Merger proposal

- The result was merge Afon Morlais, Pembrokeshire into Afon Marlais, Pembrokeshire -- Rswarbrick (talk) 11:31, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
The page at Afon Morlais, Pembrokeshire seems to have a subset of the content here and be talking about the same stream. If no-one objects, I intend to merge the two pages into this one. Rswarbrick (talk) 23:19, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- I would agree! Geopersona (talk) 06:42, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

OS maps
[edit]SovalValtos - thanks for spotting the mill. I don't understand why any of the coordinates in the article don't give the options to look at OS maps; the maps they do give show very little detail. Can you fix this, or am I missing something obvious? T Tony Holkham (Talk) 11:16, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
- User:Tony Holkham I don't understand either. There are other coord links elsewhere that I have seen (on other articles) which give a larger selection including National Library of Scotland; not sure about OS. I cannot give chapter and verse with an example until I find one to link, nor can I fix the irritating problem yet. Inserting coord links is something new to me. I don't like all the figures showing in the text. Maybe they can be piped just to say coords? Here is a link to the NLS 25 inch map [1]. I may well have mistakenly put the mill on Afon Marlais when it should be on the tributary where the mill race is labelled south of the railway.[2] I am fortunate to have a copy of OS 1:25000 nationwide c2005 on my computer so have positioned the source at the different extended position from NLS 1907.
- I have more to say about rivers and potential content but for now this link helps Wikipedia:WikiProject Rivers. Images would be nice, both map and photos.SovalValtos (talk) 11:54, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
- If you click on the coord link at the top of Blaenffos, you get options including OS; click on the link on Afon Marlais and you get a different result, yet both coords seem the same format. Puzzling. I don't like the look of the figures in the text, either, but have no idea about alternatives that hide the figures. Maybe Geopersona would know?

- Yes the Blaenffoss example was what I had in mind as to getting different results. Maybe the help desk [3] would contact an expert?SovalValtos (talk) 14:34, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
- Perhaps Geopersona would know . . . but alas, he doesn't, on either score - sorry guys! Geopersona (talk) 16:03, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
- P.S. randomly, one of the right bank tributaries is labelled as Afon Cwm at 1:25K cheers Geopersona (talk) 16:27, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
