AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Wikiembedder is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 2 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Wikiembedder works
The project is inspired by RDP Wiki-Press Embed by Robert D Payne. Some code is also copied (noted in source).
The difference is that this is simpler. It contains as little CSS as possible to be able to customize it for each theme.
Links are rewritten to make the users able to navigate in the wiki without leaving your wordpress page.
The text on the wiki image page will be added as a title=”” tag to the image in wordpress, so by using the plugin simple-lightbox, the text will be shown below the image in the lightbox.
It is developed for use with a private MediaWiki install, but it might work with wikipedia as well.
