There are considerable waymarks submitted to the Human Error category that are not suitable for the category for one reason or another, especially since Human Error gets referred to from the forum for very inappropriate sites. Your retaining wall... I voted against it in the officer vote because I couldn't see anything one way or the other from ...

I'm a supporter of cross-posting. Just not plain out redundancy. When so many gripe about too many categories being created, you'd think obviously unnecessary ones would be stricken. And just because Bears made it through, it doesn't mean to heck with all integrity.

Birdwatching Locations is not so overwhelming of a category that avaries are overwhelmed and unfound, requiring their own specified category to even be noticed. It's redundant by the very definition of what is expected to be avoided in category creation.

There's no new experience being provided in this category. There's nothing being included that's excluded in the present category. There's nothing more noteworthy about aviaries that is not already covered in Birdwatching Locations. It's plain out redundancy.

gparkes:I had slept since then, but I sure had, almost a year ago. I guess my thoughts haven't changed too much, other than maybe I have been swayed to understand the hundreds of thousands of unmarked soldier's graves, as I really have noticed how many there are in comparison with the civilian unknowns. I still think there is a need for that as ...

gparkes:But there is a category for graves of the unknown. I wrote the Graves of the Unknown category with the concept of John Doe and my officers and I firmly decided that the category will never accept military out of respect for not mixing the two. Regardless of stating this in the description, we still receive a number of ...

A category for Graves of Unknown Soldiers has yet to be created.

Also to add: The Headstones of Centennarians category has some very meaningful personal submissions. Waymarkers have created beautiful homages to family members using that category. It doesn't get any more personal than that! :)

As a reviewer who's written a few categories, I don't really mind if there's personal information in the long description as long as there is also the required information. A example: For an Episcopal Church, you can tell me that it was raining and you saw a brilliant rainbow over the steeple but couldn't manage to photograph it as long ...

I did this to somebody once and felt absolutely horrible! I got the notification but then promptly forgot and never voted. I sent an apology to the category leader right away. When the category was resubmitted for officer vote, I paid attention. :)

gt.us: silverquill:You, know, if one finds something like this - a broken link - a note to the group leader would be in order instead of sitting back and snickering or taking pot shots in the forums.  It is tough to keep up on links and we see them all the time on web sites.  We'd like to keep things up-to-date, but we need to help each ...

gt.us:My ''favorite'' is the B&B's category, where 2 of the links are no longer existant. A variable asks if it is listed on a non-existant Christian B&B website, and if you answer ''no'' to that variable the waymark says ''Christian: NO'' I laugh every time I see how absurd that variable is. I always say ''yes'' because I am ...

And my join date over to the left reflects the day I changed my username and rejoined the forum.

Is this category going anywhere?

Maybe if Waymarking offered Mafia Wars... There's an app on FB for ''Geocaching Gifts''. We ought to have Waymarking Gifts... Big history books, American Guides, Digital cameras, bright yellow official-looking vests...

swizzle:I just hope that anyone I've crossed can understand at I come across as a rather sizable jerk if things don't go my way. Its not ok and I'm trying to work on it. Not in my experience with you, but I've experienced ''sizable jerk'' on a much bigger scale. You'd have to work pretty hard to get there. ;) swizzle:I still get frustrated and ...
