View source for Offline Museum Kiosk With MediaWiki and Raspberry Pi

{{Project
|shortDescription=MediaWiki kiosk running on a Raspberry Pi 4B
|longDescription=We set up and did the initial data import and collection creation for a MediaWiki-based standalone (offline) kiosk for the Charleswood Historical Society. They wanted a small, reliable, and performant kiosk that was not prohibitively expensive and had capacity to add more information (including the potential for audio and video) in the future.
|geekery=The kiosk is built around a Raspberry Pi 4B (8GB) running the 64-bit version of Raspberry Pi OS (Bookworm).

Storage is a 500GB Samsung EVO 870 SSD, connected via StarTech USB312SAT3CB USB-SATA adapter.

Since there is no network connection, we installed a DS3231 RTC to keep track of time.

We designed and made a custom enclosure for this project with 3D-printed PETG end caps and cutout cover panel, and laser-cut birch plywood panels.

Initial wiki setup, collaboration, and training was done with a web hosted wiki. Once the wiki was populated and looked as desired, it was backed up from the web host and restored to the offline Pi wiki.
