This could just be my inexperience here. To me, maps and wikidata are
clearly wikimedia software, but do not seem to be mediawiki software. They
are "related" to mediawiki, but I'm not sure what that should mean. It
sounds like you define mediawiki as being much broader than I was thinking.

Thanks for continuing the conversation.
