Summary

The iOS app's Places feature includes a search interface built on the geosearch api. It also includes completion suggestions during search using the completion suggester.

Currently these suggestions do not take into account any geographic element. This request is to add an optional geographic co-ordinate parameter, which will be used to boost ranking results based on geographic distance.

User story

As a user of the Wikipedia iOS app in San Francisco, when I go to the Places tab and start to type a search for "Museum of Modern Art" I expect the San Francisco MoMA to be offered as a suggested query above the New York or other instances of similarly named museums.
