Hi,
wiki exposes the nearby search of articles: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Nearby
I now you can use prop=coordinates to expose the coordinates of one article.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=coordinates&titl...
Is there any api to expose the nearby service for fetching articles close to one's coordinate? How to do the nearby above?

Special:Nearby is a feature of the MobileFrontend extension. You should file an "enhancement" bug in bugzilla against that extension asking for API access to the data.
If you already have an account on Wikimedia's bugzilla and are signed in, this link will take you to the right place to file the request: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20extensions&...
Thank you Brad, done it.
however, I understand there is no wikipedia api to expose the nearby search at the moment, correct? a) do you plan to set it up ? b) would it be possible to use the http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Nearby but instead of pointing the link to the wikipedia page, to point the link to our db (which is mapped on the wikipedia) ? how to ? I would like to return the results possibly using the curid of pages, not only titles.

You might be interested in the list=geosearch API call. I used it in my demo service ici, which displays articles about your current location:
I actually ended up pulling out the api querying bits into a separate Javascript library called wikigeo that takes some coordinates, and will query the Wikipedia API, and format the results as GeoJSON for easy placement on Leaflet or Google Maps.

Thank you Ed,
indeed, I am looking for smthing like this! I see your examples, is it possible to extend the json in order to get also the curid of articles, not only the url and titles of wiki pages?
Could you also add an example of how to use the list=geosearch api ? (this is wrong .. :) http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=geosearch )
thank you!

You should find an example below the doc if you scan the page for list=geosearch, I think it has this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=geosearch&gsradi...
It is possible to use the geosearch query as a generator for getting page information, like revision ids (is that what you meant by curid?). In wikigeo I wanted to get back image information, summary text, categories etc, so my api call was somewhat involved. I could try to write up something about it if you are interested.

Apart from the thumbnail, these come back as part of the example response in the example, which is easier to see in the JSON (for me):

I suggest you start experimenting with that, and move on to figuring out how to get images back using geosearch as a generator.

That looks like a bug to me. If you set gslimit to 50, you'll get 5 results. In general, it looks like you'll always get limit/10 results (with a minimum of 2).

Hi everybody, I fail to combine geodata extension results for a generator, and module to get images:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageimages&pithu...
I also tried with the sandbox and to combine a generator of coordinates with generator of images, but did not work. instead, when I use prop=coordinates, it works; but i want to fetch articles nearby a location
How do you fetch thumbnails in nearby search of wikipedia? thank you again!

That looks like a bug to me. If you set gslimit to 50, you'll get 5 results. In general, it looks like you'll always get limit/10 results (with a minimum of 2).

OK! thank you Ed!
last question: why do I get only two articles? I tried to set the limit but still two results.. &gslimit=10
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=geosearch&gsradi... *&gslimit=10*

Apart from the thumbnail, these come back as part of the example response in the example, which is easier to see in the JSON (for me):

I suggest you start experimenting with that, and move on to figuring out how to get images back using geosearch as a generator.

thank you Ed,
for curid I mean pageid of the article. I basically nead the title, the pageid, the thumbnail (and if
possible also
the meters of distance from your position ) is it already in your package?

You should find an example below the doc if you scan the page for list=geosearch, I think it has this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=geosearch&gsradi...
It is possible to use the geosearch query as a generator for getting page information, like revision ids (is that what you meant by curid?). In wikigeo I wanted to get back image information, summary text, categories etc, so my api call was somewhat involved. I could try to write up something about it if you are interested.
