I've now been told of another tool https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikishootme/ which

Likewise I checked using BT broadband and the window of the room I am sitting in

Congratulations on a great tool, it gives me a couple of photos to take when i

I've just been introduced to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Nearby
which lists articles near your current location and from the thumbnail it
is fairly obvious whether it has an image or not.
Has anyone tried using this in outreach to photographers?
