Description robert marshall 2024-04-19 19:11:37 UTC 
When the wikipedia applet is used and the playback finishes (either stop or stop after this track) the applet clears. I think it would be useful if it didn't clear (at least for me!). 
Use case:
I'm reading the article and I haven't finished reading it by the end of track and I want to continue reading and the next track has a different artist, so I set it to stop at the end but it clears the article which is, I think, unhelpful.

Hmm, true, that's a valid point. I tried adding a button ("pause") that stops any automatic Wikipedia page updates. Needs a bit more polishing but I think it makes sense, I'll probably add this in a couple of days.

Add a button to stop Wikipedia from updating automatically

Makes sense, so one does not have to pause track to keep reading the same page.
Using pause icon and string, at least the string can be made more descriptive
later.
