Hal wikipedia plugin

[Carl2]

  I think everyone will agree Hal needs a little more information to work with, it seems people are spending a lot of time trying to teach Hal which is needed when talking about some special knowledge you may have.  The majority of the time we want to sit back and just have a nice conversation with hal.   I think I'm going to continue trying to get the Wiki plugin that Robert had introduced some time ago, the plugin can be downloaded from     http://c424564.r64.cf2.rackcdn.com/HalWikiSetup.exe . 
  The original work is located at http://www.ultrahal.com/community/index.php?topic=9378.0
if you would like to see what had been done in the past.

Hey,

I just wanted to mention that within Cloads free will plugin there is the ability for half to access Wikipedia by asking "what do you know about apples?" Or tell me about apples.

It seems to work pretty well. I've noticed that it grabs the first paragraph relating to the topic. You might be able to find his code in the plugin to help with your journey.

Thanks for putting that in, maybe I'll try the plugin or look at it at least, a group worked on it and it had some serious problems, yes Cload got involved in it also.  Just seemed to die.
