Anki 2.1 addon to display Wikipedia page previews inside of Anki.
Shows a popup of the Mobile Wikipedia page / Extract for the selected text. In order to avoid conflicts with the Popup Dictionary addon, this addon only supports keyboard shortcuts (Control-Shift-W) for now. Currently it still clashes with Popup Dictionary, this will be fixed soon!
Modes: Mobile (default)
Extract (shorter, faster to load)
Features
- Popup of either full mobile pages, or shorter extracts
- page caching to speed up repeated searches
- Multilanguage support - change the language in config.json with the language as per list here.
This is currently in beta stage - things will almost certainly break! Please submit a bug report if it does.
Installation
The easiest way to install Pop-up Dictionary is through AnkiWeb.

Known issues
- Clicking on links inside the popup opens the browser, but with the wrong URL
- Disambiguation pages are not handled well
- Does not work with NightMode due to the way Night-Mode monkeypatches Reviewer.revHtml, see this github issue here
- Currently does not play nicely with Popup Dictionary. Currently trying to figure this out!

Sometimes it bugs out onto the side of the screen. A quick restart solves this problem. Other than that, extremely useful.

Thanks! This seems like a useful add-on. I’m confused about one thing, though. How do I make it display the shorter extract?

Logged in to leave a feedback. Great stuff man, you rock
By the way, what determines that the window automatically closes? Sometimes I’m trying to copy a text from the popup and it disappears
