I am just looking at the guts of Wikipedia mobile app and see what
sort of services it uses.
I found out it is also using Geonames (see code below). It also uses
JSON to get the lat and long.

#geo.js
function geoLookup(latitude, longitude, lang, success, error) {
var requestUrl =
"http://ws.geonames.net/findNearbyWikipediaJSON?formatted=true&";;
requestUrl += "lat=" + latitude + "&";
requestUrl += "lng=" + longitude + "&";
requestUrl += "username=wikimedia&";
requestUrl += "lang=" + lang;
$.ajax({
url: requestUrl,
success: function(data) {
success(data);
},
error: error
});
}
