OSM offer a simple and standard way to express a link to a map feature geometry, for example the Singapore's Merlion Fountain is openstreetmap.org/way/182819157 ... So, how to do similar thing to a box represented by its
Geohash is a de facto standard to enconde LatLong in only one (base32) number, accepted by PostGIS and many others, see ST_GeoHash() function. PS1: the non-OSM geohash.org/w21z76281 is ugly (no zoom no box) and points to GoogleMap. As @Maxerickson pointed, geohash.org/w21z76281?format=osm will be near it, but there are no box renderization, and it is a non-OSM's domain name (not really-open as PS2: there are something better to illustrate the resolution box, but also GoogleMap, movable-type.co.uk/scripts/geohash you can see a box... with some work you can see changing to 9-characters and copy/paste "w21z76281".

On their tips and tricks page they show how to redirect to osm: http://geohash.org/w21z76281?format=osm For more geohash features on the openstreetmap.org website, the likely answer is that you would have to implement it and then advocate for it's inclusion. Hi @maxerickson, it is a "blind link", with no box, no "resolution clues" about the Geohash of the link. There are something similar to the cited movable-type.co.uk/scripts/geohash with some e box renderization? And some that is OSM.ORG or Wikidata.org or OpenStreetMap.org (... domain that is really open and reliable)
