Notes From Nature Talk

Numerous typos/spelling errors in internal country names

  • Mr._Kevvy by Mr._Kevvy

    I found this when I accidentally picked Uruguay instead of United States. When I clicked the field selector (2/9) to go back to the Country field, I noticed that it displayed misspelled in the field picker popup as Uraguay (must have been keyed by Homer Simpson. 😄 )

    So, being the methodical stickler that I am, I went through all the countries and found all of them (I hope) that were like this:

    Afghanistan  - Afganistan
    Cote D'Ivoire - Cote DIvoire
    Curacao - Curaco
    Korea South - Korea Sout
    Nambia - Nambia*
    Philippines - Philipines
    United Arab Emirates - United Arab Erimates
    Uruguay - Uraguay
    
    • Both display and internal are incorrect; correct spelling is Namibia

    Hope this helps.

    Must be nice. No such luck here; stuck in Toronto with Old Man Winter. Still, that time Friday afternoon is beyond most people's threshold for any new issues. 😃
