Thanks Sebastian & Pablo for your responses.

I checked, as you suggested, the live endpoint but the problem persists.
Not on all the points, for example Melbourne is okay, but
http://live.dbpedia.org/page/Prahran,_Victoria still has two geo:lat
objects.

I also would like to note that this page is not in sync with Wikipedia page
of Prahran. I'm thinking of the possibility that the extractors source code
is okay now, but
not when the articles were extracted.
Last update of this Wikipedia page is 18 July 2012. I checked the added
triples on http://live.dbpedia.org/liveupdates/2012/07/18/ but there is no
reference to the Prahran resource.

And thanks, I also like the images. When it's done I will upload them at
the wiki.

Salut!
