I am trying to use Wikipedia's MediaWiki parser to parse Wikipedia mark up text to HTML.
I went through the manual here - <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Parser.php>
However, since I am completely new to PHP, I am unable to write a test script,

Here is a sample input that I would want to parse and convert to HTML:

```none
Shakespeare's sonnets
==Characters==
When analysed as characters, the subjects of the sonnets are usually referred
to as the Fair Youth, the Rival Poet, and the Dark Lady. The speaker expresses
admiration for the Fair Youth's beauty, and later has an affair with the Dark
Lady. It is not known whether the poems and their characters are fiction or
autobiographical; scholars who find the sonnets to be autobiographical, notably
[[A. L. Rowse]], have attempted to identify the characters with historical
individuals.
