Cahir
Hi. You might considering reverting some of what you did to the Cahir article. It looks very disjointed now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Seighean (talk • contribs) 03:14, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
- Don't see why. Putting images on the left and an infobox on the right means the text is squeezed and that looks poor. In fact the images should probably go in a gallery. Rich257 (talk) 09:06, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Co-ordinates
Sorry - didn't realise it was a problem - my source uses 5 decimal places as standard. Does rounding not affect the location? пﮟოьεԻ 57 09:22, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- My source has four decimal places and I round to three. This does affect the position but only to half the precision. So three decimal places being about 60m (at 50°N) this means it could be 30m from where your source says, which seems acceptable for the location of a village (and in some cases parish) that stretches over 500m or more.

Thanks for improving my map of the Nene Valley Railway. Until now the dozen or so maps I have edited have all used the LUECKE icon to indicate continuation, so thanks for the arrows. I haven't yet found an english discussion of what constitutes a minor station, do you have an example? Scillystuff (talk) 23:18, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
- The arrow part of the route diagrams might be new, certainly I think it looks better than the interruption LUECKE symbol.
- No, I don't know what makes a minor station and what doesn't. Sometimes it's clear: if you know the station has/had a single platform and an old carriage for a shelter then I reckon it's a minor one. I would suggest using your judgement and in any case I don't think it's very critical. Rich257 (talk) 09:12, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
