Yuri, Max - This is amazing. Congratulations.
I'm reading on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps > The service is currently in a *experimental* mode meaning that at times it may be rapidly changing and unstable. Currently, we can only handle traffic from **.wmflabs.org <http://wmflabs.org>* and**.wikivoyage.org <http://wikivoyage.org>* (referrer header must be either missing or set to these values) but we hope to open it up to Wikipedia traffic if we see enough use. What's needed to open the new map service to Wikipedia itself?
