That would be ideal. I've been poking around already, but while the
API will output data in many formats, the actual content of the page
is always in Mediawiki markup, eg:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/query.php...epys&format=xml
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/query.php...epys&format=php

Some documentation here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/query.php

I hope I've missed something, because it would be much simpler if I
could get it all as HTML...
