I'm looking for a way to search for Wikipedia entries by locality or by gps coordinates, like the iPhone WikiMe application does except on the web. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

Best answer: maps.google.com. type in your local address. At the top of the map is a "more..." button. Check the wikipedia box.

Yup, seconded. And note that you can drive Google Maps with lat and long (I leave that as an exercise for the reader).
