But why the english wikipedia article shows the coordinates as 24°S 33°W, when
it should be 24°S 327°E? The user added that to the infobox choosed this format
explict, sounds not like a error for me. I have only seen that this gives a
problem, so I have no idea and no opinion on the "right" thing here.
