Introduction
Mediawiki contents can be organised for offline reading, but this takes some work. The most practical solution is probably exporting and packaging to *.ZIM files and then using the Kiwix reader.
The ZIM format
Kiwix
Kiwix is the name of an offline reader that allows reading mediawiki contents on various devices that are offline. It also provides a local server solution.
Quote: "The Kiwix Reader allows you to access content packages in the ZIM format that are stored on your phone or computer. It is available for all major operating systems. It comes as a standalone application or as a browser plug-in. Simply choose below what suits you best."
Wikipedia and Gutenberg contents
A number of pre-packaged contents is available
