[request] Information and Power Lookup tools not fully working for Wikipedia content

Sorry if this has been reported and discussed already.

I love to have the "Information" window open on the right and if I'm unsure of a word, a simple click in any document updates to the Info window. Except it does not within Wikipedia.(I just enabled hover mode and still not doing anything within Wikipedia tool.)

I can however right-click and select Power Lookup and that does work (nice). However, if the word is a Wikipedia link: clearly a left click follows the link - as expected. A right click gives the context menu and I can select Power Lookup if the link is a single word. If its longer then most of the context options are gone.

So basically Right-click Power Lookup is not an option for the very key words someone might be interested in (linked phrases).

I use this click ==> Info Window help when reading for all the things I don't know, cant remember or just want to check. Its one of the things that make reading in the Logos software great.

    At this time, Power Lookup and Information do not work with the Wikipedia section.  This is a great suggestion, I have created a case for us to look into getting Wikipedia included.

    Thanks Steve.

    I'd got used to being able to do it anywhere and have the Info window hit my preferred lookup dictionaries etc. There are many words I just don't know or don't trust that I know what it means to be sure of what is being said. As above, its one of the things that make reading things in the Logos PC app great.

    Regards, Jim.
