Italian Wikipedia dictionary isn't displayed correctly #65
Comments
I see what you mean, but the defect is not in the program: article formatting is just broken in these articles. It may be possible to remove or replace broken HTML during dictionary compilation though. |
So, if the defect is in the dictionary, can you contact who compiled it, in order to rebuild it removing these bad codes? |
Can I contact me? I suppose I can :) The only difficulty is that chasing down every bad article and setting up content filters to remove or fix all the broken markup is extremely time consuming and tedious, so I physically can't fix everything for all wikipedias. I accept patches though :) Users can help by setting up aardtools, learning about content filters and sending me improved content filter files. |
Well, I would like to help you, but I can't, 'cause I tried to compile one it.wiki dump with my poor 32-bit dual core notebook some time ago, but I remember it took too long to do so. What kind of computer do you use (I mean, how many cores I need to compile a dictionary in 1 day)? |
I'm using 4 core 2.66GHz i7, but there's no need to compile whole wiki. One can compile a big enough sample using |
I know I can compile a sample from the whole wiki dump, but if I want to extract all the articles from it.wiki (1,000,000+) how much time do we need with a machine like yours? A day? 2 days? A week? Thanks. |
I don't remember exactly, I think it was something around 11-12 hours. Whole enwiki takes 2.5 days (and ~24hours if we exclude reference lists and infobox templates) |
OK, thank you so much for the answers. I close this issue, 'cause at the end it's just a problem of bad markup to be fixed with a specific configuration before starting to compile, so after a couple of tests it's possible to find the right one. |
Hi, I use sometimes Aard Dictionary to read Italian Wikipedia offline. After I had downloaded from http://aarddict.org/d/itwiki/ the latest version of the it.wiki dictionary (2013-02-22) a few days ago, I noticed that some articles (such as "Italia" or "Roma") are badly displayed on the Android app: they look like the text is heavily shifted on the left (above all if you try to zoom in) and it's impossible to read them, 'cause they can't be slided on the right or zoomed out in order to be readable on the screen device. I've tested this dictionary either on Samsung Galaxy GT-S5570 or on Samsung Galaxy S III, but the problem is the same in both cases. Can you fix it, please? Thanks.
