Design provenance

Markup ported from the V1-era Module:Area render (1106 lines, restored Aug 6 in 229f36ae, cut Sep 3 in 940b49fa). The 2026-09 canonicalization dropped the guides pane, news pane, featured card wall, and map search — Jan noticed the loss live (2026-09-14) and this restore puts the sections back as pure wikitext: facts stay in SMW queries (#ask), rendering stays in the existing Area item / Guide cards / Article geo pin renderers. No Lua was added; every invocation targets a module that already exists on the wiki.
