Description from extension meta

Fixes some annoying things about Wikipedia

Image from store Better Wikipedia
Description from store I developed it for myself, but what the heck, if someone wants to use this, let him benefit from it. Currently what it does is below, but I will add more in the future. (1) Toggle the (mostly useless) left panel (hides it by default). (2) Place commonly used language versions right at the top. (3) Toggle links/references. I often need to read other language versions of an entry, but those links were at the middle of the left panel, so I had scroll down the page. And the language entry order was sort of random, so I cannot easily find the language I want. I fixed my five favourite languages at the same location, so I can almost click one with a muscle memory, and with conspicuous flags. Greyed one means that that language edition is not available. I added link toggle to the version 1.1. I needed this when copying the text or reading the text using a TTS.

  • (2023-06-29) Cona (Cona 100): Promessing, still some work is needed. Was just looking for a way to only get results for the english site or quickly switch between different localizations/Implementations, as for me atleast other lang versions always get pushed to the top of the search results. This addon seemed pretty much perfect and it is ..with one catch. It works best (and also one of its features also only) for the german wikipedia site. Reason: Just some sloppy oversight when getting/adding parts from/to the Pages DOM it seems.. (Page Header is different and some element names differ depending on wikipedia Implementation/localizations). Should be faily easy to fix. ..else I'd definitly recommend. Cheers!
