Renaming graticules
Thanks for all the work you are doing on cleaning up the Wiki. However, renaming graticules is a bit of a big deal, with several steps that need to happen to avoid problems, and a few steps that help avoid confusion and misunderstanding. Take a look at Geo_Hashing:Community_Portal/Renaming_suggestions for more information Jiml 05:36, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- Understood. I assume this is in reference to the Utah graticules I made into redirect pages yesterday. While working on the Utah map, I found seven graticules that had two different pages with different names referencing the same grat. (I've found instances of this all over the U.S.A., I think that in the past people or bots created new grat pages rather than renaming old ones.) In all instances, both graticule pages were virgin, inactive, no edits except for bots. I made redirects out of the pages that fewer other pages linked to. --Dvdllr 13:08, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- Getting rid of duplicates is good. The problem is that the "All Graticules" subpages and "coordinates" page should point at the "official" page. Jiml 15:26, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
- All is well, I just checked and made sure. The duplicate grats that are now Redirect pages were those that are not on the All Graticules pages. --Dvdllr 15:35, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
