[edit] Contradictory information

The action described in my previous entry has been executed. If you would like to see for yourself the two conflicting coordinates on a map, click here (the coordinates used in this article as well as on French wikipedia is the one towards the top with the play symbol in a green background), and make a case for either, please do so on this discussion page at any point. May I also remind anybody creating articles about French communes to use the appropriate template (which is found on this article) instead of making a bullet point list or a custom table. --Svm2 18:25, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


The bullet points have now been replaced with an infobox (thanks me!), but the coordinates contradiction (described below) is still there. If nobody objects in the next 48 hours, I will use the coordinates as given by French wikipedia as definitive. --Svm2 16:14, 10 August 2007 (UTC)


Whilst the geographical coordinates in the top-right corner of this article give 50˚30'51"N 1˚37'17"E, whilst the bullet point list (which should really be in an appropriate template) says 50°31'07"N 1°38'29"E. French wikipedia gives 50°31’07"N 1°38’ 29"E. Since I know nothing about the town (having come across the article during research), I cannot fix the problem myself. Would somebody appropriate address this. --Svm2 20:50, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
