en Worked quickly. Would love to have an option to view full reading list in browser as the wikipedia app doesn't allow easy copying of the reading list which is a shame for reading list analysis.

Good, but I also want to manage my list from my desktop computer's web browser and there's no UI for it in the extension. And also I'd like to choose a reading list while saving (since I may have many on mobile), and not everything saved to go to the default "Saved".

So basically I can save articles to the reading list BUT cannot read the items on the reading list (the most basic feature) and cannot delete articles from it. It's a joke, why can't Wikipedia just incorporate the reading list into their website?

As of 2022 this extension has now broken and Wikipedia hasn't bothered to update it. It's ridiculous that reading lists are only supported in the mobile apps and no where else.. But there is hope! It looks like someone built another extension using the same APIs that actually works. You can find it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/wikipedia-reading-lists/ledhaefolaamkihlcbjbongijbmmakip They have the same name so remove/disable this one first. Also I do wish the official Wikipedia one actually worked, since I trust it more...
