Wikipedia Beautifier

Wikipedia doesn't have to be an eyesore.

Inspired by Readability, I wanted something to make Wikipedia similarly beautiful in Chrome. Here's the before and after for today's featured article:

Wikipedia Beautifier:

  • Swaps out the content fonts to nice, big, serif fonts
  • Fades out the navigation bars to the top and left when not in use
  • Justifies text and adds automatic hyphenation
  • Makes a handful of margin adjustments to make things line up in more presentable ways

After, larger.

Note: All navigation elements fade back in on mouse-over.
