Works perfect. Thank you!

With this extension installed, I can't access the main Wikipedia site through the URL bar in Chrome. The site attempts to reload itself over and over. I can access it via links without issues.

Seriously, F you wikipedia, forcing me to create an account to change the layout. Just let me set a cookie so I don't need to install yet another browser extension just to surf the web painlessly. YT itself requires 6 extensions to be usable for me.

I second what Elisabeth Rowe has written. All the hyperlinks on pages have "?useskin=vector" at the end, hence no tooltip preview appears. Please, see how it's done in the Old Wiki extension, it doesn't have the same problem: https://github.com/adlerzei/old-wiki

It works, but it doesn't show the previews when you hover over the hyperlinks.

This extension helps a lot, the new layout really sucks and it's baffling that they use THAT as the default layout, does what it says on the title, awesome.

The new Wikipedia UI sucks real bad. After installing this extension Wikipedia is usable again. Excellent.

Thank you for your efforts. Cannot stress how poorly the new wikipedia was implemented with the ridiculous use of wasted whitespace

Thank you for restoring some measure of sanity to an increasingly insane world.

Minor request: I'm wondering if it would be possible to add an option to somehow exclude bookmarked pages from the extension's URL modification? That way I could click on a bookmark and it would bring me to the default/unmodified URL (it used to do this prior to 1/23, before you updated it).
I have a number of Wikipedia pages bookmarked, and now that the URL has been modified, clicking on a bookmark automatically redirects me to the useskin=vector version of the page. I haven't lost any bookmarks or anything, but the bookmark star isn't blue anymore for those select pages and it's a slight annoyance in regards to keeping track of articles I previously saved.
