[edit] Jishui County and the Geo Template

Hi, I added the correct coordinates to your Jishui County article. I dropped by to explain that you should NEVER edit the geo template to use specific coordinates as EVERY page on wikipedia with coordinates uses it--thus your edit made EVERY page with coordinates go to Jishui County on maps.google.com. I've been obsession over this all morning! I had even tracked down the maker of the wikimedia tool thinking it was an error in his program. I finally figured it out so no harm done, just please be mindful of such things in the future. A template is a page that is used by multiple articles. The correct way to introduce coordinates into an article is by using {{coord|27|12|25|N|115|07|25|E|display=title}}. The coordinates used there are of course for Jishui County, you would replace them with whatever was appropriate if you made another article or added the template to an existing article.
