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&f…
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.
