The Random Wikipedia Article plugin fetches a random Wikipedia article and creates a neatly formatted note right inside your vault. It's designed to encourage curiosity, daily writing, and spontaneous learning by surfacing unexpected topics. You can set rules for what makes an article suitable, such as requiring a minimum number of headers or filtering out articles with certain headers. The plugin allows control over how many times it retries fetching, where new notes are saved, and whether they open automatically.

The Wikipedia plugin is a game-changer for Obsidian users who frequently find themselves looking up information on Wikipedia while taking notes. This plugin allows you to easily integrate Wikipedia content into your active note, streamlining your research process. With two simple commands, you can fetch the first section of Wikipedia based on your note's title or a custom search term. The plugin also comes with customizable settings, enabling you to tailor the output to suit your needs. Whether you're writing an article, creating a knowledge base, or simply want to quickly access relevant information, the Wikipedia plugin is an invaluable tool for Obsidian users.
