Changes the HTML of the superscript citation numbers from
<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference">
<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a>
</sup>
to
<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference" aria-hidden="true">
<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a>
</sup>
which should prevent most screen readers from reading the number aloud.
Note
[edit]Installing this script will make navigating to citations very difficult using a screen reader — this is a "quality of life" script, and arguably reduces the accessibility of the page.
Installation instructions
[edit]Hint: It's much easier if you get ScriptInstaller, then navigate to User:TheresNoTime/ariahiderefs.js and click "Install" at the top.
However, here's the manual method:
- Place
{{subst:iusc|User:TheresNoTime/ariahiderefs.js}}
on Special:MyPage/common.js or a skin-specific page, like Special:MyPage/vector.js. - Clear your cache and enjoy!
