Permanent update of Wikivoyage nearby-articles data files necessary
- Problem: In order to show nearby articles on maps used at Wikivoyage JavaScript data files at tools.wmflabs.org like https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikivoyage/w/data/en-articles.js are needed by the Karthographer.js. This text file should be updated monthly or better daily.
- Who would benefit: All Wikivoyage branches.
- Proposed solution: The list of all articles with the coordinate and a representative image can be retrieved from the wiki's database. A cron job to update these text files should be started maybe daily. This solution does not need much computing time. A smarter way is to get this information at the process of setting-up a map and the change of zoom level in nearby mode both from the wiki's database and Wikidata.
