You can use the --latlon and --distance parameters of Marble to set center and
zoom values on startup, e.g.
$ marble --latlon=49.0,8.41 --distance=1.5
That doesn't help for URI style links though. Attached is a patch for the
Marble KDE application to register another parameter --geo-uri which parses
(basic) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_URI strings. Basic as in supporting
longitude, latitude and altitude which should be all we need.
It can be combined with a custom protocol handler that registers with KDE to
react to geo: URIs (also attached). With both around clicking on the geo: URIs
in Wikipedia with some browser then opens up Marble at the given place (center
coordinate and zoom level) here.
