This template takes in latitute and longitude, should we get it to include the template Coor d which also takes in latitute and longtitude and seems to be the ultimate top-level template for the ___location of places. This would ensure that anything that reads the geographic ___location of articles would then pick up anything using this map. See WikiProject Geographical coordinates for more details. --MarkS (talk) 19:55, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to this template. It was such a relief when I found this one. I had been thinking on how to create this for sometime while working on a bot that creates Indian towns and cities. I was able to plug-in this template and get the bot running. Thanks again, Ganeshk (talk) 21:03, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Is it possible
...or would it be possible to have more than one city on these maps? --estavisti 19:52, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
- It's not possible at the moment, but it could be done. One serious problem would be overlapping of names, which would create a need to micromanage the position of names. That would be likely to break across browsers. Zocky | picture popups 19:32, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- Another note: The way this is implemented now, all the smart bits are in this template, and subtemplates just return the requested data. We could make pretty much any other template that uses that data - i.e. the same place on several maps, several places on the same map, superimposition of other things than labels, etc., without breaking or influencing this one in any way.
