LoPoint missing Wikipedia link and photos
Not processed
At 35.77774, 10.82841 the layer "LoPoints (online)" displays 4 points with this as the main one. None of them shows links to Wikipedia, and probably as a consequence, also none of the Wikipedia and Wikimedia photos. As my Locus is set to English, I'd expect https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourguiba_mausoleum to be linked (similar to other LoPoints), but French or other language entry would also be fine as they are interlinked.
In OsmAnd, the link to Wikipedia is shown, so some correlation information seems to exist — would great if the same correlation information was used by Locus.
Similarly, at 35.59308, 10.05306 a link https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raqqada shall appear.
Hi Georg. Currently Locus uses only direct, human-mapped links between osm dataset and Wikipedia. There are many places that have some Wikipedia/Wikidata/Wikimedia presence but miss the direct link (Wikidata identifier, like "Q123456"). We don't know how many, until we do the computation. These places often (I rather presume here) have location and some form of categorization. So matching is no rocket-science, more like some form of "fuzzy" guesswork. But currently, this is not done yet. (We have more pressing issues, i. e bad global search functionality e.t.c). I agree this is a feature to do, definitely.

I understand, a certain quality check by human step – so the way to go is adding links in OSM objects. Do you know or can you easily provide a tool showing wikipedia articles with coordinates but no incoming link from OSM data? Maybe that could be a quest for Street Complete.
