    RFC: Add Visit Log Suggestions

    (Has Waypoint)
    Currently we have:
    Instructions for Visiting a Waymark in this Category:
    No log instructions provided.

    I'd like to add some suggestions for Visiting:
    "A current photo would be appreciated. If there's no photo, please tell us the condition of the historical marker. Your thoughts on the marker subject are welcome, too."

    I'm getting a lot of "Saw this today" visits. I'm hoping we can add the text above just to get Visitors to write something.

    Can we? Or is that too big of a change?

    (It is kinda cool that I'm complaining about the quality of visits now instead of the quantity.)

    Re: RFC: Add Visit Log Suggestions

    There are some waymarks that really don't inspire much to log about. I did see it, it's still there. I have two standbys to flesh out my logs. I'll comment on the weather or comment about how I happened to run across the location to begin with. "I spotted this interesting historical marker while out geocaching on a cold and snowy day". Not much more than I visited, though. I do get mostly geocacher visits to my waymarks, because I mostly waymark when I'm geocaching. I'll put in my geocache log if there is a waymark nearby.
