Wikipedia First Firefox

Wikipedia First

By: mazza
Reorders Google and DuckDuckGo search results so Wikipedia is on top.

Features & Capabilities

Places the Wikipedia link at the top of the search results of Google and DuckDuckGo, if its available on the first page.

Enshittification: The decay of a digital platform, coined by Cory Doctorow https://www.wired.com/story/tiktok-platforms-cory-doctorow/

> Even with that foundational understanding of enshittification, Google has been unable to resist its siren song. Today's Google results are an increasingly useless morass of self-preferencing links to its own products, ads for products that aren't good enough to float to the top of the list on its own, and parasitic SEO junk piggybacking on the former.

User Reviews

Somehow this has become one of my favorite extensions
by Wi*****, 2026-05-15

Doesn't seem to actually work
by As*****, 2025-12-19

The idea behind this extension is absolutely brilliant. When I search for something on Google, 90% of the time it's a Wikipedia page on a specific topic. That's why I use this extension every day. Until now, this extension has worked wonderfully, but now it sometimes fails. I think Wikipedia First needs an update.

Is Wikipedia First Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Wikipedia First requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Request access to the following domains: google.com, duckduckgo.com
  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Wikipedia First has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
