One of Dan's next steps is coordinating with a few language wikis for a ~month long public rollout test period, similar to the way mediaviewer did. I agree with you Erik, that there should be a way to disable for readers, the team is thinking about possible alternatives currently. As well as making sure that logged in users have full control over using hovercards, navigation popups, or turning off link previews all together.
Jan, we can possibly plan on including sverige wiki in the pilot program if that works for Dan and the community there, however the beta feature is really more geared toward content wikis (wikipedia, wiktionary) rather than other wiki types.

Jared,
Does it really matter that they are not a content wiki? Seems great that we have an offer for some place out of the box, especially if the wiki 1) wants the involvement, and 2) can see value in a tool that you may not considered from the PoV of a chapter's use.
I would like to congratulate on one of the chapters for putting-up their (collective) hand to be involved in having that switch flicked.
Regards, Billinghurst

If the Swedish chapter would like Hovercards turned on on their wiki then I thank them for putting their hands up and would be happy to make that happen.
That said, there is a disclaimer. Hovercards is a side project for almost all of us that are involved in it. This means that we have very limited time to try to fix bugs, so we have a responsibility to focus that time on the intended users of the feature (content wikis). We can't promise to spend time developing the feature so that it's suitable on wikis outside our intended focus, like chapter wikis. We'll try to fit it in, but we can't promise.
If that sounds okay, I'll file a bug to get it deployed.
Thanks everyone!
