== "Show both" instead of "Show all" when there's two maps ==

I think it would be a nice detail and more grammatically correct when there's two maps that can be flipped between, instead of an option that says "Show all" it should say "Show both". [[User:Akeosnhaoe|Akeosnhaoe]] ([[User talk:Akeosnhaoe|talk]]) 08:50, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

:@[[User:Akeosnhaoe]] I have been termed "Grammar police" (a label I do NOT disdain), as well as "Grammar ... (something beginning with N)." My thought on this is, why unnecessarily complicate things for a nicety of usage? [[User:AzseicsoK|Uporządnicki]] ([[User talk:AzseicsoK|talk]]) 22:24, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

::By the way, "... when there's two maps." That is to say, "... when there IS two maps." Last time I checked, there ISN'T two of anything in the world or out of it. [[User:AzseicsoK|Uporządnicki]] ([[User talk:AzseicsoK|talk]]) 22:29, 18 February 2024 (UTC)

== Center aligned label? ==

Line 26 ⟶ 18:

:{{re|RAGentry}} Sadly there doesn't seem to be a convenient way to do this currently. I guess until that "center" option is implemented, the best workaround would be to add/subtract a standard latitude from the position. If you were working with modules, such action could be automated as in [[Module:Russo-Ukrainian War detailed map (oblasts)]].

== Apparent ___location mismatch with Google Maps ==

I'm probably doing something stupid here, but I don't see it. Can someone please rub my nose in it? See [https://www.google.com/maps/place/Taam+Ja%E2%80%99+Blue+Hole/@18.0477806,-88.635012,8.56z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x8f5b07df75995341:0x7b1a2effc4cac2d7!8m2!3d18.6219303!4d-88.1486287!16s%2Fg%2F11tt34zhwr?entry=ttu this] v. the map below.

:@[[User:Wtmitchell|Wtmitchell]]: Google shows you the right ___location because you're searching by name, but the coords are more like 18.62 and -88.15 (pin dropped near the ___location in Google maps). [[User:Ponor|Ponor]] ([[User talk:Ponor|talk]]) 09:58, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

::Thanks. Some fiddling there got me [https://www.google.com/maps/place/Taam+Ja%E2%80%99+Blue+Hole/@18.6210987,-88.1497344,1007m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x8f5b07df75995341:0x7b1a2effc4cac2d7!8m2!3d18.6219303!4d-88.1486287!16s%2Fg%2F11tt34zhwr?entry=ttu this]; I couldn't find its lat/lon ___location in any google search results.
