sure, but it is not the feature i mentioned: sorry for not having being clear.

what i want to do is the possibility to adapt the number of articles in relation to the scale of the map.
So If i have 500 articles at city scale, I'll have 500 articles at country scale.

I think there should be a workaround, because the scale setting is in some wikiproject
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia%3AWikiProject_Geographical_coordinates

The limit on radius is there for performance reasons, and in general
increasing it will be pointless in densely populated areas as you will
get no more than 1000 points closest to your coordinates anyway.
