Difference between revisions of "Expedition 10000"

Revision as of 04:27, 4 June 2015

Some time this spring or summer, the geohashing community will be celebrating its 10,000th geohash expedition. Who knew, seven years ago, that it would take this long? (rimshot)

All seriousness aside, I'll will be developing a gratuitous ribbon for the geohasher(s) who participate in the momentous expedition. As of 2015-03-05, there were 9,691 expeditions in the wiki, as well as about 30 "new reports" that were created but never revisited. I'll be tracking when we reach the threshold; if there are multiple geohashes that day, then all geohashers that day will get the ribbon (though I will figure out the exact #10,000 based on the time the expedition report is created.)

My methodology is:

The number of expedition reports in the Category:Expeditions, Retro coordinates reached, and Retro coordinates not reached categories.
Grind through Category:New report entries. I'll nudge as many as I can into either "planning" or "expedition".

I may also put together a "One Percenter" merit badge for geohashers who have done 100 or more expeditions, although Category:Addicted to geohashing kinda covers that :-)

Feel free to leave any questions or suggestions on the talk page.

Update: After some discussion, retrohash expeditions are being included. This may make it impossible to determine an exact #10,000 as I proposed earlier. Also with the additional categories added in, #10,000 is projected to be reached before the end of April, perhaps as soon as the weekend of the 18th/19th.

Update: 4/20/2015: The total reached 10,000 with the completion of seven expeditions on April 18th:

All the above participants earned the Geohash 10K

by participating in an expedition on the day the community reached 10,000 expeditions (-32, -64) geohash on 2015-04-18.

I'm going to keep tracking, to make note of when we reach the milestone without "retro not reached", as well as without "retro reached".

Update 4/21/2015: I should have been correcting for three (or four?) examples/overlaps instead of two, so the total, including retros, reached 10,000 on April 19th. I apologize for the confusion.

All the above participants earned the Geohash 10K

by participating in an expedition on the day the community reached 10,000 expeditions (49, 10) geohash on 2015-04-19.

There were a few late entries on previous dates, so we'll have to look at the log and see if #10,000 came on 05-27 or a day earlier or later.

Currently there are 10,039 pages tagged "Expeditions"

To get back to the 10,000th we may need to exclude these currently tagged pages:

Currently looks like the 10K was reached on the 25th. Jiml (talk) 20:33, 31 May 2015 (EDT)
