🌏 Embed Inside Notion

If you’re preparing for the school year this coming Fall or Wikipedia is a heavily used resource for you, why not embed the site into a Notion page? Here’s how to use the embed function and what this layout can offer for your notes. There are drawbacks in regards to navigation. This is not a browser (ie. no back button). However, if you want to grab info from one Wikipedia page at a time, this layout is useful.

Copy/Paste the web address into a notion page and select “Create Embed”

Distraction-Free Reading Mode: Select Full Screen

As you can see, Wikipedia page returns to homepage upon fullscreen mode. This is certainly a draw back if you want to go back and forth to your notes, but a handy feature regardless.
