Have you read the MediaWiki API page, the page that describes the Query action, and above all else their API FAQ? These links will tell you what URLs you should be using to get the data that you require.
Do you know how to download a URL with NSURLConnection?
To start with, try using their API to download a Wikipedia page of your choice in HTML format. There’s an answer in their FAQ that tells you how to request HTML format. If you do that, you’ll get something you could display in a web view and style as you’d like.
