Wikimapia description and comments #2155

Let's talk about adding Wikimapia comments to our place page to work in the offline mode, like OSM description and Wikipedia description. I found Wikimapia comments extremely useful in some areas. It would be nice to have the description and all comments in our offline database.

And Wikivoyage too!

We had travel guides with Wikivoyage content, that showed points/articles on top of the map: https://github.com/organicmaps/travelguide

Any chance you'd bring these back?

biodranik commented 2 years ago

We'll see. Alternatively, textual info can be stored directly in OM, but not images.

Any updates or plans on this? Would be interested in such a feature. Thanks!

As a side note wikivoyage.org offers the POIs as GPX download already so maybe that means it just needs to be downloaded and displayed.
