The "KML file" link created by {{Attached KML}}? That appears normally to me on both desktop Chrome and mobile Firefox. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 23:09, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
Yes, the KML link. For me, its below the categories at the bottom of the page on desktop Chrome and Firefox and mobile Safari. Steelkamp (talk) 02:14, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
