This describes how to convert a dokuwiki installation to a mediawiki installation. All history, users and access control lists will not be taken over:

  • install mediawiki. In this example we assume you install to /srv/www/htdocs.
  • convert the syntax of every dokuwiki page to Mediawiki's syntax. MediaSyntax has a converter for this.
  • copy every file in dokuwiki's data/pages folder to mediawiki's maintenance folder
  • cd to the maintenance folder of your mediawiki, e.g.
cd /srv/www/htdocs/maintenance
  • import all text files:
for i in *.imp; do php importTextFile.php $i; done

Good and helpful article. But, it needs an update:
importTextFile.php has been removed in current versions of MediaWiki. Now, edit.php should be used instead...
