How to save list from Wikipedia category to file?

Question

big data

There is a specific task. It is necessary to save the list of English surnames from Wikipedia into a text file. Only surnames are needed without links to articles. List at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Surnames .
Lists on Wikipedia are generated automatically from links to articles, so when you enter the article editing mode, the list cannot be copied. The list is very large - 47,617 surnames, while only 200 surnames can be displayed on one Wikipedia page. Hands copy-paste, obviously, for a long time.
Is there any relatively easy way to save such lists? Utilities, tricks, terminal commands - I will be glad for any answer on the topic.

Answer 1

There is a dbpedia.org resource that parses information from Wikipedia and presents it in terms of Semantic Web technologies. So the most correct way out is to write a query in the SPARQL language. But I don't even remember its syntax anymore. However, here is the dbpedia page for the mentioned category: dbpedia.org/describe/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdbpedia.org...
If this is it. You can search other categories. At the bottom of the page there is an inscription "Raw data" and a link to download CSV. There are a lot of names there.
You will need to select the correct category, perhaps tweak something, and get the result. Or - get to know SPARQL.

Answer 2

This can be done using the AutoWikiBrowser program. This program can generate a list from a category and save it to a file.
See https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser (they write about registration, but you only need it for editing, you can use it without registration to create lists)
