We had a flatfile Google sitemap up until the last upgrade of [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]] and apparently it did not survive the upgrade :-)  I just implemented the automatic xml version suggested above and it seems to work great!  We will need to keep an eye on it because 1) it is not qualified for mediawiki 1.6.5 and 2) it takes a bit of time to generate the output (it found 7804 wiki pages on the trial run).  You can see the output yourself at [http://wikiindex.com/sitemap.xml.php http://wikiindex.com/sitemap.xml.php] be patient because it takes several seconds to generate the output.  [[User:John Stanton|John]] 12:13, 28 August 2006 (EDT)

:Hi John, you may want to alter the SQL Statement by limiting the number of pages fetched (SELECT TOP 200 ... or the likes).  That way only the last X edits will show up.  Google will fetch the sitemap every 12 hours or so, therefore it'll only get the latest batch of updated pages.  Of course find some values that'll work for this site.  I don't know how many edits per day you're having here.  Cheers Caspar/[http://www.thinklemon.com/ ThinkLemon].  (Oh and if the MediaWiki database schema did not change from 1.5 to 1.6 it should work fine.  Haven't tried it myself though. ;-))
