Contexto
‘It’s impossible to understand the nuances of the world without some contextual clues’ -Contexto.
Contexto is a TinyMCE plugin that works with Wikidata and TextRazor APIs.
It adds images, description and links to help you to enrich your content. While creating or editing a post or page, select the words that you want to give some ‘context’, click the button and Contexto will find and add the extra information for you.
Visitors will hover with their mouse to those words you selected in the text, and they will see the descriptions, images and Wikidata links, that would enrich your content.
Contexto would give your users extra information to understand your content, without leaving your page to find the meaning of those words.
Currently Wikidata has 46,091,721 items. Contexto can find people, places, brands, and anything that Wikidata has registered. If you cannnot find an item, just register to Wikidata and contribute to the best database in the world.
You MUST register to TextRazor to make this plugin works. It is free to register and includes 500 requests per day.
You do not need to register to Wikidata. However, feel free to register and contribute to the project.
