Drop an editor cone on the map.
I came up with this idea while replying to this thread: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=76722
The idea is that in a construction zone or other area of contentious editing, instead of relying on the UR conversation feature as a place to discuss edits, we could drop a marker on the map which then links to a thread in the forums where the edits can be discussed. This would centralize discussion, and prevent all the information from being lost if someone closes the UR.
•Saving a cone to the map automatically creates a forum thread.
•The first post in the thread automatically contains a permalink to the cone.
•Cones are only visible in WME, not the client or LiveMap.
•Cones have properties much like other landmarks and can be locked.
Interested in hearing feedback.
