excellentdude and I are a little unhappy that our lovingly handcrafted neighbor links for Michigan and Wisconsin were automagically replaced. Automatic generation of grat pages is a wonderful thing, but for pages that are being actively maintained by humans, the humans should perhaps be deferred to. As another example, the neighbor link on the Tōkyō page to the Mount Fuji grat used to read "Fuji-san". This was a deliberate decision to use a perhaps less formal (and more Japanese) name in the neighbor link, not an error.

It would be nice if the bot could distinguish between these kinds of cases and the ones where the link name is just wrong, but I realize that this is a hard problem. --starbird 20:54, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

I see your point. Still, why not give the graticules the same name everywhere? I.e. - change the name of the Mount Fuji graticule to Fuji-san (on the All Graticules page, and have it called like this by all its neighbours. I haven't had a look at Michigan and Wisconsin yet. -- relet 22:11, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
