Hi everyone,
Maarten did a little more hacking and now we have a working API to
make a live Google Map of monuments on your site. It's already active
on wlm.nl. Check it out here:

http://www.wikilovesmonuments.nl/monumenten/

To get the same thing on your own site here are the steps you'll need to follow

1) Construct the correct API url:
http://toolserver.org/~erfgoed/api/api.php?action=search&format=dynamickml&srcountry=CODE&srlang=CODE
Replace 'CODE' with your own country code
2) Copy-paste the URL in Google Maps (in the place where you'd
normally put a query for a street or something)
3) Click on the 'link' button on the top-right corner and select
'Customize and preview embedded map'
4) I would recommend making the map a little larger
5) Scroll down and copy-paste the iframe code to your site.

Note that many Mediawiki installations probably prohibit copy-pasting
iframe chunks like that.
