Steve's rules of geohashing:
 +
 +
# The bush bash is always longer than it looked on the map.
 +
# The bush bash always takes longer than you thought it would.
 +
# You will find a better way out of the bush bash than the way in. Unless you rely on this rule, in which case, the reverse applies.

== Auto-expedition template ==
 +
 +
A nice hack to automatically fill in an expedition template when you edit a blank expedition page.
 +
 +
1. Go to https://geohashing.site/geohashing/User:Stevage/common.js and copy all the code (from <code><nowiki>// <includeonly></nowiki></code> onwards)
 +
 +
2. Go to the equivalent URL for your user name (eg https://geohashing.site/geohashing/User:CoolGeohasher/common.js), edit, paste, save.

Steve's rules of geohashing:

  1. The bush bash is always longer than it looked on the map.
  2. The bush bash always takes longer than you thought it would.
  3. You will find a better way out of the bush bash than the way in. Unless you rely on this rule, in which case, the reverse applies.

Auto-expedition template

A nice hack to automatically fill in an expedition template when you edit a blank expedition page.

1. Go to https://geohashing.site/geohashing/User:Stevage/common.js and copy all the code (from // <includeonly> onwards)

2. Go to the equivalent URL for your user name (eg https://geohashing.site/geohashing/User:CoolGeohasher/common.js), edit, paste, save.

Successful hashes

For a map of all my expeditions:
