Summary

A webextensions add-on to allow right-clicking on a Mediawiki-style link (as used at Wikipedia) to be able to go directly to its edit page (within the same window or a new tab).

By default looks for the pattern /wiki/title or title=(title) within links to change them into: ?action=edit&title=(title) links. Only shows the context menu if those type URLs are found

You can set your own wildcards, and find-replace patterns if different wikis follow different URL patterns.

Also provides two "Open ISBN at Amazon" options (leading to the same window or current tab), usable when right-clicking on a link containing Special:BookSources (the format for links leading to ISBN numbers at Mediawiki sites).
