Bookmarklet idea: find Wikipedia entry for currently selected text, then (when editing in WordPress) make the selected text link to it

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/11/05

Two stage bookmarklet idea (so if will be easier to create this in an agile fashion):

  1. create a bookmarklet that looks up the currently selected text in Wikipedia (or another source)
  2. modify the current selection to link to that Wikipedia entry (convenient when editing blog posts)

Hopefully these links will help me getting started:
