@Aklapper can you please help redirect to the correct team?
Quiet out here... There weren't any pages found with nearby topics. Try creating a new page or adding location to an existing one
Nearby is working fine. Geodata API is returning no results.
Is rowiki using the parser function in its coordinate templates?

Is the wiki using the {{coordinates:}} parser function in its coordinates template or infobox or such?
Each page has to tell the coordinates in a machine readable format, which is done by the coordinates parser function of the GeoData extension
as linked from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:NearbyPages:
Special:Nearby
The page Special:Nearby lists articles that are geotagged nearest to the user's current location, as provided by their browser.
with a link to GeoData extension behind "geotagged" - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:GeoData
According to the database there is no much about coordinates, only from some local files
[rowiki_p]> select count(*) from geo_tags; +----------+ | count(*) | +----------+ | 1283 | +----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) [rowiki_p]> select page_namespace, count(*) from geo_tags left join page on page_id = gt_page_id group by page_namespace; +----------------+----------+ | page_namespace | count(*) | +----------------+----------+ | NULL | 203 | | 6 | 1080 | +----------------+----------+ 2 rows in set (0.01 sec)
Compare with enwiki:

It is a up to the local wiki community to make the nearby search working.
It used to call the parser function. Apparently I broke that a while ago, while moving to maplink, likely because my unserstanding was that maplinks also add the coordinates to the database - something i can't find any docs about today.
Closing since the count in the database is increasing. Thanks for your help.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/GeoHack using the coordinates from external links to build up some of the world maps (like https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Imageworld-small.png)
