BruceS:The original thread that introduced uncategorized waymarks then known as orphans is
here. The key line on "credit" is "If the group accepts the waymark, it gains full waymark status and now
shows up in regular searches on the site. You get full credit for
entering the waymark just as if you had known the category from the
start."
exactly. now, why would anything else make sense? it sure sounds like something everyone would want to participate in--not giving away free waymarks, and lighting up icons and maps of places you never been.
