Problem solved:

With this tool decreased the effort and time of editing the text content in wikipedia page.

Project description

This is browser extension/add-on that can be added in any browsers. After user successfully logged, User can edit a text in wikipedia page just by selecting the text and giving correct text at popup in same page. Also user can enable or disable the edit mode

How this project works

This project working by calling the documented apis for editing the content in wiki, given in wikimedia page. With the csrf_token was used to identify the user and edit

Initial stage

We are started this project from scratch

Current stage

Created browser extension with login page and functionality to edit the content in wiki Due to CORS issue from the apis of wiki unable to get login and get csrf_token in this moment

Working things
