Surf Wikipedia on a specific date in the past!

When surfing Wikipedia, sometimes I want to see how articles looked like on a specific date in the past. With Wayback Wiki you can choose a specific date, and every Wikipedia article you visit will automatically redirect you to the version of the article that existed on that date.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Wayback Wiki requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that an Edge add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Edge add-on reputation on Edge Add-on Store, the amount of time the Edge add-on has been around, and other signals about the Edge add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.

Wayback Wiki is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
