Note that the cardinal directions (the directions in a compass) are something different than the labels of coordinates. The English N, E, S and W used in coordinates are derived from Northern Hemisphere, Eastern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, and Western Hemisphere. For most languages this results in the same abbreviation as the ones for North, East, South and West. However for example for Dutch it is different. Like "on 30 degrees north" would be translated as "op 30 graden noorderbreedte" (literally "on 30 degrees northern latitude"), short version: 30° NB. The Dutch abbreviations for coordinates are: NB - noorderbreedte ZB - zuiderbreedte OL - oosterlengte WL - westerlengte See also: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Module:I18n/coordinates TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T51385 REPLY HANDLER ACTIONS Reply to comment or attach files, or !close, !claim, !unsubscribe or !assign <username>.
