This is awesome. Now, if I come across an interesting article, I can find places that may link to other interesting articles.
A suggestion: It'd be nice to be able to specify an article URL in the article search field. That way you can specify exactly what article you're interested in finding links to. For example, to get to the SMBC article page, I had to manually make my URL https://wikireverse.org/articles/en/Saturday_Morning_Breakfa... , I couldn't get there by searching for "Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal" (at least it wasn't in the first page of results) or "SMBC."

Anyway, thanks for making and sharing this.
