I think we should think about developing all tools with a separate
language file, so translation can be ran in paralell.
Mine have been using a "label" for strings and a _T() function to fetch
the translated string. Something like mediawiki.
Not sure how much could be reused between different tools.

We had the same problem for the Portuguese coordinates
that were in
IGeoE Hayford Gauss format, a national format, but I used ArcGIS to
transform the coordinates, which seems to be accurate. If anybody else
needs to convert coordinates, just send them to me (preferably in
DBase IV format, but Excel is also ok) and I will return them in WGS84
format.
By the way, check

monuments map.

Wikimapia has some buildings geolacated. Not a solution, but
it may help in some cases.
A problem we have encountered is that local administrations in
Spain are using coordinates in UTM ED50 format. We use a
spreadsheet to convert them into GPS format, but it is not
precise enough for landmarks. Geohack does not have UTM ED50
format.

I hope this helps us all out..
I am currently working on improving this one. My current
version will do
any changes you do directly to the generated
template, so
you don't need
to click the coordinate again, and with help of
Dispenser,
the maintainer
of the geohack tools, it can select the region
automatically. I will move
this version shortly to multichill's
version.
If we should support other templates for other wiki's, I can
look into
that
as well. For the auto-edit tools to work, some
javascript
should be
installed on that wiki, but then I can add it to
the list.
I am thinking of moving this to a project account on the
toolserver, so
if others are willing to help with this, let me
know.
Regards,
Andre
