Don't change anything here:
#1 - EBT has correct info, it's a village in Bloke municipality called just "Topol" (Topol pri Begunjah is a different village in Cerknica municipality)
#2 and #3 - EBT can handle places with the same name in different municipalities, so there's no need for the info in parentheses as it's not part of the official name. You can see which one is meant on the city profile page if necessary.
You are right with #1. I used only Google Maps and I thought this "Topol" is "Topol pri Begunjah". But despite that it could be renamed to "Topol (Bloke)" to avoid notes being displaced with the first one or with "Topol pri Medvodah". That was anyway the reason I proposed all this renames (#1, #2, #3). There are already Slovenian city profiles on EBT with the Municipality name in brackets despite they are not official.

What you wrote are NOT municipalities but administrative units (or municipalities in Yugoslav times). Spelling corrections are correct (to be done), but Puščava is in Mokronog - Trebelno municipality, Loka pri Mengšu is in Mengeš municipality and Podolševa is already correctly placed in Solčava municipality, so just rename it.
You are right. By mistake I used AUs instead of Municipalities. Again: I used only Google Maps. :-) So here's the correct list again:
Puscava 15 8230 Mokronog should be "Puščava" (belongs to Municipality Mokronog - Trebelno);
Loka pri mengšu should be "Loka pri Mengšu" (belongs to Municipality Mengeš);
Podolseva should be "Podolševa" (belongs to Municipality Solčava).

That's not always correct. Sometimes if you enter notes from one village, they're placed in another city-profile.

But you can see which "Ribnica" is meant where when you look at this list (if nothing was added)?
That's why normally the name of the region (or when they're in the same region: the name of the municipality) is added into the name of the city-profile. It's already added to the name of the other city-profile (Ribnica na Pohorju), so why wouldn't you add it to the other city-profile too?
I totaly agree with that. That' s why I proposed changes. Only an example you've chosen is unfortunately not accurate: "Ribnica na Pohorju" is an official name "by nature" so it doesn't need any addons.

But because the International Airports have their own city-profiles, we can leave this profile as it is.

Because it's so close to the Greenwich Meridian, the "0.757234" is East.

Hello!
I was in Bulgaria and I inserted some bills from there but the system misrecognize the locations. I always like to use the name of the cities in their original language so maybe it's because I wrote in cyrillic? or is something with the postcode?

these notes are from Ruse/Русе http://it.eurobilltracker.com/profile/?city=134123" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
http://it.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=132327259" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

http://it.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=132327527" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
but the system locates them in a new city

while these notes are from Shumen/Шумен http://it.eurobilltracker.com/profile/?region=4253" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
http://it.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=132327344" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
http://it.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=132327345" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
but system locates them...in Athens!!

A :flag-be: problem.

Two weeks ago my daughter went to play some football in Saint-Remy 6460.

http://fi.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=131992208" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
http://fi.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=131992207" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

When I first entered the notes (without the Ht) they did get a dot, but it was placed where Saint-Remy (Liége) 4672 is situated.
After checking with the table of La Poste I added the (Ht.) in the name...the incorrect spot dissappeared... but until now no new and correct spot has not appeared.

And of course the Saint-Remy (Ht.) should ba a sub-entity of Chimay 6460.

Thanking in advance for the correction,

AKVS
