User reviews
Looking forward to see how this app develops. It would be very convenient to be able to config this app (down ещ css-style maybe). Like I would love to see an option for this app behavior: 1. On mouse move, 1-1.5sec delay for popup to go away. *It's for the second part* 2. If the mouse is over the popup window, popup doesn't go away, so user could operate with text (like translating it by using selection). *hope looping won't be a problem, actually don't how that works here*

Improves the readability of wiki pages.

Great app and does the job right, but it lacks a picture with the preview. Also it only works on wikipedia page not on other wikipedia links on other webpages i.g. Google
