I think you have the wrong url for the English version; it should be download (torrent).

Is there a smaller version with core info?

Simple English wiki is small and useful, but it's way too small compared to English. It would be nice to have something in the middle, but it looks like the only reliable way to do it is to have humans review and select the articles - I know http://pediapress.com and http://schools-wikipedia.org do that.

what might be nice would be to put the top articles in one fille, and then create extra files, that add in the less common articles.
maybe we can get the info from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:ST
