Hi,
I used to try change/add russian transcriptions (alternames) many times, but it wrote me: "the name is locked and may only be updated by users with a user level >= 2. Your current user level is 1". Please upgrade me!
By the way, I nearly to finish transcription of geoname's feature codes to russian, who is interested in?
thanks,
Vladimir Yakovlev

Hi,
Could I please be upgraded as well? I've been recently trying to update a number of population and alternate names records but keep getting locked out, e.g., State of Bihar in India, geonameid 1275715.

Hi,
I recently added some and corrected existing names and placements of several polish mountains (Beskidy), but some of them are locked for editing by users with level below 2. Would it be possible to upgrade my account, so I can edit locked entries?
Best Regards, Dariusz.

Hi Dariusz
I have increases your userlevel. I have noted you add the elevation of all mountain to the name. Is this necessary? Isn't it enough to have the elevation in the elevation attribute and keep the name clean? Anybody can add it automatically with a simple script if this is desired in a custom display.

Hi Mark,
I added elevation data, because data from GeoNames is used on this website - it creates artifical panoramas. If elevation is added into name than is appears in panorama - it's a lot better looking then. Is there any other way to provide this information without adding it into name?
Best Regards, Dariusz.

Hi Dariusz
You could ask Ulrich Deuschle, the guy producing the artificial panoramas to include the elevation in the name. It would be very simple for him to implement this feature. It is possible that he doesn't want to because the names would be longer and require more precious screen space. In this case he could add a parameter, so that the guy requesting a panorama can choose whether to include the elevation or not.

Ok, so I will remove all elevation data leaving it only in proper field "Elevation". I will also chech with Urlich if it is possible to attach elevation data into panoramas or create such option on his site.
Thanks a lot!
Dariusz.

I have added/edited already a lot of entries and got some userlevel error messages. Would it be possible to upgrade me. In this case I would like to delete the duplicate entry 7778939 of 6299349.
Thanks Enrico

This other guy "Almola..." was just a spammer. I have blocked his forum account and deleted his posting.
I have increased your userlevel right now and I have deleted the duplicate airport.
Best Regards
Marc

Hi Denis
I see only one Russian name for Saratov and it looks correct. What do you want to remove?
Best Regards
Marc

Sorry, I meant Samara.
Alt-name "БАЛАШОВ" is not relevant to it.

Hello!
I suppose that http://www.geonames.org/522941/neftekumsk.html can be deleted - it duplicates http://www.geonames.org/797781/neftekumsk.html , but is less precisely positioned.
It would be great if you upgrade me - I've done not many changes so far, but I work in a web-analytics service Openstat, where we use your information in our geobase and regularly check new russian cities. Sometimes editing these cities requires higher userlevel.

Hi
Thanks. I have deleted the duplicate and increased your user level.
Please use English names for the main name:
http://www.geonames.org/6930743/volochaevskoe.html
You can use Cyrillic names in the alternate names.
Best
Marc
