Security Risk Template added
editThis template is added because the addition of a photograph may cause a potential security risk to this embassy. The mapping mechanism has been added to provide a method to track and trace those users who wish to find out more information about this embassy. PeterZed 19:20, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

User:SimonP
editYour continued posting of address information is a security risk. Please cease and desist. This page was free from address information. The mapping mechanism provides a way to trace those users who seek that information. PeterZed 20:27, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- This is idiotic. The address is public information that is easily accessible by a Google search. android79 21:08, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- The address is public information that the Embassy itself puts at the top of their own homepage, so "idiotic" is insufficient. --Calton | Talk 03:46, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
- The address as security risk? That's a little goofy, I'm sure there are other types of information that could pose security risks, but surely not a published address of an Embassy. Rx StrangeLove 07:28, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Link to GeoHack not working
editThere is something wrong with the GeoHack page for the Embassy of the UK. The correct degree-minute-second coordinates are passed (38°55'11.0"N 77°03'40.0"W) but the page itself points to decimal coordinates (38.919722, -77.061111) which is in front of the Embassy of South Africa. The correct value, based on searching for the embassy in Google Maps, is (38.9202743,-77.0651352).
