I think the map is pointing at the wrong at an incorrect square.

My hat is off to you.
I saw this pop up on community projects and took a look. At first I thought it was a pet project that had to be updated in some cryptic and specific way. Then I updated a few buildings and refreshed. All I can say now is good on you. This may be the single most useful global wiki resource since the suburb map. Get some boiler plate description on this and I would be surprised if it does not end up with a permanent quick link on the main page. -- Albert Schwan Sunday, 14 October 2012
- Ever since finishing work on this, Charles has dropped down in a gutter, passed out and hasn't come out since, and I can't even look at the page code without crying just a little bit, so I'm afraid it's currently on hold. Any suggestions for that boiler plate description are more than welcome though. And thanks for all the positive feedback :) PB&J 10:54, 14 October 2012 (BST)

Custom Map Requests
I figured this is what people will want next. Post your request here with the suburb numbers you would like included in your custom map. And remember, more suburbs means less page content. Please be patient, we'll do our best to get them done in a timely manner. -Charles Whipplebotum 18:33, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
- Note: we accept suburb names and special requests as well, but would like to remind you that specific maps are to be as small as possible, to prevent any lag. Thank you for understanding. PB&J 21:15, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
