Good job on the LightCycle. Can you replace this with something that actually looks like a cherry? It's probably the ugliest icon on the wiki. -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 01:55, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

It has been suggested (see [[Talk:Bicycle geohashes]]) that the name of that page is a bit misleading -- the name implies it is a list of geohashes which meet the requirements for the [[bicycle geohash achievement]], but actually it's a list of all expeditions, whether the coordinates were reached or not, that involved a bicycle for all or just some of the journey.  I have re-written the introduction to that page to make it clearer, but would appreciate knowing if you have an opinion about moving the page to something like "cycling geohashers" or similar.  I'm consulting the people who cycle most!  Thanks for your time.  -- [[User:Benjw|Benjw]] 21:00, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Revision as of 21:00, 21 April 2009

Spelling

Nürnberg, Germany or Nuremburg, Germany? One is listed on the All Graticules page, the other is the live data. Finally, there should be a redirect from the less preferable one. Please advise, and/or change. Thanks! --Thomcat 13:51, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing :) Since München is already listed as Munich, I decided to use the English name, Nuremberg, for Nürnberg as well. Added the redirect from Nürnberg, Germany and corrected the All Graticules page. Also added some missing redirects from the "lat,lon" format pages. --Dawidi 14:05, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

Bicycle Geohash

Congratulations on your Bicycle Geohash! I've moved you to the top of the table since you've outdone me. TomViza 00:06, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

ooh, nice... I didn't know these were supposed to be ordered & ranked by distance. Dawidi 12:22, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Regensburg

Hey there, fellow Regensburger. :) Sorry, haven't been around this site in recent time. Yes, I'd definitely be up for a Saturday meetup if the hashpoint is within city limits (or public transport limits...I've got no bike, unfortunately, so my options are few). Let's hope for good coordinates in the new few weeks! Snafoolery 23:56, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

new template

-> Template:Déjà_vu_geohash

yay :) Thanks, relet! --Dawidi 07:26, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Germany neu-migration

Very cool RC device, and quite maneuverable! Not sure if any of the pics came out well, but if so I'll upload and ping here. Funny to look back at the spelling query, which has since changed again. Nice meeting you! --Thomcat 20:57, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Dawidi I really enjoyed your reports of RC aircraft hashes. When I saw the picture of your last adventure I thought it was the V22 Osprey we see here in Crestview, Florida all the time. These battery powered aircraft are really interesting. I need to find out more about them. --Bos 22:14, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Great Weather!

I enjoyed reading your report about your expedition on 2009-04-03. I was in 2009-04-03 48 11 on the same day and it was just such a beautiful day!--Zb 18:24, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, that was an awesome day. I'm afraid if the weather continues to be that good, I will spend a lot of time on geohashing expeditions this year :) I also was excited to recognize the ultralight in your photo as Fresh Breeze's new two-seated XCitor trike... last time I checked, it was still awaiting its airworthiness test, or something like that. --dawidi 20:04, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
I just put another picture of the guy into the page Image talk:Zb 2009-04-03 10.jpg --Zb 20:53, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Icons

Good job on the LightCycle. Can you replace this with something that actually looks like a cherry? It's probably the ugliest icon on the wiki. -Robyn 01:55, 21 April 2009 (UTC) Virgin geohash.PNG

Bicycle geohashes page

It has been suggested (see Talk:Bicycle geohashes) that the name of that page is a bit misleading -- the name implies it is a list of geohashes which meet the requirements for the bicycle geohash achievement, but actually it's a list of all expeditions, whether the coordinates were reached or not, that involved a bicycle for all or just some of the journey. I have re-written the introduction to that page to make it clearer, but would appreciate knowing if you have an opinion about moving the page to something like "cycling geohashers" or similar. I'm consulting the people who cycle most! Thanks for your time. -- Benjw 21:00, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
