Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Dandan Oilik. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20121020080438/http://www.sach.gov.cn/tabid/96/InfoID/60/frtid/134/Default.aspx to http://www.sach.gov.cn/tabid/96/InfoID/60/frtid/134/Default.aspx

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Map

This is the most detailed map of the general area that I know of, but the archaeological site is not shown. [1] Overlooked? Or does Wikipedia have wrong coordinates? Geographyinitiative (talk) 06:09, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinate error

{{geodata-check}}

Dandan Oilik, a (formerly and repeatedly) lost city is not located as shown through the coordinates given. It is located in the desert an a location unknown to me and not amidst crops and settlements.

I've deleted those coordinates and added parameters to the infobox coordinates (which were taken from Wikidata) so that they now display in the title position. Deor (talk) 17:21, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
