Wikipedia LaTeX example #Description Wikipedia-LaTeX is a userscript that allows you to easily copy formulas from wikipedia. Next to each formula, the script adds a little + icon. Clicking it reveals the LaTeX source behind the formula. No more switching to the "Edit from source" tab just to figure out what symbol was used!

Usage

Just add the file linked above to your favorite userscript manager, for example Greasemonkey for Firefox, or Tampermonkey for Chrome and Safari!

Why?

I ran into a lot of formulas when studying for my upcoming exams, and I usually write my summaries in LaTeX, I thought there should be an easier way to access the formulas published on Wikipedia.

How?

As it turns out, Wikipedia already delivers the plain text LaTeX version of the formulas alongside the rendered PNGs. All I do is extract them, and attach them to the little plus next to each formula.
