When clicking on a monument I would like to read about it - this might be an entire wikipedia article or a simple summary. For instance the "Mills Building and Tower" is nearby my current location. There is information about this here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mills_Building_(San_Francisco) why are we not making this available? There is also a great opportunity here to encourage edits/adding articles to watch lists but that's for another ticket.
I could swear that a link used to be in the detail page... I think we lost it when moving from prototype to initial implementation. Should be easy to add a "Wikipedia article" link if the article field is set; send off to https://[lang].wikipedia.org/wiki/[article] with a class="external".
In progress at https://github.com/wikimedia/WLMMobile/pull/102 Note that the article may not exist, in which case we may want to do things like check its existence and color the link?
Agreed; checking if the article exists first, and placing a creation link (maybe with a preloading, localisable message?) if it doesn't would be warmly welcomed. As for the colour, the obvious default choice would be to go for red, as this is already quite a recognisable feature on Wikipedia.
Closing since 102 addresses the original request.
