Maps has been enabled on Wikidata :)

What's the status of enabling using a SPARQL query in Wikidata to display POIs in a mapframe/maplink? (If possible, I would be interested in showing any work-in-progress in a week's time)

@Susannaanas, next week you will be able to draw anything on top of the map using the graph extension (it will support getting static maps) - so you can draw any additional visualization, including directly from sparql on a map (or even have two different maps or any other crazy drawing) - see my example (for now you must click "play" - I need to update the backend). But, this is a graph ext, not map, so only static maps that don't move much.
As for this task -- I will need to speak with @Gehel and @Smalyshev to make sure that this will have approximately the same usage pattern as via the geoshape service. There will be no deployments until next week (Ops are taking a break)

@Susannaanas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Graph:Street_map_with_marks - static map. Also, please update your maps later today - we are discontinuing "href" ExternalData, replacing it with "service". See example.
