geocode most of the articles

[guaka]

• use <map> tag for this? relates to Replace map tags with image that links to Hitchmap #214
• while at it: send articles out as nostr notes, and later recent changes

how

• pywikibot
• Google Maps Geocoding API? @kenflannery? or something else?

[guaka]

Simplest way to get started: go through all articles, and add e.g. {{missing-geo}} template to the ones that don't have geo data now

If there's no data but there is an {{IsIn}}, the script can try to find the location this way.

wrote some code https://github.com/Hitchwiki/hwpybot

a lot of articles have latlng, pushing these onto relay.trustroots.org, which can be displayed in the dev version of the nostroots app now

remarks:

• looks like some articles have an incorrect latlng, quite easy to spot now
• postpone the attempt at automatically geocoding articles

nice to try next:

• use plus codes to e.g. display countries in a more sensible way in the nostroots app
• add {{geo-missing}} template to articles that don't have latlng nor {{IsIn}}
