PISA-caching

I think I know what you mean and I also find it interesting, but it would be hard to find such places, without your know-how or a good source on the internet. I did a very tiny research starting here: Hallstatt culture - Wikipedia. There I learned about Golasecca culture - Wikipedia (named after excavations at Golasecca in the province of Varese) and Canegrate culture - Wikipedia (named after finds in Canegrate in Lombardy). But both are not mentioned on the Wikipedia page you mentioned (Type site - Wikipedia). So, IF there were a website with many more cultures, it would be much easier.

I agree to (almost all of) the above and wanted to add: There are 4 aspects that make WMing so interesting for me: 1. I just love to teach others about things they didn't know, f.e. Chronograms - A Waymarking.com Category 2. I find it interesting to show others things and places, that you wouldn't find in typical tourist guides like https://Waymarking.com/waymarks/wmH91P 3. I love collecting things (pez dispensers and other things in real life, categories and regions/countries in WMing) 4. It's amazing to learn things about my hometown (and the rest of world) even after living here for almost 60 years, f.e. without WMing I wouldn't know that there is a Big Brothers Big Sisters branch in Vienna, Austria.

Talking about bugs: I think I just found another one, which is not very important/annoying, but I thought I should mention it. I search for the "Nearest Waymarks" of any WM. If I click on any profile name in the results list, it leads to f.e. https://Waymarking.com/users/profile.aspx?f=1&guid=d4c8eca0-ea01-4d21-bfdb-3c4f18d35dac&lat=45.1612&lon=10.798267&t=6 which includes the coordinates of my prior search. So far, no problem, but: If I then open the category grid, and click on some of the categories that are already covered, there seem to be no WMs to find, if the coordinates that are still in the URL are too far from where the posted/visited WM of that category is. In my example just click on the very first category icon for "Bloggers" on https://Waymarking.com/users/profile.aspx?f=1&guid=d4c8eca0-ea01-4d21-bfdb-3c4f18d35dac&lat=45.1612&lon=10.798267&t=6&full=False&mypage=3. Also, if I open the "waymark lists" tab in the profile page, the coordinates are still in the URL and clicking on any of the numbers will either give all the waymarks, part of them or nothing at all. Example: The 200+ WMs of the category "Austrian and Swiss National Heritage Sites" on https://Waymarking.com/users/profile.aspx?f=1&guid=d4c8eca0-ea01-4d21-bfdb-3c4f18d35dac&lat=45.1612&lon=10.798267&t=6&full=False&mypage=2 Like I said: Not a big problem, but maybe easy to get rid of.

Yesterday I made my first waymark after less than 2 weeks of abstinence, and WOW, what an improvement! Thank you so much, bootron.

OMG. That really hurts my eyes! It's "WIENER", not "WEINER". "Wien" is the german name of my hometown. You call it Vienna. And "Wein" means wine. It's like I would write Taxes instead of Texas. I recommend to read Vienna sausage - Wikipedia. There you will learn that Germans also call these sausages "Wiener", while we Austrians call them "Frankfurter". And you might want to read a translation of a part of the German Wikipedia entry: The dispute over the origin of sausages is an old one: in Frankfurt am Main, Frankfurter sausages have allegedly been known since the Middle Ages. On the other hand, Johann Georg Lahner (1772-1845), a butcher who immigrated from Frankfurt to Vienna, had great success there with a variety of sausage called "Frankfurter," which spread steadily from there in the course of the 19th century. Lahner came from Gasseldorf in Franconian Switzerland. He learned the butcher's trade in Frankfurt. At the beginning of the 19th century, he moved to Vienna and, from May 15, 1805, offered his sausages in his smokehouse, located in today's Neustiftgasse number 111, which had been opened a year earlier, but with a slightly different recipe due to the addition of beef (today often around 30%). At that time, pork and beef butchers were still strictly separated in Frankfurt, but not in Vienna, which is why Lahner was able to produce the Frankfurt sausages in this way. This story is the account of the Lahner family. The 1894 Austrian Appetit-Lexikon does not mention Lahner, but writes: "Frankfurter sausages made from minced pork in finger-thick mutton casings are a 19th-century achievement that came to Vienna from southern Germany around 1840." There is no mention of beef there. They were eaten in Austria in the 19th century, preferably with horseradish, as a snack with beer. A Viennese novel published in 1868 speaks of "sausages with horseradish" that are "sold everywhere as Viennese sausages." A recipe for "Viennese sausages", made in equal parts from lean pork and pork fat, can be found in a Cologne cookbook as early as 1840. According to the "Systematik der Kochkunst" (Systematics of the culinary art) published in 1886, "Viennese sausages" consist primarily of lean beef to which some "Viennese sausage lard" is added. In contrast, "Frankfurter sausages" contain primarily lean pork to which some veal or beef is added. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

The description of Exceptional Trees is rather vague, so it might be accepted there. "It can also be the second biggest, the third biggest, or any tree of truly exceptional size." does probably not apply to your tree. If it is currently not accepted there, it would at least fit there, if the owner would decide to include trees that are not only exceptional in size or age, but also in "other ways" (which might be difficult to define - maybe "exceptional form" like c2f864eb6ecff909eb4d487374b00afa.jpg (520×670) (pinimg.com) or "exceptional planting spaces" like on your photo).

In rare circumstances I think that an additional link to a video/audio file might be helpful/interesting, but like most other WMers think, this should just be an add-on to the text description.

Too bad that the Counting display for the bats didn't make it, but maybe https://www.Waymarking.com/waymarks/wm183X5 is a good candidate. A display showing the National debt is another example of what I had in mind when I created that category.

This quotation leads to my question (not to Torgut, but to the officers of the "Permanent Car Displays" category): What if there is museum, that is NOT a car museum with dozens and hundreds of cars, but a - let's say - technical or historical museum with just ONE special car on display? And one question to Torgut: What's the story behind this Morris Minor(?) car?

The second photo of that WM shows some persons next to the letters. I doubt that they are only 50cm. :-) And I'm not allowed to open Peshawar - Pakistan - City Names in Giant Letters on Waymarking.com

Thank you. I will do it in the next couple of days. Another thought that came to my mind: I will have to pay the entrance fee and enter the museum twice (once to take some photos, and again when the museum has moved to see if the items are still there), but I can afford 2 x 5 Euro.

I found the opportunity to post a WM in a category I don't have yet. It's in a museum, but I read that the museum will move to a bigger building in 2024. So, should I wait until the museum has moved or post a WM now and change the coordinates in 2024? What would you do?

I once made photos of a nice fountain without any water running. It turned out, that it was broken and it doesn''t seem that it will ever be repaired. But it's not converted either. So, this fountain will most likely never become a WM. I can live with that. Fortunately there are plenty of other things to waymark. :-)

I don't think that you have an example for Austria, do you? BTW: On the webpage Overseas Chapter | Daughters of the American Revolution (dar.org) I tried the link "Vienna" (Austria), but it doesn't work anymore. The correct website is https://daraustria.org/. Also not working is the link "Rochambeau Chapter" (France) on the same page (error 404). This one should go to https://www.darfrance.org/. I haven't checked the other links on that page. :-)

Well, there are 2 active officers in that category. I would send each of them a note and ask if there is any problem with the waymark.

https://Waymarking.com/waymarks/wm17XHY was approved. Thanks, everybody.

You did resubmit it, after making the corrections, right? Which category is the WM? Maybe you could send a note to the officers of that category. Everybody (like me) who is not officer in that category will not be allowed to see the WM, before it is approved.

I'm not sure, if this stone is a gift of France to Greece, or vice versa. I will try this category. I was first thinking about "Histoires de France (French historical markers)", because I think it would fit there, but the WMs in that category have to "Be located in France and in the departments and territories overseas".

When we visited the Delphi excavations in Greece last year, we saw an interesting memorial stone commemorating the fact that at the turn of the century France was entrusted with the excavations. I'm not sure which category (if any) would best fit here.

Maybe ... it has an interesting "Neon sign" it is some sort of "Superlatives" like oldest/only/biggest/... (open-air) cinema in .... it has a special architecural style like "Art Deco - Art Nouveau" or "Googie Architecture" or.... you can find a photo of the opening and post it in "Photos Then and Now" it has a "Wikipedia Entry" you can find a news article about it and post it in "News Article Locations" you can find the year of its construction somewhere on the building and post it in "Dated Buildings and Cornerstones" ....... In general: If you could tell us the name/location of the cinema, that would make things even easier.

Yet another city: Todi, Italy - 15,724 inhabitants Several more WMs are yet to come. BTW: I was very lucky to discover a 9/11-Memorial there.

Happy New Year everybody!

I think I found at least one in the USA: DODGE CITY, KANSAS—SEPTEMBER 2017: Antique wooden slot machine dispensing souvenir tokens displayed at the Boot Hill Museum Stock Photo - Alamy What do you think about it? I doubt that this was the only one that ever existed. My theory is, that there were not that much of them and that in the end the Penny Smashers were winning the race, but there might be more of them in other museums.

You may also think about including Euro Souvenir Note (euronotesouvenir.ie) machines. Just an idea.
