Wikipedia:Offline Content Generator

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Offline content generator (OCG) was previously used to build books from collections of Wikipedia pages.

A group of pages could be selected to form a book in any of several formats, via the Book Creator which in turn used the OCG to convert the articles to the selected book format.

Withdrawal

[edit]

OCG became unmaintainable and Wikipedia stopped using OCG in 2017, as part of a general withdrawal from all Wikimedia Foundation sites.

Page PDF creation does not use OCG and has remained available.

Replacement

[edit]

The intention is to replace OCG with a new facility. The first two attempts at a replacement failed. As of May 2018, PediaPress have agreed to seek a solution.
