Geocoordinates

[edit]

I'm working on adding geocoordinates where they're marked as needed. However, I'm removing library systems from the list unless the article has a focus on a main branch. Per WP:GEO#Usage guidelines, businesses and organizations with multiple locations generally don't get coordinates. It suggests "coords for individual locations in a table may be appropriate," but there are probably better ways we can use our time. --BDD (talk) 00:45, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

2017

[edit]

Just did a cursory glace and removed orphaned links, all libraries with coordinates that had coordinates requested to put in. Removed some of the number statistics as they were 8+ years old. Most of these lists are going on a decade old, I'd wager that 95% of this page is out of date.. For instance the Library page itself from 2009 said it needed more refs. I looked, and in 2009 it had 29. Now it has 171. I'll be going through the next few days to see what I can chop down, don't be anxious if the page size goes way down. Let me know if I'm stepping out of bounds. SEMMENDINGER (talk) 04:10, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Still new at this. Just noticed at the top saying the bot hasn't been run in 7 years. Can we just... blank the page? What I've been through so far is awfully mis-classed. I'll be going off the actual clean up page instead. SEMMENDINGER (talk) 04:18, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it's time to delete this page.

[edit]

The top of the page notes that "WolterBot has not been run since 2010", and includes a link to the current tool. I've gone ahead and added a link to the new tool in a new section at the bottom of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Libraries/Assessment page. It would appear that there is no further use of this page except to confuse newcomers. LibraryGeek (talk) 04:16, 17 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
