*** Do not waste time opening multiple wiki windows and lose track of what you are reading.
*** Do more with Google Search, Book search and articles from New York Times.
This add on is a tool tip widget which lets users view full Wikipedia articles without navigating from the current wiki page.
*** Supports ALL languages in which Wikipedia pages are available
When Wiki Researcher add-on is enabled all internal wiki links on a wiki page are highlighted with a light red background color.
Placing the mouse on the highlighted wiki link for more than 3 seconds will open the tool tip with corresponding wiki article.
The reason for delay of 3 seconds is to avoid unintentional opening of tool tip while navigating or browsing on the page.
