Please avoid using alternatives to the official algorithm unless there is a compelling reason to do so in your locale. By using an alternate algorithm where it is unwarranted, you effectively fragment your graticule and thereby reduce the number of people who might come to the same meetup. If your region is an island or a small country without open borders where an alternative algorithm would be appropriate, please work towards a clear consensus with others in your graticule on the best alternative method for your region. The following method is only a suggestion, which may not be suitable for all areas requiring an alternate algorithm.
Usage
Simply add {{Alternate algorithm}} to any page to include the above announcement.
