If a city is already in the database, you don't request it again. And, make sure for cities not in the database, that you make a divide between the building request and the city request.

Also, when you link us to the building pages for corrections, be sure to link us the the building page, not the drawing page.

This is an example of a building page, and what we need you to link us to:

http://skyscraperpage.com/cities/?buildingID=19983

This is the example of the drawing page, and what we don't need you to link us to:

http://skyscraperpage.com/diagrams/?b19983

Lastly, when you want to make corrections you must label the thread "Correction(s)" and bold what needs to be corrected, or simply state what needs to be corrected and include the source.
