Wow! I read about this in a kindle book! Its amazing! Much easier then printing all the wiki pages to a pdf and then converting them! Thanks!

Dave, thanks for the input. Try building your book at http://www.eReadUps.com, which is our currently supported site for building books. I do want to fix Kindlepedia’s issues, like the one you mention, but I can’t promise a timeline for that. I am sending you the eReadUps version for your reference. This service is free for building books like Kindlepedia.

The results look good on my Kindle, but it appears to have stripped out all of the section headings. For example, in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tardis, the title of the page (“TARDIS”) is in the mobi document, but not any of the boldface section headings (“Conceptual history,” “General characteristics,” etc.) in the rest of the article.

Thanks it is a great script. The picture however does not seem to make it correctly. I saw the same problem with http://dash-of-pepper.com/wikitype/.
The URL I used to test conversion was
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_game

First when i found this i was really happy, as i read wikipedia a lot and now i could do that on my kindle.

But when ever i try to convert any article it never works. Download button does come but when i click on it, page not found (404 error) comes up.

Please fix this soon.
regards
