Hey here is a nice site which can also be used for finding exact Geo Codes. http://www.giswiki.org/hjl_get_CoorE.htm ___ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] [Uploads to Commons] Geocoding and Multilingual descriptions
Hi,
*hjl_getCoor* is gives {{coor d}}, {{coor dms}} templates which are suitable
for articles. For Images, it is better to use {{location}} or {{location
dec}} to point camera location. For that, I think GeoLocator (
http://tools.freeside.sk/geolocator/geolocator.html) is easy. By using
GeoLocator it is possible to add camera direction also (eg:
http://goo.gl/7L5cv).
Thank you

Subhashish,
Thanks for the link. I still scratch my head over adding coordinates to
articles.
Praveen, thank you very much. I never managed to find out about Camera
Directions.
I'm sure this will be of immense help to programs like Malayalam loves
Wikipedia.
--Regards,

Hi all, By geo tagging the articles we can use wikiminiatlas. Check the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_volcanoes_in_Canada by clicking on the any globe Some of the indic wiki are not enabled with wikiminiatlas. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiMiniAtlas Following wiki has enabled wikiminiatlas :- Marathi,Malayalam,Tamil,Odhisa Following wiki has not enabled :- Hindi,Bengali How to enable WikiMiniAtlas on a wiki ? snip copied from http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiMiniAtlas I am from *xx*.wikipedia.org and would like to enable the WikiMiniAtlas on our project!Great, this is easy and should work out of the box, just add code to include MediaWiki:Wikiminiatlas.jshttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikiminiatlas.jsin your local *MediaWiki:Common.js* file. Please do not copy the whole javascript code to your project as you will not get automatic updates, and the interaction protocol between the client javascript and the server may change any time.If you'd like clickable links in your project language on the map your project should have an active geocoding effort going on and must be supported by Wikipedia-Worldhttp://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Georeferenzierung/Wikipedia-World/en . /snip Thanks, Naveen Francis On 26 April 2011 11:47, Srikanth Ramakrishnan rsrikant...@gmail.com wrote: Subhashish, You're most welcome.
