Ok, it doesn't look right just now. As soon as I work out why that is...

Looks fine now :) --joannac 14:54, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Aussie Shaped

Hey. I hope you don't mind me making that minor edit to the shape. I think it looks better when it is shaped like Australia. Feel free to undo if you want. --CJ 23:38, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Matty, some time around 2:50am:

Can I make a tiny request? Could someone (not me) add secondary links to all the graticules, pointing to pages named, for example, [[-19,146]]? In my gradual, slightly compulsive drive to map half of North Queensland, I've been going around making names up willy-nilly. Not half an hour ago did I notice this awesome page, and fortunately most of my made-up names align; but in some cases (like Undara, where a local would always refer to that area by a name that other people might not think of) we're quite different. However, for every graticule I've (mis-)named, I've always made sure to make a [[LAT,LONG]] page that redirects to the actually-named page. So if the map linked to those [[LAT,LONG]] pages as well as the actual pages, that would be really cool. (And it would help me see which graticules I've named different.)
By the way, what's it like living in a graticule that doesn't suck?
