Utilities to improve the user experience of Wikipedia.org for avid users.
Wikipedia Plus supplements Wikipedia.org's existing web interface with some convenient behaviors I always wanted myself.
Unlike other extensions which aggressively modify or interfere with the Wikipedia website look and feel, this extension respects the original Wikipedia design and makes minimal changes. I believe that the most empowering tools are invisible.
Features:
* show short text snippets for Wikipedia's internal entries when hover
* turn section titles into in-page links for easier bookmarking and sharing particular sections
* enlarge images when hover
* zoom level is adjustable
* adjusted enlarged image placement for right-to-left language pages
