Goals edit
- Provide access to articles which are geographically nearby the current
- Display article locations relative to each other on a map
Ideas edit
- Try something like an edge menu but from the right side
- Allow user to use current location rather than article location
- Allow user to search map to discover articles nearby a specific location
- Utilize map function to add geolocation to article which does not currently have location information
- Surface geolocated content from sister projects such as commons and wikivoyage
