Wikiwand - Wikipedia Enhancer
« on: September 23, 2015, 06:00:27 pm »
   I recently stumbled across a Wikipedia enhancer, called Wikiwand, and I hope you guys enjoy it. It allows customization of fonts, size, width of text, and more. It changes the position of the contents section to the sidebar, rather than the usual, which gives a better feel for it and easier navigation. Here's a sample Wikiwand page compared to the same page on Wikipedia.

Links:

Official Website: https://www.wikiwand.com/
Chrome Extension Direct Link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wikiwand-wikipedia-modern/emffkefkbkpkgpdeeooapgaicgmcbolj?hl=en-US
Firefox Extension Direct Link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/wikiwand-wikipedia-modernized/
Safari Extension Direct Link: https://extensions.apple.com/details/?id=com.wikiwand.safari-LT6875SP46

Wikiwand


Normal Wikipedia


   Everyone is different in aesthetic taste, but it's pretty neat imo. The key downside to this is that it's for Chrome only (see website), but hopefully it can be released for other browsers too (Edit: The Firefox and Safari version are listed on the website, just not at the very top, where only the Chrome and iPhone version are). :).

https://www.wikiwand.com/

It's available for Chrome there (works flawlessly with Chromium).
//Damn, flowjob was faster than me. :D

I kind of like this. Only time will tell whether I'll keep using it or if I'll stick to Wikipedia's regular layout, but so far it's quite good. Depends on the article, though, the one you took a picture of looks horrible with Wikiwand imho. Most articles look good.



Thanks for sharing!

Silly me, thought I had put it before posting. Edited.
