Upcoming locations, plans

2009-10-02 (friday)

... is in the Schönbuch forest, close to the Saurücken and the paved way between Entringen and Bebenhausen, on a gravel track. An uncommonly easy forest location for biking, but a little bit remote if you come by public transport. Closest train station is at Entringen, another bus stop at Hagelloch, both in a distance of about 3.5 km.

I'll probably go by bike during the afternoon. If someone else aims at this hash, drop me a note. --Ekorren 13:44, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Old and deprecated naming talk

This page should be renamed/joined to/with Karlsruhe, Germany by largest city policy. Karlsruhe is only partly in this graticule but it is more than double the size of Pforzheim. Karlsruhe isn't the largest city in the bordering graticule so there is no name collision. I created Karlsruhe because that graticule was not in All Graticules and discovered Pforzheim only later.

I would object. Naming a graticule after Karlsruhe makes its location ambiguous, and the city is not large enough (compared to its surrounding cities, e.g. Mannheim) to name the two graticules after it, making it a split city. lyx suggested naming it Karlsruhe (South). I don't care strongly, but I'd opt for Pforzheim. -- Relet 13:05, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
