Bug ID: 56612
Summary: Add map widget for coordinate selection
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: UploadWizard
Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
UploadWizard contains a coordinate field, but leaves it to the user to figure
out the coordinates. A map widget where they can just click at the right point
would make the task of adding a location much easier.
This map could also be used to suggest coordinates, especially in image
contests which use a fixed set of locations (and uploaders arrive through a
campaign link) - in such cases the available locations could be shown on the
map, along with their descriptions, and the user could be forced to choose one
of them.
(This is a potential OPW project:
