Description

Wikipedia gets a beautiful, clean, modern interface.

Enhance your Wikipedia experience with a beautiful, clean, modern design that's fully customizable.

Once installed, Modern will simply apply the new look and features to existing Wikipedia article pages, without you having to do anything.

All current features on Wikipedia are supported, this extension simply builds upon the existing interface to offer many improvements, including:

✔ Themes (light, dark, sepia, slate, black)
✔ Fonts (sans, serif, change font size)
✔ Styles (column width, line height)
✔ Languages (menu to switch, fully translated interface)
✔ User accounts (all wikipedia account features accessible from menu)
✔ History (quickly jump to articles you've previously viewed)
✔ Search (powerful autocomplete with preview text & images)
✔ Trending (see today's most read articles)
✔ Contents (fixed to left side for easy navigation, can be hidden)
✔ Editing (full editing controls, history, watch etc)
✔ Switch back to the old design (if needed) with one click
✔ More improvements planned for upcoming releases!

If you have any questions, need help or have any suggestions, please get in touch: [email protected]

Note: If you're logged into Wikipedia, you must use the default skin for the extension to work.
