These three notes of mine used to have the correct dot (the one for Rødbyhavn), but now for some reason they've moved to the unknown location in Denmark:

These notes have now the location name Lolland (which is a island of Denmark - see wiki), why not use Rødbyhavn as name of the town ?

I have a request. Can my London notes (example) be moved to this version of the London profile? The location is outside the City of London, which is the profile they're in now.

I actually do not understand the existence of a region City of London profile, as it is wholly contained in Greater London.

Lolland is also a municipality on that island. The postcode still specifies Rødby, as there is no specific postcode for Rødbyhavn. I expect the city manager that changed this did not know it.
My NIG stats have finally disappeared. My EBTST stats are still available.

Yep, I used the name of the municipality (this used to be a big depate in the Finnish forum regarding the Finnish system) and specified the place with the post code and the comment field.

I have assigned these 4970 Lolland notes to Rødbyhavn. The only problem is that if you want to enter notes from Rødby with the same municipality-rules it's impossible.

Thankyou. But I don't understand, why would that be impossible?

It should be in the profile of Insel Poel

Because Rødbyhavn and Rødby share the same postalcode, It's impossible to assigne 4970 Lolland to both Rødbyhavn and Rødby.
It's now assigned to Rødbyhavn, so if you enter 4970 Lollland as belonging to Rødby it will automaticly go to Rødbyhavn :D

Hmm, 23999 Timmendorf strand (where you entered a note) is in the profile of Insel Poel, whereas 23669 Timmendorf Strand (where you didn't enter a note but which you seem to refer to) is in the profile of Timmendorfer Strand. Since Insel Poel (including Timmendorf - officially no Strand here as far as I can see) has post code 23999 and Timmendorfer Strand has 23669, 23669 Timmendorf Strand looks like a typo for Timmendorfer Strand, and not like Timmendorf was meant. Do you know more about that?

It was placed in the profile of Insel Poel shortly after my last message.

On the western part of Insel Poel there is a small village called Timmendorf and where the continuing road meets the sea there is Timmendorf Strand. It's some time ago, but I'm pretty sure there was even a village sign saying Timmendorf Strand (if it wasn't there, I probably would have entered the note as Timmendorf).
On Google-maps there are only a few roads that refer to Timmendorf Strand.
The postal code I used, 23999, shouldn't have caused the problems, since its the code for Insel Poel

edit:
In the picture, Timmendorf is the village to the right, Timmendorf Strand is to the left (with the harbour).
