Add links to relevant Wikipedia articles

When viewing the details of a historical marker, it would be good to add links to relevant Wikipedia articles related to the subject of the historical marker.

Some notes and considerations:

  • In Wikidata, historical markers already have the commemorates property (P547) and this can be used to find relevant Wikipedia articles.
  • Which Wikipedia languages should be linked to?
    • This could probably default to the user's selected language if ever localization is added to the app.
    • Or link to all available articles from a set list of languages, either hardcoded or based on user preferences.
    • As a first step, English can be used for now since the UI is in English and the English Wikipedia has the most number of articles for the subjects covered by the historical markers.

Resolved in v1.1.0. Only English Wikipedia is linked.
