In french the success story is a combination of different process:
*a very active french heritage project, with the creation of all the articles about historical monuments in france
*the developpment of the tools on toolserver for the visualization of geolocated articles on maps like google maps
*some peoples fall in love of this tools and start to add kml template on each categories of articles that could be visualized this way
*categorization of the articles laking geolocalization in hidden cats "articles lacking geolocalisation", very efficient !
Obviously there is more parametrer like the creation of the list of all the heritage site per canton in switzerland, it makes a strong example for other wikipedian.
Cheers
