[edit] Maparea
Assuming the enabling of the Extension:Gis/database extension, there is also a function to articles in Wikipedia covering a certain area. The points are listed in Wikimap format. This function is meant for use by other functions, so the raw wiki format is ususally used, not HTML.
The URL format of the request is:
$mediawiki/extensions/gis/index.php?maparea=GEOBOX&action=raw
where GEOBOX has exactly the same format as the body of the geo tag, when a box is specified using the to keyword. If a type is specified, only points that use this particular type will be included.
