Abstract
The main aim of this article is about building a semantic search engine for Mediawiki software. First, a collection of documents is grabbed from websites identified by users as free source. Based on a dictionary and a set of semantic rules, all documents are categorized into specific groups like: History, Geography, Travel... and their titles, relationships are also created. After that, everything will be converted into Mediawiki database format. Finally, users can edit all articles in the same way as other MediaWiki projects like: Wikipedia, Wikibooks...
