I really like this tool. I won't use it myself, but I have thought of
another, more generically useful way of using it. Currently,
Wikipedia uses an ugly kludgey system of footnoting. Having a pop-up,
with a short delay, could well be the answer to these issues, as long
as it works in IE...
I don't know what other users think of this idea...

This is an advert for a new javascript tool which you

helpful. When you hover the mouse over wikilinks, a list of links pops
up. These link directly to pages relevant to the link, such as edit,
editTalk, contribs, count (a link to Kate's tool), image thumbnails
for image links and so on. I think it's quite nifty! There's a
description here:

Installation is a matter of adding a few lines to your monobook.js (or
standard.js - this is skin-agnostic).
Let me know what you think! It's still in development so I'd welcome
suggestions for improvements.

PS I don't know if it works in IE - it's been developed in firefox.
