jQuery Plugin For Getting Wikipedia Description In Tooltips - wikiUp

wikiUp is a jQuery plugin which can be used to display Wikipedia descriptions in tooltips.

How to use it:

1. Include jQuery library, wikiUp.js and wikiUp.css on the webpage.

<link href="wikiUp.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js" 
        integrity="sha384-nvAa0+6Qg9clwYCGGPpDQLVpLNn0fRaROjHqs13t4Ggj3Ez50XnGQqc/r8MhnRDZ" 
        crossorigin="anonymous">
</script>
<script src="wikiUp.js"></script>

2. Attach the Wikipedia description to terms using the data-wiki attribute.

<data data-wiki="Apple Inc.">Apple</data> 
  was founded by 
<data data-wiki="Steve Jobs">Steve Jobs</data>.

3. If you want to get data in a different language, use the data-lang attribute:

<data data-wiki="Madrid"

      Madrid
</data> 
es la capital de España.
