lists and links. I'm quite sure that there are still some bugs but at least, it works for me. You can find it there:

Thank you a lot for your module! Now I'm working a lot on it to get a full and perfect mediawiki syntax. For improvement see this thread (http://drupal.org/node/212417) or contact me.
