== Fix coordinates of [[Kirtland Community College]] == I've been trying for ten minutes to fix the coordinates at [[Kirtland Community College]]. The campus was moved in 2016, but the dot still shows the old location, and even updating the coordinates is still showing the old location. What am I doing wrong? The current coordinates are 44.60180007265286, -84.70585794585037 <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> β’ <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 14:53, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :Five decimal points gives a precision of around 1 metre. 14 is sub-atomic. <span class="vcard"><span class="fn">[[User:Pigsonthewing|Andy Mabbett]]</span> (<span class="nickname">Pigsonthewing</span>); [[User talk:Pigsonthewing|Talk to Andy]]; [[Special:Contributions/Pigsonthewing|Andy's edits]]</span> 14:59, 18 March 2026 (UTC) ::{{re|Pigsonthewing}} I tried shortening it to four decimal points and it ''still'' shows the old location. What am I doing wrong? <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> β’ <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 15:08, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::Click "Wikidata item" under "Tools" and update the coordinates at Wikidata. [[User:PrimeHunter|PrimeHunter]] ([[User talk:PrimeHunter|talk]]) 15:15, 18 March 2026 (UTC) ::::I don't see either of those options anywhere. <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> β’ <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 15:19, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::::"Tools" is in the interface. In the default skin Vector 2022 it's a drop-down menu at the top right. In other skins it's a menu in the left pane but "Wikidata item" is a little further down under "In other projects". [[User:PrimeHunter|PrimeHunter]] ([[User talk:PrimeHunter|talk]]) 15:25, 18 March 2026 (UTC) ::::::I have no clue what you're talking about. I'm using the default skin and I don't see anything called "Tools" anywhere on the page. Can you show me a screenshot? <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> β’ <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 15:29, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::::::[[:File:Commons "Tools" menu as of July 2024.png]]. "Tools" may also be in a sidebar to the right with a "hide" link next to it which would place it like the screenshot. In many browsers you can search a viewed page for a string with {{keypress|Ctrl|f}}. [[User:PrimeHunter|PrimeHunter]] ([[User talk:PrimeHunter|talk]]) 16:18, 18 March 2026 (UTC) ::::::::That area on the page is completely blank. I don't even see a "hide" anywhere. What page specifically do I need to be on to see it and therefore change it? Because it sure as shit isn't Kirtland's article, where the upper right is completely blank. <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> β’ <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 16:23, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::::::::Just go to [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6416228 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6416228]. Scroll down to "coordinate location".

The associated Wikidata link is in the left-side menu at the very bottom. I don't know where it is shown in the default skin, sorry. [[User:Schazjmd|<span style="color:#066293;">'''Schazjmd'''</span>]] [[User talk:Schazjmd|<span style="color:#738276;">''(talk)''</span>]] 16:47, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::::::::::I take that back: I just opened the article in an incognito window so I could see it in the default skin. Along the top of the center pane is "Read - Edit - View history - Tools". The Tools dropdown menu shows "Wikidata item" at the bottom of the list. [[User:Schazjmd|<span style="color:#066293;">'''Schazjmd'''</span>]] [[User talk:Schazjmd|<span style="color:#738276;">''(talk)''</span>]] 16:50, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::::::::::The Tools menu is on every wiki page. Do you really have Vector 2022 at [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering]]? Do you see "Tools" near the top right [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirtland_Community_College?useskin=vector-2022&safemode=1 here] or if you log out? Try to [[WP:BYPASS|bypass your cache]] with {{keypress|Ctrl|F5}} if you have a Windows browser, or what do you use? If none of this works then your browser may have a serious problem, or are you using some app instead of a browser. "What links here" is also in the Tools menu. Do you know that feature? [[User:PrimeHunter|PrimeHunter]] ([[User talk:PrimeHunter|talk]]) 16:51, 18 March 2026 (UTC) ::::::::::::Ah, it's on the side for me and not the bottom. I see "what links here". <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> β’ <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 17:03, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::::::::::::Hammer's been around for far longer than I have, so like me probably still uses a pre-Vector skin (Cologne Blue, Modern or MonoBook): for each of these, it's in the left sidebar, below the "{{int:wikibase-otherprojects}}" subheading, titled "{{int:wikibase-dataitem}}". If that is absent on an article, it means that there is no page at Wikidata. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] 🌹 ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 21:30, 18 March 2026 (UTC) ::[https://xkcd.com/2170/ Obligatory xkcd] [[User:Qwerfjkl|<span style="background:#1d9ffc; color:white; padding:5px; box-shadow:darkgray 2px 2px 2px;">Qwerfjkl</span>]][[User talk:Qwerfjkl|<span style="background:#79c0f2;color:white; padding:2px; box-shadow:darkgray 2px 2px 2px;">talk</span>]] 19:12, 18 March 2026 (UTC) :::[https://xkcd.com/2168/ See your 2170 and raise you 2168]. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] 🌹 ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 21:39, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
