Hi,
I am trying to retrieve geo location information of search suggest results. Can you please suggest ?
I am using http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search=London&fo...
however I need to get back extent or lat/long info of the search results.
This information is not stored in the database. The best you can do is grab the wikitext of each of these pages and look for the geolocation template in there. I think there may also be tools or libraries that already do this, but I don't know of any specific ones.
