Mediawiki Cite Web Markup Wizard: Ready-made Wikipedia Citations

Mediawiki Cite Web Markup Wizard is a free Chrome extension developed by Vayehee. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This extension is specifically designed for Wikipedia and Mediawiki page editors.

With Mediawiki Cite Web Markup Wizard, you can easily obtain ready-made Wikipedia-ready citation markup for highlighted text on any website. When you highlight a segment of text, the extension generates a full "Cite Web" style markup. This markup includes the title of the cited page, the link to the highlighted text, and the extraction of the root domain from the link as the source. The generated markup is properly wrapped within tags and follows the format:

{{highlighted_text}} ["{{link_to_page}}#:~:text={{highlighted_text}} {{title_of_page_cited}}", {{root_url_from_link}}]

The generated markup is automatically copied to your clipboard, making it convenient to paste it in the right place on the Wikipedia or Mediawiki page you're editing. This extension is a fork of Google's "Link to Text Fragment" with additional code to extract the cited page title from the DOM, extract the root domain of the sourced website, and wrap everything in markup language.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
