G'day This story raises an interesting question http://www.sciencealert.com/turns-out-australia-isn-t-where-you-think-it-is
In short the GPS location of Australia is about to be adjusted 1.5m or about 5feet I know its not as significant as the change of 1994 when it was adjusted 200m. This shift that will alter all the GPS data held in Wikidata and alter the positioning of media files which have been geolocated. The question is are there any plans to bulk update all of this information, or will it rely on individual changes to be made to each piece of data. As a secondary question do we even change the location of media files as that data is accurate to when the media was created. -- G nangarra President Wikimedia Australia WMAU: http://www.wikimedia.org.au/wiki/User:Gnangarra Photo Gallery: http://gnangarra.redbubble.com
