Maps

I can't seem to get the location map template to work properly. Despite getting the coordinates for Berry and Wyong from Geoscience Australia, it's putting the red dots out to sea! Is somebody able to plot the subsequent cases in regional NSW and Queensland? Dbromage [Talk] 07:04, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sort of fixed. Is there a way to place dots without a label? Dbromage [Talk] 07:42, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think the labels are good. Please leave them. In any case, I don't know anything about those maps. Great work on the page. I am a lemon 23:10, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh sorry, now I see why you want to get rid of the lables, they're covering each other up.I am a lemon 23:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Restrictions have been lifted in WA as at 1600 local time 29th WA horse lockdown lifted from 4pm today. Gnan garra 12:48, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

But not at Randwick. Now quarantined for 60 days after 8 race horses tested positive. Dbromage [Talk] 06:10, 30 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's a shame. I was hoping they'd ban it until the whole fiasco's over. It's making me a little uneasy! Auroranorth 11:28, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On 26 August 2007 many horses were released from from the Narrabri Showground where campdraft competitions were held. At least several of these horses carried EI into previously clean areas. Cgoodwin 00:40, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
