I’m currently looking into the GeoData Extension to make location based 
Wikipedia queries.
There are still some open questions - would be nice if sb could provide 
guidance.

- The release status of the extension is still experimental. Is it safe to use 
it in production (mobile app)? Are there some hard limit how often I can query 
the API? Just thinking when the app gets popular…

- Is there a way to increase the search radius? E.g. When showing a continent 
(Europe) on a map, I would like to display articles for all countries (sth like 
`gsmindim` would be useful in this case too). I couldn’t find a way to do this 
other than making multiple queries for different coordinates which does not 
scale very well.

Thanks
