This chrome extension allows you to export wikipedia elements as text. Current formats:
- Markdown
- HTML
Currently Supported Elements:
- Infoboxes
- Tables
- Figures
Limitations:
- Tables with subcolumns/subrows aren't supported by markdown tables, so aren't supported for markdown export
- Figures with multiple images are classified differently so aren't currently supported
- Complex layouts inside of the infobox such as collapsable tables have issues
- Slim Inline Styles can be broken by external CSS
Feel free to suggest additional features/elements to support via Github Issues.
Once installed, a tools button will appear in the bottom right on any wikipedia page. This will allow you to change settings or export an element. Once you've clicked a format, simply select the element on the page you wish to copy.
- Clone or download and unzip this repository.
Make sure you save it to somewhere save - the browser won't copy the extension so if the folder is deleted, the extension will break or disappear.
- Go to
chrome://extensions(in the address bar) - Enable Developer Mode.
- Click 'Load Unpacked'
- Select the cloned/unzipped extension folder.
Please feel free to donate if you found this extension useful.
