Here's the story.

I've noticed that a Russian city of Chaikovskiy refers to "RU.90" region
And this region is absent in admin1Codes.txt file.

So I thought it was error and decided to fix it on geonames by myself.

I navigated to Chaikovskiy and attempted to change the region to the proper value - "Permskiy kray".
The operation failed with the following error
"error while saving:
no code defined for this admin division."

And then I looked at the HTML source for the combo-box. You see the codes are missing for Permskaya Oblast’ and Permskiy Kray.

<option value="RU.undefined">Permskaya Oblast’</option>
<option value="RU.undefined">Permskiy Kray</option>
<option value="RU.59">Primorskiy Kray</option>

Can you fix it?

Thanks, Pavel.

Hi Pavel

I have deleted one entry for the Perm region and have assigned the other with the admin code '90'.

Hey, Mark!
Thank you for so much effort you put in the db support.

Well, you have deleted the wrong one
Permskaya Oblast' is a part of Permskiy Kray since December 1 of 2005.
You better name RU.90 as "Permskiy Kray"

The source is this wikipedia article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_Krai


RU.90 now appeared in admin1CodesASCII.txt, but it is missing in admin1Codes.txt.

Thanks!

Hi Pavel

It is now in both files and I have also renamed it.
