This extension converts Chinese characters (both Simplified and Traditional) to pinyin letters, and also converts Traditional Chinese characters to Simplified Chinese characters. The original conversion utility was designed by PrimeZeroTools.

C-Pop Fantasie has created a MediaWiki extension based on this utility, primarily used for dynamically converting Traditional Chinese lyrics into pinyin and Simplified Chinese.

The website for the extension can be found here.
