There isn't much in the way of settings that I've been able to find, but I do think that perhaps a sans-serif font would have been a better choice for screens (keep serif fonts for print versions of articles) and with a smaller font size might make the text feel a bit denser. Also, they've been a bit thorough with the spacing between paragraphs and sections. I suppose that with a custom stylesheet you could change that.
I guess there's still the same data and information, but the emphasis on images and lack of information on things like lists and categories swings the balance from data to visuals.

The NASA article, for example. Check out how much data disappears from the right margin like location coordinates and employment numbers. I get that it's not usually relevant to most users, but I don't feel like it detracts from the experience for those uninterested. It's easy to skim right past and maintains a relatively clean layout.
Is there a more data-intensive setting for wikiwand? I'm all for minimal, but the standard wikipedia interface seems to be more data oriented, which is what wikipedia is really used for.
