Wikinfo
Wikinfo is an elisp library for scraping Wikipedia infoboxes.
Functions
- wikinfo (&optional search filter)
-
Return infobox plist for SEARCH.
FILTER is an optional unary function which takes a list of search results as its argument.
It must return a single result to use.
If either argument is nil, the user is interactively prompted.
For example:
(wikinfo "Emacs" #'car)
searches the Wikipedia API for pages with infoboxes that contain the term “Emacs”. The filter will return the first result, similar to Google’s “I’m feeling lucky” search feature. The result is a plist (note: Formatting applied to extract to reduce page width):

"Emacs or EMACS (Editor MACroS) is a family of text editors that
are characterized by their extensibility. The manual for the most
widely used variant, GNU Emacs, describes it as \"the extensible,
customizable, self-documenting, real-time display editor\".
Development of the first Emacs began in the mid-1970s, and work on
its direct descendant, GNU Emacs, continues actively as of 2020."
