about a month ago I posed here about building a Gemini interface to Wikipedia. after a month of bug fixes and new features (tables with row and column spans!) I announced it on my gemlog and Antenna. check it out

This is awesome. I don't know much about C# but i'm happy to help making it work with other languages. · 2 years ago

@mfoo2 open to suggestions. Genipedia is implemented as a CGI, not as its own capsule server or middle ware. so I don’t have direct control over the routes/URLs. If this was Apache I’d just use mod_rewrite. short of implementing my own capsule software like I did for the Kennedy search engine 🤷 · 2 years ago

might have been a bug. that url works for me:

Looks like often first, main link would not open for me. For example here I checked Ursule Le Guin. Can you see the first article? gemini://gemi.dev/cgi-bin/wp.cgi/search?Ursula%2BK.%2BLe%2BGuin · 2 years ago

This is amazing but I tried few searches and some articles won't load it seems? · 2 years ago

looks nice, well done. a minor suggestion would be to clean up and shorten the URLs. “cgi-bin/wp.cgi/” could be simplified to “articles/“ or similar · 2 years ago
