Description Prateek Saxena 2014-05-10 08:33:15 UTC
(Quoting Pyb from https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Beta_Features/Hovercards&workflow=ru7lut84ni79e2oe)

On Wikimedia Commons, Hovercards displays an extract of a Commons page. And doesn't work on [[:en:toto]], [[:fr:toto]]...

It would be interesting to display an extract of a wikipedia page.
Comment 1 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2014-05-10 08:36:21 UTC
This would be a super super cool feature.

Main technical issue I see is would be mapping the interwiki prefix to the API url. Especially since we can nest prefixes ([[d:n:b:w:User:Legoktm]] is a valid link). 

After that, we just use JSONP to grab the extract/pageimage from the other wiki!
