First, wanted to thank-you for compiling these weekly summary. I don't know how typical I am, but I always read them, especially the "press,articles, blog posts" section.
o Federated query comparing Wikidata and UK Parliament database, to show differences of more than 10km in locations of UK parliamentary constituencies [1]
This was a great use of visualization.
Is it possible to add a key? I didn't know which DB the red dot was (on the longer ones I checked, I think the red dot is the wrong one).
And, is it possible to add a link from the map to the query editor?

Hello Darren,
From the map, you can return to the query editor by two different ways:
- link "Wikidata query service" on the bottom left corner of the screen - hover the menu on the right side of the screen and choose "edit query"
