I have added a new name it is successfully displayed in the geonames web front end. However when querying using the api it is not returned in the result

https://www.geonames.org/13512350/gosport-premier-marina.html


http://api.geonames.org/findNearbyJSON?lat=50.79824&lng=-1.11914&username=<myusername>

Is there a delay between names being added and their availability in the api?

Thanks
John

We have the same issue for St. Catharines Ontario: correctly designated in English on www but incorrectly as "Saint Catharines" on api.
