Article title on which wiki, and in which language? Marble Arch, Mramorový oblouk (Londýn) or マーブル・アーチ? It's easy enough to say "the Wikipedia in the language spoken there", but what would we do for Switzerland or Belgium, and how would the software know? Let's not just assume enwiki imperialism. :-) The name on Commons might be a sensible alternative, but I imagine that lots of monuments don't (yet) have good links from their Commons pages if they exist at all to Wikipedia/etc. useful articles on them...
