Please note I'm not speak on behalf of WMAU committee and as far as I'm
aware no one has proposed anything to the committee in relation to WLM
WLM is a complex issue
As we found out last year if Australia wants to participate in WLM we
cannot run a scaled down version, neither can we include War
I can add a little more as I was in the loop of some email conversations in
2013.
A big problem for us to participate in WLM is the expectation that we can
upload a database of monuments including lat/long coordinates for use with the
WLM Mobile app. I don’t know how it is in other countrie
"I don’t know how it is in other countries, but we just don’t have the
ability to construct such a database without a massive manual effort."
Is it possible to pin the monuments on a collaborative google map, then
export the data needed?

Re: Is it possible to ... ?
An excellent question ...
See here for the WLM database requirements

It probably goes without saying that nothing will be in that exact format,
but some things would be more easily converted than others.
