GooWi од Oliver

Wikipedia alongside Google Search.

GooWi adds a concise, contextually relevant Wikipedia companion beside Google Search results. It is designed to restore useful encyclopedic context without replacing Google or Wikipedia.

Features
- Relevant Wikipedia previews beside Google Search results
- Conservative relevance filtering that favors silence over misleading matches
- Wikipedia-assisted spelling correction for likely typos
- Wikipedia disambiguation pages for genuinely ambiguous searches
- Wikipedia hatnotes and clarification links
- Representative images selected through Wikipedia's PageImages API
- Random Article without changing the underlying Google query
- Expand/restore reading mode that leaves Google loaded underneath
- Wikirace with full supported article navigation, a 10-click initial challenge, and optional overtime
- Responsive desktop and half-screen layouts
- Light and dark appearance support

Wikipedia remains the destination

Normal GooWi mode deliberately presents a condensed preview. Readers who want the complete article are directed to Wikipedia. Wikirace is the exception because gameplay requires access to the full supported article.

Privacy

To provide its primary feature, GooWi sends the current Google search term directly to the relevant Wikipedia language edition so Wikipedia can return matching encyclopedia content. GooWi has no analytics, advertising, telemetry, user accounts, persistent identifiers, or developer-operated backend service. The developer does not receive or retain users' search terms through GooWi.

GooWi requires Firefox 140 or later and uses Firefox's built-in consent experience for the required transmission of search terms.
