      Hi, since recently, none of the add-ons for Wikipedia preview work. I have tried several of them: WikiPeek, WikiHover, Wikipedia Preview, Wikipedia Peek, Quick Wiki...

      I am talking about the preview popups on any wikipedia article, that apear when you hover mouse over the link.

      This is one of the very useful features, and without it, I can say that Opera has a big bug.

          Hi, I have just recovered Opera browser fully, returned to default.
          I have figured out that in recent versions, no such add-on is necessary anymore. Wikipedia pop-ups work as in any other browser, so I eliminated all of them, they don't have any purpose anymore. Maybe they have some advanced options, but at the moment I don't need them. I had a need to install them while ago, in the time when Opera didn't have this feature built-in.
