Well just out of curiosity why don't you use the add new location form instead of making poor Steve put your data in. You ain't never gonna learn

That page is completely unrelated to the user map, Jim. I'm not sure I see the point of the wiki page, it just seems to be duplication and extra effort to maintain. Of course, the idea of a wiki is that everyone maintains it anyway...

[William Grimsley]

Well, if everyone maintains it, then how do I add my site onto that page?

Steve,

I'm confused. Jim's link was not to a Wiki page but to an application form with a Submit button at the bottom. I suppose the question is who is it submitted to?

Yes, I know. The "that page" I was referring to was the link in the original post, which is unrelated to the map page that Jim linked to. Submissions to the map page that Jim linked to get processed by me, these days. Instructions for getting added to the wiki page are on the wiki page itself. There are about 1100 sites on the map page (though it's probably due for a prune) and about 360 on the wiki page, presumably most of which are also on the map page.

Hi Steve,

Sorry for the confusion.

Ok, I've requested for an account on the Cumulus Wiki now, and I will be shortly adding my site to the cumulus users list.

Thanks,

William

Ah, right. Thought I was going loopy!

Didn't we have a purge of the map page a few months ago? I'm surprised another is due so soon.

OK, you're in. Try not to break anything

Ah, but things have happened since then. A lot of entries got lost and I bunged a load back in from various sources.

So when we have some spare time another purge is on the cards. Not too bad if the world is broken up into lots of squares.
