How to create a wiki page for your MHP

Fill in this template and link the respective MHP name in the table above.


How to mark your MHP in the map

Description of procedure Examples

Step 1

Convert your geographical coordinates into GoogleMaps compatible coordinates using one of the websites below:

If the coordinates of your MHP were 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E, the converted values would be 6.577778, 38.697306.

Step 2

Insert the converted coordinates into the "Wikitext" of the map followed by the name of the MHP site plus the geographic coordinates.


RTENOTITLE for an existing MHP

Add 6.577778, 38.697306, name of the hydrosite 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E into the Wikitext

RTENOTITLE for a planned MHP

Include (_grey) infront of the line that you add.
For example, add (_grey) 6.577778, 38.697306, name of the hydrosite 6º34’40’’N 38º41’50.3’’ E into the Wikitext.
