Hello everyone,
I’m very excited to share a new tool created by the Community Tech team: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Who_Wrote_That%3FWho Wrote That[1], available as a https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/who-wrote-that-beta/ekkbnedhfelfaidbpaedaecjiokkionnChrome[2] and Firefox[3] browser extension. We developed this tool in response to the https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist_Survey_2017/Search/Blame_tool#4 wish[4] from the 2017 Community Wishlist Survey[5]. With Who Wrote That? (WWT), you can find authorship information directly on Wikipedia articles. When you hover over content, the tool highlights all content by the same author. When you click on content, the tool identifies the author of the revision, along with revision details.
We would love your feedback[6]! You can download the https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/who-wrote-that-beta/ekkbnedhfelfaidbpaedaecjiokkionnChrome[2] and Firefox[3] extension, and documentation on the tool is available on the MediaWiki WWT page[1]. The data and analysis in WWT come from the WhoColor API[7], developed by WikiWho[8], and the MediaWiki API.
We hope that you all enjoy using the tool!
Thank you,
Ilana Fried

Hello Ilana,
Tool looks wonderful. I also saw Turkish Wikipedia is included. It's greatly appreciated.
Thanks, ~Hakan

I've just tested it out for Chrome. The load time is slightly on the long side, but overall, this is an excellent tool that I think will be very helpful indeed. Really well done!

This is great. But it looks like it's only available on EN:WP?

As the extension provides just a way to display the data provided by the WikiWho service [1], which supports just five sites (enwiki, dewiki, euwiki, trwiki, eswiki), this extension supports only those sites as well. Pity.

Would also be nice if it worked on references, external links / urls, and policy pages. Not sure what would be required to add that capability?

WikiWho can do all of that, but it takes considerable effort to build its databases from the dumps.
It would be great if the Foundation could support more of the mediawiki-specific tools they build on top of. There is a lot of expertise in The WMF for building tools across all the languages, and an official Foundation app depending on a third-party tool which only supports five languages is going to get some pushback down the road. If the Foundation supported it, it would be less work to fold it in to a Mediawiki extension properly, so it doesn't require a browser-specific extension to run, too. It should really be part of the API.
