With some wonderful code, wikipedia now churns out clickable location maps of countries which add a new degree of interactability to the wiki ex: http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Institutes_of_Management . But the process of marking each point using coordinates is tiring and cumbersome especially if something like a clickable road map is to be made. It would be very useful if one could reference the coordinates from an article like geo:London would return the geographical coordinates of London and mark it on the map. This can really unleash the power of location maps.
Marking as WONTFIX: Semantic MediaWiki implements this kind of stuff, and enabling it on WMF wikis is another bug.
