Hi Mohamed
Indeed ... I had not noticed that coordinates were present inside and
outside the Infobox, and not consistent with each other :(
Of course this should be corrected in the Wikipedia source, but would it be
difficult during the extraction to set a priority, such as take first what
is in the infobox, and look outside the box otherwise?
Just an idea :)
