Main Kiwix dev in charge of scrapers (tools to create ZIM files, even if we do not really scrape technically speaking) here.

We are working hard toward upgrading the Wikipedia ZIMs, but it is far from being an easy feat. I'm mostly solo on this, and far from dedicating 100% of my time to this, so it does not move very fast. We are quite close to being able to reach the goal however, probably only a matter of weeks now.

Bonus: the tool will now get pretty good at making a ZIM of any Mediawiki, not only Wikimedia ones, we expect for instance to work on all Fandom wikis somewhere this year since there is significant knowledge over there.

Hey, thank you for what you do! Kiwix was the first project that made me feel like using Github Sponsors to support it; your work is wrapped into countless other educational projects like IIAB.

Is there any specific help you need, or where could folks get involved if they wanted to?

Thank you for your answer and the hard work!
