Please add Bündchen to the city-profile of Wißmannsdorf.

Please add Brecht to the city-profile of Wißmannsdorf. Now Brecht is located in Belgium, which is wrong.

Please add Hermesdorf to the city-profile of Wißmannsdorf. Now Hermesdorf is located in Waldbröl, which is wrong.

Done. Couldn't find Bündchen on the map, so no coordinates.

In fact, 4020 Liégi is 4020 Liège :flag-be:

Is it possible to change ?
Thank you.

I just noticed that the countrymark for :flag-it: is currently somewhere deep into Bosnia.

Somebody plottet a lot of incorrect italian locations, like :flag-it: Dublin, :flag-it: Espoo, :flag-it: Barcelona. I removed some of these co-ordinates, hopefully the center point of Italy goes back to where it belongs.

To other citymanagers I would say, never give an incorrect location (wrong country, spelling or postal code) a co-ordinate.

is it supposed to be repaired already? because my italian mark is still in bosnia. (the one you can see in rome actually belongs to the vatican.)

Also here it is still unchanged.
I think something else is going on than this averaging of coordinates. Not only because it didn't seem to move but also because of the following (correct me if I'm wrong though, still learning about how this stuff works) :
Italy has 8.000 cityprofiles, so probably like 20.000 or more locations. The maximum distance an outlaying coordinate can have is 20.000 km due to the size of the earth. Such coordinate would thus move the average in this case by 1 km. The Italian dot is about 500 km to the east, so we're looking for a colony of 500 Italian locations somewhere in the pacific (at 179.99 E). And then there should not be any Italian coordinates west of Italy (cleaning :flag-it: Barcelona and :flag-it: Dublin will not move the dot to the west :wink: ).
I guess that such a pile of locations would have been discovered before already.

Yli, thanks for your work anyway, the database got again a bit cleaner because of it :)

Or maybe it's just jonman's mark which is misplaced.

I see it too in Bosnia.

But if averaging of coordinates is the cause for this, we all should see the mark on the same place (that is, if you have notes in Italy). If some see this in Bosnia and some in Italy then at least we would know for sure there is some other technical error.

Is there anyone who has notes from Italy that does see the marker on a correct place?
