Shame you can’t manually input a location (not only for privacy, but for tourists and visitors who might want to plan ahead)

replace LAT and LONG
It’s very American that one of the pages nearby me is a well known mass shooting.
I guess you live on the US. Most of America doesn’t have this problem
Correct, I only use American for the US because I don’t think there’s a term like “Mexican” or “Canadian” for the US other than “American”. US-ican or United States-ican doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.
Mexico actually refers to themselves as the United States of Mexico. Fun fact…
This is how you can get offline Wikipedia articles for OSM. Great when traveling.
You can, for example, read articles about things you pass in a plane, train, auto, or bike. Without internet.
Do you mind to elaborate?
Because the post is for Wikipedia website, which is online
In OsmAnd you can download map data for use offline. In the same download page for thr map data there’s also a download for Wikipedia data.
Download data is per country, so someone just bundled all the articles that have GPS coordinates withing the bounds of each country, and you can download all those articles for offline use in the OsmAnd app.
Thank you very much.
The place where I live
The lake I visited once
Two churches
A 14th century battle
A museum
A concentration camp
It’s not too great a puzzle, as you’re having your nations flag in your user name, but…
Kaunas?
Kaunas would have way more stuff around. :)
I live in a middle of historically significant nowhere.
On OsmAnd, go to configure map and enable Wikipedia. All articles with location are visible.
I love OsmAnd so I purchased the OsmAnd+, I highly recommend
