Hi,
I've been working on the wikipedia data overlay on our site, multimap.com. One of the things we'd really love to do is add thumbnail images to complement the summary text for an article that we display in our infoboxes. However, we're finding it difficult to programatically generate the URLs to specific images from the wiki tag.
I just asked this question on mediawiki-l. :) Better solution: use the API.
See Brion's post http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2008-February/025961.html.
cheers, Brianna
