Hello,
I moved with my Wikipedia coordinate extraction project Wikipedia-World:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Georeferenzierung/Wikipedia-World/en
from Mysql to PostGIS on ptolemy.

The most advantage is that it is much faster and really support all 273 
languages.
I have 3 tables for different zoomlevels and use a geometry index (gist).
I use coordinates-database from dispenser and merge the entries with the 
interwikilinks to one table.

I support the parameter "title" and can so extract more than one coordinate per 
article.
Everybody on ptolemy should have access to the database u_kolossos.

I hope ptolemy will be stable over the next few days because I want to publish 
the tool to the german community.
I would be happy if somebody else make a announcement to the other wikipedia 
communities.


Greetings Kolossos
