On this day info from wikipedia

[jegerikke]

Hi

i have been trying to find a way to get simple random info form “on this day” from wikipedia, but with no luck.
I’m looking for something like the rss feed on MM or a module that can pull random info from the page. in my case i need it in Norwegian.

some one that have ideas or a module/system that can do this.
i am no coder so i need some help for this.

Norwegian:
https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Dagen_i_dag

English:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:On_this_day/Today

Like this? Today in History
Or this? on this day

[jegerikke]

Yes

looking for something like the boxes (events, births, deaths) on today in history.
but i am completely new on coding and mm.

any chance you know how to add the norwegian version of wikipedia and how to install it to MM?

Oh, and there is @cowboysdude’s MMM-History module.

“Today in History” links to the parser that gets the info from Wiki, I’m sure it could parse the Norwegian Wikipedia. I may look into it as I’m also interested in a non-english version of this.

@jegerikke have you checked for a Norwegian rss feed?
