Hello and thanks for writing :) Norwegian Wikipedia already has mapframe enabled—have you had a chance to play with the code yet? If not, learning how to use mapframe is fairly easy for basic things and help can be found here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps/how_to:_embedded_maps.
More information about the map project and service can be found here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Maps. Also, for general discussion and questions, please send an email to: [email protected] for great knowledge sharing opportunities. Let me know if you have further questions after taking a look at the documentation. As Guillaume mentioned in his email, our engineering resources are quite small right now, but I think everything you're wanting to do can be done right now.
