	:Greetings. "Foundation" is part of their name. That makes it a proper noun (does it not?) and it is the way they always refer to themselves - see http://www.mcfworld.com/?lang=EN and compare ]. Regards, ] (]) 11:45, 12 February 2008 (UTC).

	::Yes indeed. - Does the Moravian Church Foundation have anything to do with ] or the ]? I think the article should in the first sentence define it as and link to ] if that is what it is.

	:::This is Misplaced Pages. No one "owns" the article. If you wish to add some words to link to ] please go right ahead.

	::Your approach (direct Wikimapia text link followed by <nowiki>{{</nowiki>coord<nowiki>}}</nowiki>) works well in ] with one minor quibble: it would look better if the coords were displayed in a slightly smaller font - as things stand they seem to overpower the accompanying text.

	== External links in article body ==
	Hello. As you are well aware, ] does not condone external links in article body outside the External links section, and with links to geographical information services in particular, it instructs to give the information as coordinates only, not links to specific map services. WikiMapia is a great service, but ] should try to understand that not everyone shares your enthusiasm about combining Misplaced Pages with a project that has incompatible goals, stucture, and terms of use.

	:Perhaps. But it does seem strange that a clearly experienced editor chooses to edit anonymously. While you are free to do so, it should be obvious that it will raise eyebrows.

	If you read the history at and you will clearly see that the redirects were put in place by ] and .
