Area Managers - Oldest Update Request?

[AlanOfTheBerg]

The oldest I've processed was 572 days. You win.

[AlanOfTheBerg]

I'm getting closer.

[AlanOfTheBerg]

Well, I found an older one, but if one calculates the actual date the update request below was submitted, it was still 6 days after the one the OP submitted.

[AlanOfTheBerg]

Put in the date you're adding the note, ask the user to contact you because you can't find any problems and need help to fix it. Give them contact methods for you, such as email or a link to create a PM to you on the forums.

This is my boilerplate text for something like this:

Thank you for the map error report!

After checking all the roads in the area and comparing them against aerial photos, I am still unable to find a problem near by. Forward this email to alanoftheberg@gmail.com with your comments and additional information about this error report.

Please reply within 7 days so that the map may be updated quickly. If you cannot reply within that time, this request may be closed.

The <pre> tags format the email such that all the line breaks are included. However, it also makes the text smaller and changes it to a different font. I've received more responses lately to update requests feedback than before, mostly from newer users. I still get maybe a 5% response rate.

I use Google Reader for my area/state and I star the ones I respond to so I remember to close them after 7 days.

There is more on this topic over in this thread.

I hope it will get some day possible to filter this by country...

The spreadsheet isn't the best.

FYI, there are 600 open URs in Netherlands. 356 in the UK.

Where did you found that?

The World update request spreadsheet. I downloaded it to Excel and then use Autofilter. Country is one of the fields.

Well... I checked the sheet. The 600 entries are the separate feed for Dutch cities, this does not mean there are 600 UR's...

I realized that much later. My mistake.
