Sure, go ahead. It's a wiki- and anyone can edit it. (I recommend also using the IRC chat as it's a quick way to get responses, rather than waiting on the talk pages) The challenge with the wiki-tables is that it is not designed to be able to handle large spreadsheets. It's also not possable for multiple editors to be editing the wiki-chart. Nor can forms & html web pages & pie-charts & csv files & forms & etc...pdf files . be created with the wiki. Spreadsheets have an advantage because you are able to do "="cellA41+cellB53" & it allows for much better organizing of information. ... i would use OpenOffice Calc, but that doesn't have a interactive web-version. When you are listing 500 map features, the wiki (although wonderful) can't handle all 500 features & list all the details. As you would need to separate them onto different pages. So if you would like to transfer & update the wiki with tables go right on ahead. (seriously, it's on my list of things todo, so go for it) I'd start by updating this page http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Map_On_Garmin/POI_Types so then it lists the cross-reference to the appropriate wiki-pages. So ya, it's on my list of things todo, but if you want todo that, go right on ahead. Cheers, Sam P.S. If you'd like to be an editor to the spreadsheet, just ask :0) > > > _______________________________________________ > Talk-ca mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca > _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
