It's good that they're working from their own stashed copy instead of hitting us live, because I doubt our servers could handle their users' load. But of course on the other hand it's supremely annoying that they're working from their own stashed copy, because (as you note and I emphatically agree) our lovely instantaneous wiki-quick edit-save-test loop is broken.
Since our coordinates are just crammed in the article text, no live access would be possible in any case. The best approximation would be to read every change looking for updates.
We've survived for years having other mirrors not update quickly. ;)
