Welcome!

Hi Marcius! Welcome to the sport and congratulations on your first expedition! :) I noticed that you have a few questions.. don't be shy to ask, either anywhere in the wiki (usually people will read them and try to answer) or in our IRC channel for an immediate feedback. Graticules are named after the largest named population centre they contain, not necessarily the most central place or the place which always describes them best - which is why Vantaa, Finland is currently named such. If you think that, according to this criterion, it should have another name, please discuss that with the other locals (Kliment and such). It's not a strict rule, but one that makes it easy to decide how even remote graticules should be named.

I have another request. Could you include the date and graticule of your expedition in the names of future photos that you upload? The format does not matter, but it instantly makes the file names more unique.. otherwise the names like "I've been there.jpg" and "Coordinates.jpg" may lead to collisions. -- relet 18:24, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
