HOW TO...
...create a wiki page for your MHP?
Fill in this template and link the respective MHP name in the table above.
... mark your MHP in the map?
| Description of procedure | Examples | |
|
Step 1 |
Convert your geographical coordinates into GoogleMaps compatible coordinates using one of the websites below: |
If the coordinates of your MHP were 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E, the converted values would be 6.577778, 38.697306. |
|
Step 2 |
Insert the converted coordinates into the "Wikitext" of the map followed by the name of the MHP site plus the geographic coordinates. |
|
|
|
Add 6.577778, 38.697306, name of the hydrosite 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E into the Wikitext | |
|
|
Include (_grey) infront of the line that you add. | |
