    <p>
      The <a href="/wiki/Dashboard/Import/Online" id="xolnki_2" title="Dashboard/Import/Online">list of data dumps</a> allows you to download dumps for any wiki with one mouse click. However, there are times when you want to manually import a wiki:
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>
        You want a dump from a specific time period (EX: 20121220)
      </li>
      <li>
        You want the dump that has talk pages (EX: pages-meta-current)
      </li>
      <li>
        You want a dump that doesn't happen to be on the list (EX: none known, but may happen)
      </li>
      <li>
        You want to customize the process for multiple wikis
      </li>
      <li>
        You encountered an error, and can not use the automated process.
      </li>
    </ul>
    <h2>
      <span class="mw-headline" id="Manual_import_types">Manual import types</span>
    </h2>
    <p>
      There are currently two ways to do a manual import
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>
        Manually import the wiki through xowa_build.gfs.
      </li>
    </ul>
    <dl>
      <dd>
        This will offer you the greatest flexibility, but requires some familiarity with a command-line interface. You can read more at <a href="/wiki/Dev/Command-line" id="xolnki_3" title="Dev/Command-line">Dev/Command-line</a>
      </dd>
    </dl>
    <ul>
      <li>
        Manually import the wiki through altering the xowa_command
      </li>
    </ul>
    <dl>
      <dd>
        This has less flexibility than the xowa_build.gfs. However, it only requires editing a wiki page, and then clicking the icon
      </dd>
    </dl>

      <span class="mw-headline" id="Manual_import_using_the_xowa_command">Manual import using the xowa_command</span>
    </h2>
    <p>
      To do a manual import using the xowa_command, do the following
    </p>
    <ul>
      <li>
        Click "Edit" in the top right-hand corner
      </li>
      <li>
        Look at the last lines of this page
      </li>
      <li>
        Substitute 'simple.wikipedia.org' with your wiki's name
      </li>
      <li>
        Change the date from 'latest' to whatever date you're interested in (EX: '20121220')
      </li>
      <li>
        Change 'pages-articles' to 'pages-meta-current' if you want talk pages (Note: they are generally twice the size of the regular wiki)
      </li>
      <li>
        Save the page
      </li>
      <li>
        Click "Setup Custom Wiki"
      </li>
    </ul>
