Project idea

edit

What is the problem you're trying to solve?

edit

Reading Wikipedia always takes a lot of time to go back and forth in the internal link pages, it's time consuming and easily lost focus - as outlined here: http://blog.assaflavie.com/wikipedia/


What is your solution?

edit

Some JavaScript code for inline definitions of terms to appear, like this blog post indicates.

Project goals

edit

Open questions

edit

There is a hover card solution, but that isn't working on mobiles. Could we perhaps have a double-tap to open the same card inline? Should be pretty simple. — Jeblad 14:36, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
