Placeopedia
What a cool idea! Take wikipedia and google maps and stir and you get placeopedia
‘Hello, and welcome to Placeopedia, a simple site where you can connect Wikipedia articles with places, and then make use of our database either to browse, or syndicate the whole lot. We hope that lots of people will connect places they know with their corresponding Wikipedia article, and then our syndicated data can be used as a general geographic lookup table for Wikipedia. ‘

It’s also worth noting that Tom from the Google Earth community is porting the links to Google Earth. Awesome stuff!
