Coor link in Template:Geolinks-US-streetscale etc.
Some time ago I put in a link to the "Other maps" via Template:coor on Template:Geolinks-US-streetscale. For a good reason, I thought. You choose to revert that change. I have now put a link to coor into the heading. If you revert this too, the consequence will be that reverse mapping in WikiProject Geographical coordinates will not work for articles using the Geolinks template. (And it is easy enough to revert or alter. Just change in Template:Geolinks-start.) -- Egil 06:41, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- FYI there is now a new region field that allows specific, targeted map source files to apply for specific regions. I have updated the above templates with region:US. In addition, the default scale is now influences by the type of a point. -- Egil 16:54, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Haven't had a chance to check out these changes you've made, but they sound great. Sorry for axeing the original "other maps" thing; I wanted to nip that in the bud before you went to the trouble of adding it to all the templates since I wasn't quite satisfied with it and thought we should talk more first. I left a note for you explaining why I took it out and suggested a different way which is basically what we have now.
- I like the current way you have integrated your links into our templates; I think it's good to have a few very standard things linked directly, like we have with the mapquest, google, terraserver, and topozone. For everything else, your page is a great, flexible resource. In fact, this might actually be a nicer way to link to your page than links directly from coordinates ala ISBN?
- In other news, I'm thinking about suggesting to Ramsey that we move these links out of the external links section and up to the city box for the city pages. I really think they're useful enough to deserve more attention, but we'll see if Mav can be convinced. --Chinasaur 19:19, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Nelumbo
If you decide you want to get back into editing, would you please do something about Nelumbo? It has received four edits since you started it back in September, but none have actually accomplished much. It'd be nice to have at least a complete sentence or two. -- Cyrius|✎ 04:47, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Unicode template
Hi,
I see from your recent comments on Template Talk:IPA that you were the originator of the Unicode template. There's been some recent discussion on Template Talk:Unicode and Template Talk:Polytonic to the effect that the Unicode template doesn't pick up a lot of unicode characters, and the Polytonic template, although designed specifically for Greek, is actually better in this respect. Do you have any thoughts? rossb 09:56, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Use of color in probability distribution plots
Hi. I've moved your comment from my talk page to Template talk:Probability distribution#Use of color, which is where most of the discussion has been taking place recently. I've posted an intial reply there. If you know of a set of "safe" colors, could you bring it to everyone's attention? Thanks, --MarkSweep 02:09, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Amenophis vandal
From the links you provided it looks liek most of the vandal's work was on the 19th. He did return on the 21st but was intercepted by Joyous. She would most most likely know more about the vandal from that point onward than I. Also, thank you for your good work in the fight against vandalism. -JCarriker 09:28, Apr 25, 2005 (UTC)
