Chrome extension that removes the citations from Wikipedia pages; this way, text to audio programs don't speak the numbers when reading Wikipedia articles. (chrome.google.com)

Useful! Did you write this? It's missing one useful feature: we need an easy way to put citations back on one particular article, if we happen to be doing research. As it is, I need to go into the extensions manager thing and disable it, then reload the article.

I did not. However you can disable the extension by clicking the icon in the top right corner and then it will show a large disable/enable button which will automatically load the Wikipedia page with or without citations.

Either I missed something, or that Icon isn't visible to screen-readers. The only way I can find to load an article with citations is to disable the extension.
Edit: Oh, never mind. It got removed from the toolbar somehow. I put it back and...yeah, it works. Sometimes it can be difficult to tell the difference between "not accessible" and "user error".
