the idea is cool, and there already has been some discussion on this
issue. IMHO the other way around would be much better. If Wikipedia
provided an API to ask if there are articles for a certain geolocation,
we didn't need to enter and maintain all the URLs.
Example:
http://www.geonames.org/export/wikipedia-webservice.html
You can also search the archives based on the subject "Wikipedia
Integration".
Best regards,
ce
