Correct syntax highlighting for comments in code snippets
See an example page: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Yoda_conditions
The code snippet is as follows:
boolean myBoolean = true;
if (myBoolean = null) { /* ... */ }
// This causes a NullPointerException in Java Runtime, but legal in compilation.
The two "in"s in the comment are bolded on wikiwand, but not wikipedia. This is an error - comments should not be highlighted in the same way code is. See another example on the page with the string42in a comment getting highlighted as if it were an integer.6 votes -

Show coordinates of article
Wikiwand does not show GPS coordinates that a lot of articles about places or other locations have. On Wikipedia it is at the upper right corner.
It would be great, if you implement these coordinates, also with the link to the GeoHack website. It does not need to be at the top, it could be even at the bottom where the categories are or so, but I don't want to switch to Wikipedia for this.6 votes -
Moderate recommendations
I understand that your business models requires showing ads, and I've whitelisted the website for this very reason and to support a service which I love. But some content moderation would help, especially as some of us use wikiwand at work/ school. I've been getting recommended the same article about the clitoris (nothing to be ashamed of, obviously, but the photo is very much NSFW). I've cleared my cache and tried this on incognito and different devices, so I know this isn't targeted to me from my internet usage.

A very strange pictures and formulas display problem
It seemed that exactly half of the pictures on my Wikiwand pages were not displayable. This problem came up to me a few days ago and I thought it was just an internet issue. But when I was looking up some concepts on Wikiwand, this problem appeared again.
I tried to check if it was an internet problem, but as I switched to the normal Wikipedia page, all pictures were successfully displayed. The same happened to some math pages too. It's clearly not a browser or HTML problem since the first half of each page is perfectly fine.
I tried…

Fix language for norwegian
Language change no longer works for norwegian (bokmål).
No such article in Norwegian (Bokmål)
For example:
https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Bokmål has no connection to https://www.wikiwand.com/no/Bokmål while the site exists, and is correctly linked on wikipedia.The links to the other norwegian language is working correctly: https://www.wikiwand.com/nn/Bokmål
Theory:
Norway has two main languages on wikipedia, nb_NO and nn_NO. Wikipedia uses "no" as the language for the first one instead of "nb", when perhaps "nb" would be more correct.6 votes -
bug in the display of go board http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Go_%28game%29 and http://www.wikiwand.com/fr/Jeu_de_go
They use template such as Template:Goboard5x5 (english version) or Modèle:Goban (french version) which intend to display images side by sides and the result in your Wikiwand is images separated by gap

button for stopping animated images
Images are nicely placed in wikiwand.com but reading an article having an series of images that is changing with the time (a gif for example) it's hard to concentrate on the text. (have a look at: http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Wave_packet). What do you think of the idea to insert the possibily to stop the motion by a click on a special button within the image. Blocking the motion by default is not a good idea because sometimes it's enough to see the motion to understand the principles without reading the article

Show left summary on hover
Left summary sometimes can be pretty heavy at the left even if it's useful. Maybe we could have the option to show it only on hover like in windows 8. I suggest to have it transparent and it can also appear a bit like apple icons when we hover on every chapter. It could also appear without reducing the text but on it or maybe by reducing opacity of the part of the text behind.

Bookmark popup when you highlight text annoying.
The new bookmarks are a great idea but when highlighting text the little popup is quite annoying. It would be nice if there was a setting to turn it off.

Add search to Bookmarks
When you have more than 10 bookmarks on Wikiwand and the only way to find necessary one is scrolling, you get the expected problem. So, my suggestion is to add a simple search bar to the bookmarks, at least for bookmarks' names.

... to strengthen your support team
Seems something that the support is not as near to the user as he would like to have. Reading the problems about downloading extension for safari without team reaction. Trying to post a request using "Contact Support" gets stuck after pressing "next" in Safari.
Aren't that minimum operations that one can expect to work like a brake in a car? Isn't it?
Kind regards

Pseudocode formatting
pseudocode in a wikipedia page, like all text, gets moved around by images whose placement has changed and other "prettifying" that wikiwand does to wikipedia pages. This makes it harder to read in some cases. For example, at this page: http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Bellman%E2%80%93Ford_algorithm#Algorithm. As you can see, the shifting around of the pseudocode text is not desired. Maybe make pseudocode blocks special in that nothing gets put over them or causes them to look different than usual.
