Wikipedia goes 3 columns

Recently I had to read a lot of wikipedia articles. If you have a widescreen monitor - you know how its looks like. Very long lines of text stretching across the whole 1920px wide of browser window. As well as big gaps of free space near contents and infobox tables. I thought that it's possible to somewhat improve readability of wikipedia by using greasemonkey and new html5 columns markup. Done ;)

Script will:
- Display wikipedia article text in 3 columns
- Hide menu and ads
- Move contents table and infoboxes to left pane instead of menu

Installation:
- You'll need a userscript compatible browser
- Then just click this link
- OR use openuserjs.org mirror

Enjoy!

P.S.
