And I was hoping this would have data in it. :-(

Well aren't you glad I at least put off deleting it :p --joannac 04:27, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Seriously, I was just about to create something similar, as soon as I'd ironed out the problem currently being discussed on Talk:Virgin Graticule. It looks as if Thomcat has abandoned it, but that's no reason why I can't take it back. I'm going to restore the data and continue. -Robyn 04:31, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Heh. Precisely the reason I kept it. I thought it would come in useful one day, and I was right?
I suggest you sort it by latitude, maybe, and put each one in a different section? That way others (i.e. me) can help you compile the list. --joannac 04:37, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
I was hoping to enlist the help of the person who does Maps and Statistics to do something cool with it, and/or integrate the data into one of those maps, so it doesn't end up looking like All Graticules. It most definitely requires sorting, and by latitude is better than by date. -Robyn 04:40, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Well, he's online. Come online and propose it? Or do you want me to do it? --joannac 04:43, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

This looks like a job best done automatically. You actually just need to parse Category:Coordinates reached from the beginning and pick the first one for each graticule. This would also automatically replace the expedition in case an earlier one (ninja or poorly categorized) turns up from the depths of the wiki. Dawidi could probably easily turn it into an external map, while making a wiki list would rather be a job for reletbot or aperfectbot. --Ekorren 11:56, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
