What about DBPedia http://dbpedia.org/page/The_Shining_(film) http://dbpedia.org/page/The_Shining_(film) ? That's available as JSON, and much larger community/

  There's a much larger community/effort behind DBPedia than Wikipedia? Or are you comparing DBPedia to this utility that converts Wikipedia data dumps? Edit: looks like I need to do some more research into DBPedia. It sounds like that community has created a dataset that categorizes Wikipedia article (e.g. "things" and "facts")

  Correct me if I am wrong, but I do not think that DBPedia includes the full Wikipedia articles (only extended abstracts). So I believe that json dumps of DBPedia and Wikipedia dumps produced using this tool are two different things.

  In my understanding, DBpedia is a project for extracting data mainly from Wikipedia infoboxes (not whole data dumps) by collaboratively creating rules for converting data into cleaner schema that enables to perform a query such as SPARQL. I think this is a project that directly converts wikipedia dump xml to JSON for easier manipulation, which differs from DBpedia.

  Hi, I'm the author of Json-Wikipedia. It's different from DB-Pedia. DBPedia converts the semistructured data containined in the infoboxes in rdf triples, while Json-Wikipedia converts ALL the content of the page (text, infoboxes, links) into a JSON object. I did this because I need some features that were not available on dbpedia (e.g., the whole text of an article, all the anchors referring to an article etc etc). Also Json-Wikipedia simplifies the processing of a Wikipedia Dump on Hadoop.
