How to create a wiki page for your MHP

Fill in this template and link the respective MHP name in the table above.

How to mark your MHP in the map

Description of procedure			Examples
Step 1	Convert your geographical coordinates into GoogleMaps compatibel coordinates using one of the websites below: http://wikimapia.org http://www.ralf-wessels.de/Beispiele/Geocoding.html		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.
	for an existing MHP		Add 6.577778, 38.697306, name of the hydrosite 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E into the Wikitext
	for a planned MHP		Include (_grey) infront of the line that you add.  For example, add (_grey) 6.577778, 38.697306, name of the hydrosite 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E into the Wikitext.
