Having trouble creating new standardized place names
Comments
-
I've been having trouble creating new standardized places for a few days - all attempts end after submitting, system reporting that it can't find a my parent place. But I definitely enter the data correctly, the parent names I mentioned exist in the system! About a week ago, everything was working OK. What does it mean?

Server break down? Internet connection problems? Update to the program that has broken your browser?
When I tested this just now, the parent place came up just fine so I'm not sure what could be going on when you try.

Here is PrintScreen - situation after Submit: !Parent name cannot be find
I have edited: Municipality - Vrapice (name) - Kladno, Čechy, Rakousko (existing parent name) - Czech language - Location (OK) - URL of Wikipedia.
It is something wrong? I have more unsuccessful attempts with another places yesterday and tomorrow.

I changed the website to Česky and followed your steps exactly and got the same error which confirms that something really is not working on their end. I hope someone in the Places team sees this and can get the problem off to the engineers to fix promptly.

As a test, I changed back to English and so used the parent place of Kladno, Bohemia, Austria, but otherwise filled out the form just like you did. I got the same error which insists Kladno, Bohemia, Austria (
) does not exist in the database. So it isn't a language problem.2 -
To Gordon Collett:
Thank you for your testing, I hope that someone in the Places team sees this too.
