I spent a while today trying to figure out why the app's Nearby didn't seem to be very accurately determining the angle between the device and the article's geo coords.
Angles seemed to be off by strange amounts depending on how close I was to an article's supposed location.
I believe I found the problem. Run the query below and you'll see the result for Wikimedia Foundation:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&colimit=1&format=j...
The API result says the foundation's coordinates are: 37.787, -122.4
But if you look at the article on desktop it says the Foundation's coordinate are: 37.78*697*, -122.*399677*
You can see what's happening.
Can we make the API not degrade the coordinates? Super quick fix? (Or is there some extra parameter I should be using?)
