In some languages, those pages were first created, and then a bot came adding geolocation coordinates. All this before Wikidata. See for instance https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-Amancet and the corresponding https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanch_Amau%C3%A7, and in English https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-Amancet That article is available in 20 languages, including Cebuano (heavy bot user) and the languages showcased in Markus' new and splendid visualization tool. -- Quim Gil Engineering Community Manager @ Wikimedia Foundation http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Qgil
