  44. Simple Wikipedia is a smaller wiki with 180,000+ pages and 90,000+ images. The text version can be setup in less than 5 minutes, using only 200 MB of disk space. The images version is a little larger: it needs 30 minutes of download time and 2 GB of space.

  49. <ul>
  50. <li>
  51. Launch XOWA
  52. </li>
  53. <li>
  54. Find the link for "Set up Simple Wikipedia" near the middle of the Main Page (<span class='url'>home/wiki/Main_Page</span>).
  55. </li>
  56. <li>
  57. Click on it. The import process will start and should complete within 5 minutes.
  58. </li>
  59. <li>
  60. Visit different pages in Simple Wikipedia. Note that XOWA is showing all the articles, but without any images.

  69. </li>
  70. <li>
  71. Unzip the files in your xowa root directory. When you are done, you will have a file called <span class='path'>D:\xowa\simple.wikipedia.org\simple.wikipedia.org-file.xowa</span> as well as many others.<sup id="cite_ref-simplewikis_0-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-simplewikis-0">[1]</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-simplewiki_version_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-simplewiki_version-1">[2]</a></sup>

  73. <li>
  74. Enter <span class='url'>simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_architecture</span> into the address bar. All images should load.

It will overwrite the copy you imported. This ensures that all the images should match up with the pages: i.e.: a later wiki (for example, 2017-01-02) may reference new images that were not present at the time of 2015-04-06. If you want a later version of Simple Wikipedia, simply reimport it again. Note the following about updating your wiki:</span>
  86. <ul>
  87. <li>
  88. <span class="reference-text">Images will still show if the page hasn't changed the image. For example, if you are viewing a page from 2017-01-02 but no new images have been added or modified, then the page will look the same.</span>
  89. </li>
  90. <li>
  91. <span class="reference-text">Images will not show, if the page has added new images or changed existing ones. For example, if the 2015-04-06 page had an Image called "Wiki_2015.png" but the 2017-01-02 version changed this to "Wiki_2017.png" then the "Wiki_2015.png" would not appear (since it wasn't known at the time of 2015-04-06)</span>
