We cannot delete the tag's history, as [b:2jlffa2y]seafordian[/b:2jlffa2y] explained.
But this info was removed in searching engine. Nobody can find it by search - except you, only because you know, where is this tag.

The aforementioned URL is the one wherein, an outsider and unknown person has published my confidential and personal details on public forum.

Pl look into it and remove the content as soon as possible , otherwise I have to initiate a legal action against the company and its associated people.

You are right. This non-linear street must be removed.
I marked it for deletion, and protected it from cancelling (restoring).

Hi everyone,
i've recently started correcting places on the Pitcairn Island (pacific ocean) and I've found a strange place on the shore of this island, named [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=fr&lat=-25.070479&lon=-130.094647&z=15&show=/32283134/South-Pacific-Ocean:2ijg7mid]South-Pacific-Ocean[/url:2ijg7mid].

The author ([i:2ijg7mid]LTree[/i:2ijg7mid]) tells me that he created this place to complete the [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=fr&lat=-25.070479&lon=-130.094647&z=15&m=w&show=/32283134/South-Pacific-Ocean:2ijg7mid]the island outline under the wikimapia map[/url:2ijg7mid] which is not quite accurate.
This is true (the map has a "hole" in the island), but wouldn't the [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=-25.069857&lon=-130.105762&z=15&show=/1612188/Pitcairn-Island:2ijg7mid]Island outline[/url:2ijg7mid] be enough ?

My guess is that this "South-Pacific-Ocean" place should be deleted and the island outline shoud be improved (already started).

What is your advice ? Can I request the deletion of this place ?
Thanks,
Cyril

You are quite correct, cyril_13, that place should be deleted. It would be nice if we had the terrain patch tool of yesteryear and it would be convenient if these "temp patches" were somehow acceptable but they aren't. The only way it can be acceptable if this marked area exists in reality, and we all know it doesn't.

Maybe these aren't 'places' according WM rules, but unique sat photos - when they still remain on sat images...
I would like to remain them on the map, though someone could not agree.
Thanks for these links, I'll add them to my 'favorite'... Maybe not only me...

I had grouped them under a category revived from an auto-bot created word after I saw that most of these tags were made by WM Team itself.

For example, here's one by AK <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="wikimapia.org/#lang=en&;lat=15.298500&lon=19.429728&z=20&m=b&show=/2251253/Well-in-an-amazing-zoom-%2823%29">wikimapia.org/#lang=en&;lat=15.29 ... m-%2823%29<!-- m --> (see the comments by [color=#0080FF:8ry8ebmb]stcraftie59[/color:8ry8ebmb] )

[quote="bubnilka":3faxxlep]Maybe these aren't 'places' according WM rules, but unique sat photos - when they still remain on sat images...
I would like to remain them on the map, though someone could not agree.
Thanks for these links, I'll add them to my 'favorite'... Maybe not only me...[/quote:3faxxlep]
Some of them aren't sat images, but aerial photographs (elephant and flamingos).
As for the (supposed) crocodiles, it is clearly a satellite image, and not so remarkable (in my opinion)

As for jatayu's link of the well, it is indeed interresting although I'd have changed the name for something more "neutral" than "in an amazing zoom"

Yes, I used 'sat image' to call real bonded photos of large areas, not photo-process itself.
Of course, many such hi-res photos of cities (not only crocodiles) were made using airplanes, including 45°images.
And some places - even using balloons and kites - were imported to Google Earth from 'The Public Laboratory for Open Technology and Science', for example...

Wow, didn't know about the balloon and kites.. good to know !

I agree the airplane photographs should remain, but on the other hand, I would go for the deletion of places such as the [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=fr&lat=-24.956182&lon=32.916308&z=19&m=b&show=/32286970/Wetland-Africa:2yka3klw]wetland africa[/url:2yka3klw] or [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=fr&lat=-18.960144&lon=23.598912&z=18&m=b&show=/32241156/Elephant-with-Baby-Elephant-Illusion:2yka3klw]elephant illusion lake[/url:2yka3klw] who don't really have any added value (neither look like elephants.. <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) --> )

Normally I would agree, but if they are part of the [url=http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=4.477856&lon=22.148438&z=4&m=b&tag=33618:20hle8vm]"Africa Megaflyover"[/url:20hle8vm] imagery then I think we ought to keep them. How else would people find these image locations?

Ok, I get it, thanks. Didn't pay attention to the "Africa Megaflyover" collection.

I've clarified the category description and tweaked the name form. They're not orthodox objects but Wikimapia does allow unorthodox tagging to a certain degree.

It's interesting that the WP article says "[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MegaFlyover:j56xmqe3]Five hundred of these images have been added to Google Earth's database.[/url:j56xmqe3]", yet WM only has 41 of them tagged and identified as such. Where are the rest?

Screenshot of my Google Earth. The "red plane" icons are the locations for all the images.

Yeah, duuh - why didn't I think of that <!-- s:?: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_question.gif" alt=":?:" title="Question" /><!-- s:?: -->

So I added a few, and it quickly became clear that at least for those image areas, that there has been a "map shift" in the intervening decade, and Google has not realigned these hi-resolution images with the (new?) background.
Too bad, but it's still useful in locating the images.

Anybody looking for a mini-project? ... to add the rest?
