Hi Erlanda,
You could customize your JS to 1) detect which script is being used on the
record and 2) adjust the Wikipedia domain accordingly. Language is in the
041 MARC field https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/0xx/041.html but you need
to have that field or else there's no straightforward way, from looking at
a record, to know what language it's in.
Then your JS would be adjusted roughly like this (not knowing what it
currently looks like):
// map of language names to Wikipedia subdomains
// I think the 041 will always display in English? But you would want to
check
const map = { 'Armenian': 'hy', 'English': 'eng', 'Russian': 'ru'}
const lang = $('.language span[class^="lang_code]').text()
const wsubdomain = map[lang]
Then where you link to Wikipedia, use the variable wsubdomain, e.g.
`${wsubdomain}.wikipedia.org/...`.
Interesting customization! Both the Wikipedia link and the fact that it's
multilingual.
Best,
