Which brings me to the following question: How should Norway be devided? For me, it's perfectly fine as it is, but some might argue smaller locations should be regrouped under the municipality, which in this case is Midtre Gauldal. In brief, should Norway be devided as Belgium or the Netherlands, or like Germany?
Because the villages are more spread, entering notes under municipalities would leave gaps in the dotmap.
Therefor I would suggest to leave the city profiles apart.

coordinates and administrative divisions are different things - the latter do not necessarily influence the former. if a note is entered in a small location which is only part of a municipality, that location can have its own coordinates regardless of whether it has its own profile or is attached to the profile of the municipality. someone just has to enter the coordinates, then the dotmap will be correct ;)

So, true to our principles, it's up to the Norwegians to decide. Any Norwegians in this thread :-) ?

First of all, I want to thank the person who has given the coordinates to Kalbach, Oberkalbach and Oberndorf (Jossgrund)!

During my holidays I've also entered notes in :flag-cz: Broumov, a small town near the German border.
I thought I was the first tracker to enter notes in this village. After I had entered the notes, I've checked the city profile of Broumov and apparentely my notes ended up in another Broumow town which is situated in another part of the Czech Republic.

Is it possible to make a new city profile for :flag-cz: Broumov with postal code 34815?
Coordinates are about 49°53′33″ N, 12°34′48″ E.

Many thanks in advance!

Something is wrong with the city profile of Berlin-Schönefeld Airport. It says there are only 51 notes entered but when you take a look at the list of visitors this should be a lot more. This is the third day I check this so I don't think it has anything to do with updating.

I've tried to figure out what's wrong with this profile.

I still don't know the reason, but now the cityprofile has a new ID: Flughafen Berlin-Schönefeld - still 51 notes, where there should be 500 :roll:

Fixed. There is a separate counter for notes entered in each city, and for some reason it was out of sync.

The first is done,

For Vilniaus, they mean indeed Vilnius, but I was looking at the postcode (15148) and a search gave me"Skirgiškių k. sodininkų bendrija, Ažulaukė, 15148, Vilniaus r., Vilniaus" So for the moment I changed the city porfile name in Ažulaukė, That is indeed in County Vilnius

A quick look at the City profile Vilnius, I See more postcodes (and dots) outside the City Vilnius (but in the County) That is the reason that I did't merge it jet with Vilnius.

Here is something wrong, too: no first appearance date, no last note entered... :roll:
