Thank you Ed, indeed, I am looking for smthing like this! I see your examples, is it possible to extend the json in order to get also the curid of articles, not only the url and titles of wiki pages?
Could you also add an example of how to use the list=geosearch api ? (this is wrong .. :) http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=geosearch ) thank you!
