Phoenician shipwrecks of Mazarrón
Thank you for your work on the Phoenician shipwrecks of Mazarrón article. I notice you added extremely long decimal coordinates, which I shortened. Google Maps has taken to providing 16-digit coordinates in what is believed to be a copyright trap scheme. That level of precision is in the 1/100th of a micrometer range. WP:OPCOORD calls for always rounding or truncating coordinates (tldr: use DD°MM'SS" or D.dddd° for everything). Otherwise, great article. Abductive (reasoning) 01:57, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
- @Abductive Thanks, I never really paid attention to this. I didn't know the consequences. I will be more careful when I copy coordinates in the future and limit the decimals to 4 digits. el.ziade (talkallam) 09:45, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
Hey, what’s up? I’ve nominated the page for GAN. I’ve cleaned it up and added some information, but I’m wondering if maybe I’m missing something. Do you think it can be improved any further? Nehme1499 01:19, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Nehme1499 ill take a look later today. el.ziade (talkallam) 07:22, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Nehme1499 I made a few changes to the lead. One thing that struck me is the image of Gibran Bassil. Can we please remove it? Is not a current government member and the image does not add the article. I will continue the review shortly. el.ziade (talkallam) 12:03, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
DYK for Bronze Age necropolis of Byblos
On 13 March 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bronze Age necropolis of Byblos, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the undisturbed Bronze Age necropolis of Byblos was discovered in 2019 during excavations of a previously unexplored area of the ancient city? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bronze Age necropolis of Byblos. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Bronze Age necropolis of Byblos), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
