From Geohashing
Revision as of 18:20, 17 April 2012 by imported>Crox (Embedded maps -> fixed)

Hi! Sorry, I'm new here so I'm not sure this is the right way to do this kind of thing. Someone at the IRC said you were the one to contact :-) The problem: My brother is trying to sign up for geohashing but gets the error

Set $wgShowExceptionDetails = true; at the bottom of LocalSettings.php to show detailed debugging information.

when he requests the confirmation code. It seems it's some kind of internal error with the wiki?? Hope you can help! Thanks very much!! User:lizwiz 25 March 2012

To-do list

  • update All Graticules with any stray pages reletbot did this I assume?
  • Map NSW and Victoria
  • Tag images -- benjw's job!
  • Fix retro hashes done
  • Clear out Category:Tagged_for_deletion YAY!
  • Fix inconsistent Swedish grats (mainly around Stockholm) -- ekorren's job! and he did it months ago.
  • Tag expedition pages properly (Coords reached, Coords not reached, meetup on ..., meetup in ..., retro, failed, etc)
  • Check all the day pages are well-formed
  • Does File:Boatless.PNG have the error message we were seeing on the history page? Jiml 00:57, 9 July 2011 (EDT)
  • as per irc discussion: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgEmailConfirmToEdit --Crox 01:50, 13 October 2011 (EDT)

Embedded maps

I don't have IRC right now, but it seems the maps are broken again - eg. Berlin,_Germany does not show the Berlin graticule, and since it is >30W, it should always show some kind of geohash. The <30W templates also still show a blue square whenever the geohashes are not published yet. I know it's a code and a wiki thing, but maybe you can trigger whoever helped with the templates in the past. -- relet 08:21, 17 April 2012 (EDT) --

For the record, that was apparently caused by the template "dow" returning an empty string for 2012|04|16, as seen on User:Crox/Test. It was solved when Zigdon fixed the value returned for that day. --Crox 14:20, 17 April 2012 (EDT)
