actually the {{Coord}} template in WP is a different (parallel) approach,
it links an WP article to a certain (point) coordinate, while using the
wikipedia tag in osm links an OSM object to a wikipedia article. This is
not the same, and for features with a bigger extension (think of countries,
rivers, lakes, ...) it is far more useful to have the object linked instead
of a point coordinate.
