==Europe Category==
 
Danatar, please don't put graticules in the Europe category. Just put them in the country category. The countries are already in the Europe category. See [[Creating a Graticule Page#Categories]]. -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 15:10, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 
 
 
:More than 150 pages can't be wrong, so I was just continueing. The rule from [[Creating a Graticule Page]] is much more recent, even though it is your rule. [[User:Danatar|Danatar]] 15:36, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 
 
 
Also, the part of the All Graticules page in parentheses is supposed to be the graticule name, not an extended description of the graticule. -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 15:26, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

::The rule is actually older than that, it's just hidden in obscure documentation, like [[Wiki Stuff]], I think. I didn't make it up. It's also common sense of classification. There's no point having France classed in Europe if all the France pages are already in Europe. Sorry for accusing you of doing it, though. I must have misread the page history. And yeah, a lot of pages can be wrong, because one person starts doing it and then everyone clones that page. Someone, I think it might have been Thomcat, went through manually a few months ago and took all the US pages out of North America. Now it's Europe's turn. -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 16:16, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Tomorrow's 48,8 hash is only 15 minutes walking distance from Pforzheim main station, but on the aerial photo it looks a lot like a restricted area to me. If you are going to try it I'll join (I'm totally willing to share the virgin graticule), otherwise I'll rather wait for a nearer place where I can go by bike and maybe in a week with less obligations. Will also leave a note to Ilpadre. --[[User:Ekorren|Ekorren]] 15:10, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

== [[User:Hermann|Hermann]]'s geohash script ==
 
 
 
Hi Danatar. [[user:Psud|Psud]] here. I host the data that [[User:Hermann|Hermann]]'s script works off, and it turns out that for some reason 2008-09-01 is missing. I'm guessing that's the cause of the trouble you had with the script. I'm fixing it now if you want to give it another go. --[[User:Polysylabic Pseudonym|Psud]] 13:45, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Naming Norwegian Graticules ==
 
 
 
Hi - I think you've gone through and names Norwegian graticules after the municipalities (kommunar) that happen to be there.  However, I had them named after the actual towns (or cities) that are in them.  Here is a list of all the "urban centres" in Norway: http://www.ssb.no/emner/02/01/10/beftett/tab-2008-06-20-01.html  We should use those, because, for instance, you renamed the Mo i Rana graticule to Hemnes.  Well, Hemnes is not a town, it's a region (1489 square kilometres).  Mo i Rana, however, is a town (population 17750).  Therefore, the graticule should be named Mo i Rana, not Hemnes. I'm going to work to change them back, but please speak up if you disagree with me! [[User:AshleyMorton|AshleyMorton]] 14:44, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 
:No problem, you know better how it really is in Norway. It seems I misunderstood the concept of "kommunar". - [[User:Danatar|Danatar]] 16:49, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 
 
 
== 47, 9 ==
 
 
 
Hi, thanks for drawing my attention to the page that I totally stuffed up! It should be all fixed now. I went to the hash this morning. Switzerland is beautiful![[User:Kate|Kate]] 14:26, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 
 
 
==[[Bicycle geohashes]] page==
 
It has been suggested (see [[Talk:Bicycle geohashes]]) that the name of that page is a bit misleading -- the name implies it is a list of geohashes which meet the requirements for the [[bicycle geohash achievement]], but actually it's a list of all expeditions, whether the coordinates were reached or not, that involved a bicycle for all or just some of the journey.  I have re-written the introduction to that page to make it clearer, but would appreciate knowing if you have an opinion about moving the page to something like "cycling geohashers" or similar.  I'm consulting the people who cycle most!  Thanks for your time.  -- [[User:Benjw|Benjw]] 21:00, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 
 
 
== GPS ==
 
 
 
If you're still after a GPS device, contact [[User:Ekorren|Ekorren]]. I think he still has one for sale. (Also would you mind putting a comment on my talk page with the advice you got from the [[2008-10-06_49_10|bike store]]? I'm trying to collect bicycle maintenance advice :) ) [[User:Ephphatha|Ephphatha]] 09:27, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Würzburg

Congratulations on taking the graticule! Me and srs0 were hoping to make the first hash when we head over next year in May. But I will gladly settle for being able to meet another geohasher. How much longer are you at the University?

Maybe if we're lucky, you won't have visited every graticule in the area! Happy geohashing! Thepiguy 16:45, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

I forgot to ask, what is it that you're writing you thesis on? If you don't mind me prodding into your life. :D Thepiguy 04:45, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm coming to Europe in a fortnight. I expect to be in your vicinity around Geohashing Day. We will rock the world. -Robyn 17:42, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
I'm looking forward to meeting you, but it really depends on which day you are here. The last part of my final exam is on 2009-05-19 and 2009-05-20, so I won't be able to go on an expedition on those days and on Geohashing Day I'll probably still be very drunk. - Danatar 07:48, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
