Hello, so I have 3.5 Mio objects in my database that are coming from 42 Wikipedias. There are also some objects from projects like WikiLovesMonuments. Wikidata contains only 1.2 Mio articles, but I hope this is only a question of time to have all objects.
The database is available on WMLabs now[1]. Each object on the map have pop-up and on the end of it there there you can find the source. I have in the moment a problem with nl.wp because they doesn't work in my source from User:dispenser[2]. The problem with kangaroo-isle was a missing icon, it works now. Greetings Tim [1]http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/maps-l/2014-April/001364.html [2]https://toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/locateCoord.py?dbname=coord_nlwiki&lon=4.890444&lat=52.370197&range_km=10 Am 10.05.2014 10:46, schrieb Jane Darnell: > Kolossos, > Thanks for this work - it's fascinating to see the huge gaps in the > data and I was wondering if maybe this reflects the work of lots of > individuals who have input those properties by hand, or whether some > people have enabled clever bots for their regions that other regions > could reuse?
