Isn't our world amazing?! Here's something that amazes me... I think it's awesome that we are living on a world, our Earth, that is moving at high speed, thousands of miles per hour, circling a star we call "The Sun". And I'm even more astonished by the fact that our Sun is moving at a much higher speed as it circles the center of the Milky Way Galaxy! And it's taking us and all the other planets with it! Isn't the Cosmos amazing?!
I once came across one of the most important and profound "universal-oriented" pieces that I have ever read, and I want to share it with you! (click here) I feel that this page vividly reflects the intensely challenging task set before Wikipedia, as well as the daring determination and insight of the founders, administrators and all the editors of this growing global reference work. In just a brief, few words this page very skillfully cuts to the chase. Wikipedia's a brilliant and elegant effort to bring together a very complicated world.
Thank you very much for surfing here. I sincerely hope that your experience with by far the largest and greatest encyclopedia in the world, Wikipedia, is as good as it can possibly be!
When you activate this nifty wikitool, it empowers your mouse arrow.
When you hover the mouse arrow over a link, a preview of the article or image "pops up", so you don't actually have to go to that page to see it. If the article doesn't preview, you can activate it from the popups menu provided in the popup box (just hover the mouse over the word "popups" and then select "enable previews").
Another popup menu provided is "actions". When you select one, it applies that action to the page specified in the link you are hovering over. Actions include "edit", "diff my edit", "move page", what links here", and many more.
And you can get popups within your popups (by hovering over links in the preview)!
To activate Navigation Popups, click on the gadget tab of Preferences and check the Navigation popups box. In order to activate and use Navigation Popups, you must be logged on.
AutoWikiBrowser is a semi-automatic page loader and editor designed for working on large batches of Wikipedia pages. One of its tools, the database scanner, lets you do exhaustive searches of the encyclopedia's content. It can search article titles and article contents. The tool supports regex, so you have unlimited possibilities for search criteria.
It will find absolutely every occurrence of an entered search string, and return the names of all the articles that it comes across that contain it. Unfortunately, it only presents a maximum of 30,000 page names, at which point it will stop. So, the more specific the search criteria, the better.
