Wiktionaries are multiple (3-5) files to download from wikimedia. So for 1 wiktionary I can make 3-5 different wikipedias. My maximum download of 15 is usually used up with wikipedias. It is unfortunately not enough to update all the languages. That's why I changed to update wikipedias on request only.

However, if you would provide the needed tar.gz files, I would be happy to compile the wiktionary.

Have fun

Thanks for the response.

How / from where do I download the wiktionary tar.gz file? Once I get
that, if there is a script or program to convert that to slob format,
I can do that even.

Look forward to some help in that regard.

Here you find the software to compile the slob files: https://github.com/itkach/aard2-android

Here you find the free API for 15 downloads per month:

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you
