[My first post - please let me know if I should be
asking somewhere
else.]
Almost two months ago, User:GMaxwell undertook to arrange for Google to
read the new 'coord' template:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Coord>
when they parse the raw Wikipedia data for their Google Earth Wikipedia
layer.
Unfortunately, he hasn't posted for some time (I do hope he's OK).
Can someone else pick up that baton, please, or advise me who to
contact? Or perhaps even confirm that that's been done?
get
the Wikipedia database dumps, do some text processing stuff with it, and use that.
(Although I probably could have confirmed this with the Google Earth developer
yesterday at their developer day, but it was stand around for ages after his talk
when he was swamped by questions to ask this, _or_ go and drink free beer...
what are you gonna do?!)
What do we have to do here? If the template changes, isn't it up to Google to update
their internal tool for parsing the database dump to extract this info?
-- All the best,
Nick.
