word to wikitext number list is not converted correctly.

[liao24hoho]

When using pandoc to convert from word(docx) to wikitext,
the end result wikitext does not have the big numbered list.
looks like the resultant wikitext treat the list items as separate items.

I tried two versions of Pandoc:

1. pandoc-2.0.4-windows
2. pandoc-2.5-windows-x86_64.msi

What is the exact command used? What do you mean with wikitext?

[liao24hoho]

The command used:
pandoc.exe --from=docx --to=mediawiki 2>&1
by wikitext I mean mediawiki wikitext

[liao24hoho]

You can see from the uploaded image that the header “Content Migration" has number 1 but in the original document it has number 2.

It's an issue with the docx reader, not the mediawiki writer.
The bullet lists are all being parsed with default start number 1.
@jkr can you see what is going on here?

These are separate items, so it's an issue with the start num. There seems to be a w:startOverride entry which we hadn't read:

  <w:num w:numId="2">
    <w:abstractNumId w:val="5"/>
    <w:lvlOverride w:ilvl="0">
      <w:startOverride w:val="2"/>
    </w:lvlOverride>

So I have to implement a lvlOverride and startOverrride. Semester just ended, so I'll get on it right now.

Ok -- I have a fix. @liao24hoho, would it be okay if I used a (simplified) copy of your file as a test case? I don't know how to reproduce this behavior from scratch. I'll push it as soon as a I hear back.

@jkr feel free to use it.
