Convert LaTeX to mediawiki syntax

Question

I need to convert LaTeX into mediawiki syntax. The formulas should stay the same, but I need to transform, for example \chapter{something} into = something =.

Although this can be obtained with a bit of sed, things get a little dirty with the itemize environment, so I was wondering if a better solution can be produced. Anything that can be useful for this task ?

Answer 1

I found this: plasTeX. With a bit of hacking probably I can produce a renderer for the mediawiki syntax

Answer 2

pandoc can get your file converted between several different mark-up languages pretty easily, including mediawiki

Answer 3

Pandoc should be able to do it:

$ pandoc -f latex -t mediawiki << END
> \documentclass{paper}
> \begin{document}
> \section{Heading}
> 
> Hello
> 
> \subsection{Sub-heading}
> 
> \textbf{World}!
> \end{document}
> END
== Heading ==

Hello

=== Sub-heading ===

'''World'''!
