Thanks for the fast response - it looks like I will need to do a fair bit of editing of the files downloaded by wget. Although wget downloaded three "load.php" files, Chrome Developer Tools/Network showed additional load.php calls that appear to be invoked from the output of the two load.php calls in Main_Page. Because these calls were invoked by a script, they were not captured by wget. I will attempt to download them individually and add script calls to the output in Main_Page and the other article pages. I started a thread on converting Mediawiki sites to static HTML and will post my experiences there.
