Coordinates are off edit
After downloading the coords of all ouvrages to Google Maps (from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Maginot_Line), I found this one, placed right next to the Swiss border (or even onto Swiss soil? didn't check), consistent with the location image in the article.
Now, obviously, that can't be right! For one thing, we're supposed to be close to Luxemburg...
I speculate (but don't know for sure) that KML and image are generated automatically from the coordinates given in the article, and that those are off. Could someone fix those, please? I wouldn't know how, neither would I know the real coordinates. Thanks! --192.54.174.146 (talk) 13:22, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- It might just be a typo; I'll check and correct. Thanks for taking the time to ask! Acroterion (talk) 13:36, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- The latitude number was three degrees off - 46 degrees when it should have been 49 degrees. Thanks for the heads-up. Acroterion (talk) 13:44, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
