+# NAME
+
+wikiget - download files from MediaWiki sites
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+| **wikiget** \[*options*] *FILE*
+| **wikiget** \[*options*] \[\-**a**|\-\-**batch**] *BATCHFILE*
+| **wikiget** \[\-**V**|\-\-**version**]
+| **wikiget** \[\-**h**|\-\-**help**]
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Something like **wget**(1) for downloading a file from MediaWiki sites (like Wikipedia or Wikimedia Commons) using only
+the file name or the URL of its description page.
+
+# OPTIONS
+
+*FILE*
+
+:   The file to be downloaded. If *FILE* is in the form *File:Example.jpg* or *Image:Example.jpg*, it will be fetched
+    from the default site, which is "commons.wikimedia.org". If it's the fully-qualified URL of a file description page,
+    like *https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Example.jpg*, the file is fetched from the site in the URL, in this case
+    "en.wikipedia.org".
+
+*BATCHFILE*
+
+:   In batch download mode (activated with \-**a** or \-\-**batch**), this is a text file containing multiple file names
+    or URLs to be downloaded, one per line. If an error is encountered during download, execution stops immediately and
+    the offending filename is printed.
+
+\-**s**, \-\-**site** *SITE*
+
+:   MediaWiki site to download from. Will not have any effect if the full URL is given in the *FILE* parameter.
+
+\-**P**, \-\-**path** *PATH*
+
+:   Script path for the wiki, where "index.php" and "api.php" live. On Wikimedia sites, it's "/w/", the default, but
+    other sites may use "/" or something else entirely.
+
+\-**u**, \-\-**username** *USERNAME*
+
+:   Username for private wikis that require a login even for read access.
+
+\-**p**, \-\-**password** *PASSWORD*
+
+:   Password for private wikis that require a login even for read access.
+
+\-**o**, \-\-**output** *OUTPUT*
+
+:   By default, the output filename is the same as the remote filename (without the File: or Image: prefix), but this
+    can be changed with this option.
+
+\-**l**, \-\-**logfile** *LOGFILE*
+
+:   Specify a logfile, which will contain detailed information about the download process. If the logfile already
+    exists, new log information is appended to it.
+
+\-**f**, \-\-**force**
+
+:   Force existing files to be overwritten.
+
+\-**a**, \-\-**batch**
+
+:   If this flag is set, **wikiget** will run in batch download mode (see *BATCHFILE*).
+
+\-**j**, \-\-**threads**
+
+:   Number of parallel downloads to attempt in batch mode. This option has no effect if \-**a** is not also set.
+
+\-**v**, \-\-**verbose**
+
+:   Print additional information, such as the site used and the full URL of the file. Additional invocations will
+    increase the level of detail.
+
+\-**q**, \-\-**quiet**
+
+:   Silence warnings and minimize printed output.
+
+\-**V**, \-\-**version**
+
+:   Print the version number of the program.
+
+\-**h**, \-\-**help**
+
+:   Print a brief summary of these options.
