Biggest opportunity: “wiki” isn't earning a slot. You list it, but you're not in the first 24 results for that search. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 300 of 18.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,765 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| mediawiki your tag | #3 | #3 | 0 |
| wiki embed your tag | #10 | #11 | up 1 |
| wiki your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
6 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 4 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.

Many thanks to the author of this plugin. Initially, it did not work and gave an error message. Cause: You have to omit the inverted commas in the URL.

What a great resource. And nicely implemented. I only wish the info box and table of contents could be set to not display on mobile devices. They don’t format properly, so aren’t really an option to use. Perhaps in a premium version? Otherwise, perfect!

Works very well: will embed the whole Wiki page + Robert quickly replied to me to solve a problem with the URL.

Plugin is not compatible with PHP 7.2 or 7.3 Technical support does not answer… Update 16/04/2020 Now it works!! Thanks!!!

Works perfectly. Just have to enter the URL of the Wikipedia article you want. I love how it has the feature to let visitors stay on your website. When you link to the article just use the wiki_links argument and set it to overwrite. When you do that any links in the embedded Wikipedia article will load on your site on that embedded page.

Hi, great idea for this plugin, but it is not working in my case, I’m using WP version 4.8.2 with plugins: bbpress, custom sidebars and RDP wiki. The blog use the default WP theme that come with installation. I tried so far embed content in a post and page but the WP stops loading content when rendering the post or page, it breaks here in this tag –> <div class=”entry-content”> Any idea? thanks.
