I am a new user, so I figured to post this and someone could explain how I could fix it or it will be fixed.

Cheers

Hi

The manual how to edit entries is here:
http://www.geonames.org/manual.html

The Great Wall is difficult to represent with one lat/lng only, so I don't think this entry can be much improved.

Best

A large portion of the features in this dataset represent lines and polygons so it is a generalization I would assume. But if a feature (such as the Great Wall of China) is hundreds of miles off and in the water it should be moved. Thank you for sending me the manual.

Cheers,

Justin
