fetch the html from wikipedia.org with something like wget
(playing nicely and using delays!) and then extract the
first element with somet
Ok. I can answer myself the question, it is: no.
It doesn't depend on the Wikipedia language.

Hi Magnus,
This would be really great if I could do that!
Where can I download the "real" parser?
Can I use it in the following way:
=> let's suppose:
- the parser's name is "wiki_to_html_parser",
- I have a "Wikipedia" article in its "Wikitext" version
"article.wikitext",

Hi Axel,
Thank you for your answer.
I am wondering... how do you explain that the two templates

Is it because "Bliki" works correctly with English

So why not use the "real" parser?
* Get rendered HTML page
* Extract
* Take the first element in there
Profit!

Maybe it is, I don't know...
I know (since recently) it is not an easy task constructing a parser for
"Wikitext"...

Hi,
So... I was over-optimistic about managing to extract the first
paragraph of a "Wikipedia" article out of its "Wikitext" easily...
Yet, I managed (1) for instance (for the "Wikipedia" article "Čokot")
to get the following "Wikitext" sentence:

The current "parser" is, as David Gerard said, not much of a parser by
any conventional definition. It's more of a macro-expander (for parser
tags and templates) and a series of mostly-regular-expression-based
replacement routines, which result in partially valid HTML which is then

Are you sure this will be able to extract the
introductory paragraph (only) which is not in any
section... (because it is not trivial).
There is only one example I could find at
http://code.pediapress.com/wiki/wiki/mwlib

Thank you!
So here is the list I have for the moment:
I need to ignore lines:
- containing: {{...}}

Hi,
there might be an occurrence of __TOC__ or __NOTOC__ before the first "real"
paragraph.
Good luck with finding all exeptions. :)

Hi,
Thanks to all of you for your answers.
I have decided (in the light of what you told me)
to read the "Wikitext" line after line.
I must "ignore" leading:
- templates (including the ones which span
over several consecutive lines like "infoboxes"): {{...}},
- isolated internal links: [[...]
