+ToGoKo Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I have one lonely cache plant, which was recently published. It is in an area that is rich with history, but I didn't include any of that history in the description, when I submitted the cache for review. Is it ok to change the description to add such information? The location will not be changed and there will be nothing added, as far as hints or clues. Thanks in advance for any advice!!

+Chuy! Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 But of course! And take a photo of the area for use the webpage background. Or find a photo online and use that. Quote Link to comment
+Kryten Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 There is no restriction on editing the descriptive text so go ahead. Changing the nature of a cache once it has been approved is frowned upon, but just adding background detail is perfectly acceptable. Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 That is a very good reason to change the cache description. Quote Link to comment
+ToGoKo Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 Thanks! I thought it would be fine, but wanted to check with the elitists.... errr... uhhhmm... more seasoned cachers. (Sorry! I had to say it! No offense to anyone who answered my newbie question!!) Off to do some fact checking. Quote Link to comment
+Prime Suspect Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 There is no restriction on editing the descriptive text so go ahead. Not exactly. If your changes put the cache page outside the guidelines, that can get the cache archived really quick. Quote Link to comment

Agree with PS--Your cache would be archived if you turned it into a platform to present some agenda, or made a huge sales pitch for some business. You would also put your reviewer in an uncomfortable situation, and they would probably question your future caches closely before allowing them to be published. On the other hand, if you just want to discuss the history of the area or point out a nearby piece of art work or great architecture, etc, that will probably be fine. And that's what it sound like you want to do. If you are unsure in any way, run it past your reviewer before making the changes. Quote Link to comment
