Please change the location from "04828 Machern" to "04827 Lübschützer Teiche".
i can change the location from machern to lübschützer teiche, but at least according to http://www.postdirekt.de/plzserver/ the zip code 04828 should be the correct one.

thanks for all the work out there :D
As neither "Leipzig-Bayrischer Platz" nor "Leipzig-Willy-Brandt-Platz" are valid locations you should just change the location to "Leipzig" and use the correct zip-code:

Leipzig, Bayrischer Platz (bzw. Grünewaldstraße):
04103 Leipzig (this will be the right dot of Leipzig)

Leipzig, Willy-Brandt-Platz:
04109 Leipzig (this will be the left dot of Leipzig)

Now you should have both dots :wink:
hmm, as far as i can see the area of 04103 leipzig is mostly in the eastern dot of leipzig, but has two places where it extends into the western dot. all the notes which i have currently registered either in 04103 leipzig-willy-brandt-platz or in 04103 leipzig-bayrischer platz have (again according to http://www.postdirekt.de/plzserver/) have the correct zip code (i.e. were entered in one of the corners of 04103 leipzig that belong to the western dot). (the ones entered in 04103 leipzig-willy-brandt-platz may have the postal address 04109 leipzig, but the area of leipzig main station belongs to the area of 04103 leipzig.) i can’t change the zip codes as they are already correct, so what should i do except change the location to make it clear to which dot they belong? (in the moment all the notes from both locations are correctly assigned to coordinates in 04103 leipzig, but are not assigned to the correct dot.)

The location for Willich has been changed, but for the worse. It is now lat=51.2372 long=6.4925 which is even further away from Willich.
Wikipedia (if that's any guideline) puts it here.

the city profiles of leipzig-bayrischer platz and leipzig-willy-brandt-platz have to be merged with leipzig.
I solved those 3 :flag-de: requests together with jonman.

3 :flag-ie: requests are still open:

the city profile of caherdavin, limerick has to be merged with limerick.
tulla and clooney have to get new city profiles (belonging to clare).

In English, the national subdivisions of Switzerland aren't called "Cantonese", but "Cantons". (Seems to be correct in the translations, though.)
(Somewhat fixed, but not in the drop-down menu.)

Also on the English version, the Dutch municipality Leiden is Google-translated to Lead.
My NIG stats have finally disappeared. My EBTST stats are still available.

The same is true in other languages. :flag-de: Führen.
It is translated in all languages, but I can't say if those languages have their own name for Leiden. But I thought we would not translate city names?

I also see that Den Haag is translated to Hague in :flag-uk: . If it has to be translated than it should be The Hague. And it is called "Haag" in :flag-de: which is also incorrect.

I was in Waltersdorf, but somewhere in the Zittauer Gebirge, not in Brandenburg nor Thüringen.
Already many thanks to add Budyšin and Kamjenc to the database, and to merge them with Bautzen and Kamenz, respectively. I like strange languages :mrgreen:

It is my opinion that the city of Bunschoten and Spakenburg should be merged. The entrysign at the citylimits has both names below each others.

The distance of this hit can't be right. The main center of post code 10115 is around this area and 13051 is here (major shopping center). The distance between these locations is much more than just 2km, so either coordinate must be incorrect.
