Good idea, but not with the default openlayer marker :)

Easiest of all would probably be to include the marker by default, and let
people edit it out if they don't want it. Richard

Hi,
I think that's slightly different to what I had in mind. My suggestion was to
make a very simple way to make a map marker. For example, if a friend asks me
where a restaurant is, or a park, I want to go to the map and quickly create a
link with a marker to send to my friend. I can paste the link into email, or
Facebook, or any chat program.
I can do this right now, but I need to edit the long permalink (or add "?m" to
the short permalink). I'd like to skip this step.
Thanks,
Andrew

Hithis would be really great. Another good thing would be if you could generate
a permalink for searched areas.....for example: if you search vor Berlin and
click on the first entrance the border Berlin city will be shown on the map....
Maybe it would be possible to have a small Link symbol next to the search
results.

Hello,
On the main map at osm.org there is a 'permalink' hyperlink, which generates a
URL encoding the current view of the map. It is easy to change this into a
marker link by editing the URL and changing "lat" and "lon" to "mlat" and
"mlon".
Would it be beneficial to add another hyperlink which will do this
automagically? Maybe called "markerlink", which produces a URL containing
"mlat" and "mlon".
I know it means work for someone, but if it's a good idea then hopefully it can
be implemented easily. I don't know if it's been suggested before, but if such
a feature were available I would use it a lot. I often make my own OSM marker
links to send to people by editing the permalink URL, so I'd appreciate a
one-click function to do this.
Comments please. If it's a good idea I will submit it to OSM trac.
I like it, but should be considered also into the url shortening part (now if
you add marker via mlon and mlat and make a shorturl it transforms it in lon
and lat..)
Thanks,
Andrew
Regards,Stefano
