+cache_test_dummies Posted July 14, 2006 Posted July 14, 2006 A waymark was submitted to one of the categories I manage (Grave of a Famous Person) today and I approved it. I later received an email from the person who submitted the waymark - they noticed that a waymark had already been placed for that particular grave. The coordinates for the two submittals differed by just over 100 feet. Neither I, nor the person who submitted the second waymark, ever saw anything during the submittal/approval process indicating nearby waymarks. I know that I used to see these messages for nearby (within a mile) waymarks - have the messages been intentionally removed, or is this a bug?

I have also noticed same thing on two recent submissions. No warning for either the submitter or the approver.
+cache_test_dummies Posted July 15, 2006 Author Posted July 15, 2006 I'll check it out. Thanks for the heads up. Thanks for looking into this. In the mean time, in order to prevent the possibility of approving a duplicate, I've been doing a search for 'Nearest Waymarks' on the approval page before accepting new waymarks.
bootron Posted July 17, 2006 Posted July 17, 2006 Ok, this problem has now been corrected. Sorry for the issue!
OpinioNate Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I spun off the previous discussion here to a new topic.
