You can now embed parts of [http://maps.hitchwiki.org/ maps./ hitchwiki.org/maps/] into articles on hitchwiki. It's quite simple:* Go to [http://maps.hitchwiki.org/ maps./ hitchwiki.org/maps/], zoom to the place you want to embed and if you want, add some markers.
* Click on ''link here'' in the box to the left.
* A tag for hitchwiki will show up ("To include in hitchwiki.org:"). Just copy&paste this string (<code><nowiki><map lat='xx.xxxxxxxxxx' lng='x.xxx' zoom='xx' view='x' /></nowiki></code>) to your article.
* <code>float='right'</code> to put in on the right of the page.
* <code>width='200'</code> or <code>height='300'</code> to change the size.
* <code>view='3'</code> defines the source of map: ** "0" sets the standard Google Maps view, ** "1" the satellite view, ** "2" the satellite view including the map material, and ** "3" sets the [http://www.openstreetmap.org OpenStreetMap] material on first place.* <code>country='United Kingdom'</code> shows all the tips from the hitchwiki map of the specified country. Often, there are more tips than without adding this parameter.
