Disable Wikipedia’s link preview when not logged in

firefoxwikipedia

I'd like to disable Wikipedia's article previews that are shown when hovering over a link:

I know I can disable those when being logged in but most of the time I'm using Wikipedia without being logged in. I also delete my cookies regularly.

I hoped that there would be a Greasemonkey script to disable them but I couldn't find anything relevant on OpenUserJS or Greasy Fork.

I'm using Firefox.

There is no need for a script. Wikipedia gives you the option via a pop-up no matter the browser.
Even not logged in you can turn it off by:

  • Hover over any article link.
  • On the preview, click on the gear icon in the bottom-right corner.

  • Select "Disable" in the pop-up and then "Save".
