Description Brion Vibber 2012-12-07 20:23:19 UTC
Bug 42786 asks for an addition to the mobile interface to make it easy to submit coordinates for an article.

To do this well, we need to be able to distinguish between "article doesn't have coordinates yet" and "coordinates are not relevant" -- eg [[electricity]] has no location, electricity is everywhere. :) We don't want to keep prompting people to add a location on that page.

A marker like {{#coordinates:none}} perhaps?

@Max: Is there a bugtracker for this extension? 
Would you like to have a component?

Maybe it is easier to tag pages, which need coordinates instead of tag pages, which does not need coordinates.

Maybe a empty #coordinates results in a coordinate request or a special word is there for a coordinate request (see [[Category:Articles needing coordinates]])
