Has anybody ever tried to download all of the MIT OpenCourseWare?

Kiwix is hiring a python dev to help build new scrapers
As for scrapers of interest, well there's always some maintenance needed on the existing ones if you need a warmup of sorts, and I wouldn't mind it if mwoffliner was also able to pick up on wikia/fandom websites. Other than that on our current wishlist there's also code.org, or even manuallibs.com if you are really bad at design (as the ticket explains we might want the content but not the website design).

Is there a Kiwix Translation file?
Not that I know, but you can ask for confirmation on r/kiwix or if you have a specific website in mind then file a request on the zim-requests github repository.

Other knowledge bases, libraries, encyclopedias besides Wikipedia because of censorship?
The help we need there is to have someone scout around the internets, list resources that are up for the taking (usually Creative Commons-licensed, in one flavour or another) and open a zim-request on github.
