wikilinks, GeoHacks seems to use the rightmost dim: or scale: setting

The <code>scale:</code> parameter specifies the desired [[scale (map)|map scale]] as 1:''N'', overriding the scale implied by any [[#type:T|type:]] parameter.

[[tswiki:GeoHack|GeoHack]] uses <code>scale:</code> to select a map scale for a 72 [[Dots per inch|dpi]] computer monitor. If no <code>dim:</code>, <code>type:</code>, or <code>scale:</code> parameters are provided, GeoHack uses its default scale of 1:300,000.
