Hi Maarten,
My goal is to obtain a set of articles with coords for different
Wikipedias: knowing their title, coords, country-region. I am doing this
because I want to study characteristics of this specific group of articles.
This is a research study I want to include in my PhD.
Wikidata is great in many senses but I see that property coords does not
appear in all the articles which have coords. Besides, country-region
appears but in a different format.
I would like to know up to which point geo_tags is realiable, which
wikipedias implement it... (and where is the information in that table
from, templates from geodata or where.). This would allow me to take a
decision on the list of Wikipedias I want to study based on how update the
coords are in WikiData or geo_tags...Of course, as many wikipedias as
possible would be the best, from big to small ones.
Another option would be to detect links to Geohack as external links and
capture their text to see the country-region, but are they available in the
tables?
Thanks so much.
Marc Miquel

Can you elaborate more? What is your real goal? What is your user story?
You could probably pull a lot from Wikidata.
