Name error for Banaba, Kiribati.

[edit]

{{geodata-check}}

The following name fix is needed for "Banana": This should be "Banaba". Google Earth and Maps has this spelled incorrectly.

I think you are confusing the settlement Banana with the island Banaba.Andrewgprout (talk) 22:14, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Agree that Banana is an actual village on the island of Kirimati (see this source, for instance) and that Banaba Island is a different place. I have, however, tweaked the coordinates somewhat (per OpenStreetMap and other indications), since there was clearly not a settlement at the location they specified.

My error folks, thanks for the correction. The offset coordinates threw me a bit, but Deor has corrected that. Gothicchicken (talk) 02:34, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
