Does Wikimedia supports other formats for storing data rather than wiki text?

Question

I have some XML files that I need to store in Wikimedia.

The obvious alternative will be to parse the content, format it with WikiText markup and store it.

I would like to know if Wikimedia supports natively (or through plugins) other formats to store data?

And / or if this can be easily implemented?

Answer 1

You can upload them as files, or as a custom content type (example of such an extension), or store it as structured data with something like Semantic MediaWiki or Cargo.
