zoom images on hover (or add an option to enable/disable it).
it's a bite annoying to have to open the whole gallery each time to view or zoom one picture .
Wikipedia pictures consists mostly of illustrations which are dense and containing text , so zooming images is a frequent need thus should be simplified . thanks6 votes -
provide YouTube on-topic videos .
alongside entertainment, YouTube became also a rich source of education and science .
with the huge and divers amount of tutorials and explanation videos , it will so useful and enriching to include YouTube specific video suggestions to articles , and i think adding the possibility to up vote or down vote or suggest videos would improve the relevance over time.29 votesWe’ve started showing YouTube videos of trailers for films, and will add more videos in the future

Render math with MathJax
like the Chrome extension "Wikipedia with MathJax". It replaces the images with the LaTeX and lets the MathJax script render it. Way better typography with correct baselines and scaling so that it prints well too.

Allow dragging the thumbnail bar in the gallery view
It took me a while to figure out that the scroll wheel could be used. Click-dragging (and some smoothtly eased auto-scrolling if the mouse cursor approaches the edges) would be nice.

Improve the display/styling of certain elements
The blockquotes need more margins, and the list of singles (for music album-related pages) need a bigger line height.

Allow the wikiwand interface to load locally if the extension is installed
If the wikiwand interfacial elements were to be available locally, then the only thing you would have to fetch from the internet would be the wikipedia content. This would improve loading times as well as reduce traffic to your website every time an article is loaded. This can be bundled along with the extension, which would do more than redirection now.
I got the idea from the Mega (ala the Kim Dotcom service) extension and any typical android app, both of which generally have the interface available locally and only load content from out there.

Add a built in player for audio files (.mid, .ogg)
It's really annoying having to download these files just to play them. Also .ogg is not supported without additional downloads of codecs etc, so it's difficult for the average user to even listen to these files.
If you guys could fix that, it'd be a big reason for me to use your app over the original site. Thanks!

Improve keyboard accessibility
Keyboard accessibility, in terms of visible keyboard focus and the keyboard accessibility of the main menu, doesn't appear to be that good. You have some fantastic tools for changing the look of the content and for in page navigation but it is not possible for those who are unable or prefer not to use a mouse to access these features.

Scrolling left-sideTable of Contents is hard...
...and, depending on the # of TOC items in a Topic,
the scrolling of the TOC gets stuck-
ie: you can not scroll below the last, displayed TOC item,
although YOU KNOW there are more items below it!...Also, there is a very thin vertical scrollbar (inside the TOC).
Can you make that TOC scroll bar thicker?
(so it's easier to grab and manipulate with Mouse?).Thanks!

Any chance to make the Font & Bkg COLORS of left-side Table of Contents, have a +readable contrast? It's white on gray!
Any chance to make the Font & Bkg COLORS
of the *** left-side Table of Contents ***,
have a more readable contrast?
Font vs Background colors are
currently white on gray...Makes it hard for the User
to browse / read the TOC,
for other items of interest...
in the same page.Maybe allow the User to set the TOC colors?

Remove menu options when there is only 1 language available.
When there is only 1 language available,
When you mouse over the language circle icon, don't display 'Other Languages' because the language you are currently viewing the article in is already in the only language. What is happening is that I mouse over and see 'Other Languages' thinking there would be another language other than what I am already seeing. But there is not.
When you click the language circle icon, there is a field in the drop down that says '1 languages available'. This is ambiguous and misleading. The 1 language is the only languages so please take this…

Allow easy minor editing
Allow easy minor editing, such as typo fixing, easily, for example fixing typos by highlighting a word.

Share an article with shortened URL
Have a share button where a link (a shortened URL) would be generated. (Also social sharing would be good to have within the same feature.)
