exporting data from Wikibooks
collecting multiple pages for exporting using Special:Allpages
Open Special:Allpages and locate the text box labelled Display pages starting at:, and enter the post-endmost-slash path component of the relevant page, for example Git. For the drop-down list labelled Namespace:, select (Main). Press the Go button. This will produce a list of available pages with URLs starting with the post-endmost-slash path component. These pages are probably related, and can be copied into a separate document. The page's URL will be similar to https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Special:AllPages?from=Git&to=&namespace=0.
exporting one or more pages using Special:Export
The Special:Export page can be used to produce an XML file with MediaWiki-formatted text inside it. Open Special:Export and locate the text box labelled Add pages manually:. Enter any relevant pages' post-endmost-slash path components into the text box. Select the checkboxes labelled Include only the current revision, not the full history and Save as file, and press the Export button.
