What is Remove Wikipedia Citations?

Remove Wikipedia Citations is a Chrome extension that removes citations from Wikipedia articles, making reading and copying of content easier. Citations are typically located in the 'References' section at the bottom of the page and can sometimes be bothersome for users who want to copy/paste information without including the citations.

Citations are used to link parts of the article to sources, situated in the "References" section, at the bottom of the page. Citations contribute to legitimation of presented data, but they can be annoying when the use of copy/paste is required.

User reviews

Of the few extensions I tried (Remove Citations, Smart Wikipedia Citation Remover), only this one works as of today, but it lacks an option to temporarily disable it, unlike the other 2 addons. Hope the developer would add this feature. Edit: The extension "Wikipedia NoRefs" has the toggle that I want.
