Discussion

• Support for the achievement itself, but the page needs work on clarity and generally tidying things up, which can be done once it becomes an achievement. --KerrMcF (talk) 19:57, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

• Needs Work - I like the concept, but I don't think it's possible at the moment to view, on the wiki, a geohasher's total coordinates reached/expeditions per graticule. You have to go elsewhere, like geohashing.win. If tables similar to at Most_active_Geohashers, but limited to a single graticule, could be able to be created and posted to each graticule's page so it's easy to keep track of the relevant stats then this would work. A related issue that I have been thinking about and also I think needs to be addressed before this achievement goes live, is the issue of unsuccessful expeditions to a hash that others sucessfully reach. For example, Lachie did not make it to this hash, but as far as I'm aware, the stats gathering system would credit him with a success, as he is tagged as a participant on a hashpage labelled "coordinates reached". I'm sure this is solvable, but I'm not sure of the best approach. Johnwrw (talk) 00:55, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

• Valid points by Johnwrw above, but I still support the achievements even without those changes. Also, alternative name suggestions are appreciated; I like Graticuleader but suggested it mostly as a joke, there might be a cleverer name. --π π π (talk) 12:29, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
  • For what it's worth, I think the Graticuleader name works really well. --KerrMcF (talk) 15:20, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
