UKC

Please use this thread to post moderating requests, problem crags and suggestions. If you do post about a crag then please use the Logbooks 'Insert crag link...' box above the reply box so that a link is included which makes things lot easier to sort than if just a crag name is written.

Existing Moderators
If you moderate a crag but find yourself ignoring the update emails, or you have lost interest, or you have moved away then please could you remove yourself as moderator using the button at the base of the crag moderation page. Then reply to this thread with 'Crag Available' and the crag link inserted so that someone else can volunteer.

New Moderators
If you would like to moderate a crag, and feel you could do a better job than the current moderator, then reply to this thread with 'Crag Requested', the crag name and link so that we can arrange a switch if appropriate. We can now add second moderators to crags as well.

Thanks for everyone's help with UKC Logbook moderating. We are aware that this is sometimes a tiresome task and all your efforts are appreciated.

The previous UKC Moderator threads have got too big and has now been locked. Here they are for reference

Copied over from the other thread as I think it was missed:

Craig Ty Mawr (Tremeirchion) is misspelled, should be Tremeirchion, or better to match the guidebook Craig Ty Mawr (Tremeirchion).

Thanks, updated.

Crag requested : Chulilla

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/chulilla-3789/#nanopark

Never get response for updates 

I've added you. Should probably split that area up into separate crags at some point. It's getting pretty big.

Yeah, more and more development every time I come 🤣

I'd like to do a few updates to guadalest

I've added you to  Guadalest

Kyparissi is misspelled. It's Kyparissi.

Thanks, that's updated.

Is it worth removing Fiend from any crags he is moderating? When did he leave here?

Hi, can I be added to Cammachmore Bay as second mod please.

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/cammachmore_bay-8800/

Could you delete https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/dragonera-28589/#overview please? It will be superseded by https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/mpougazi-29642/#mpougazi as dragonera is a buttress that's part of the larger area.

Im gonna fill in the buttresses etc. for Mpougazi once the crags been approved.

Could you merge https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/manikia_-_the_lower_valley-29547/ in to https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/the_lower_valley-29644/#the_lower_... please?

Done, thanks.

There is some Rockfax consolidation weirdness going on with Curved Ridge (Grade-3) and Curved Ridge (Winter) (II 3).

Could you change the name of  The Valley to 'Valley'? I've added a few more sectors up and down the valley so 'lower valley' doesn't make sense any more. Thanks!

No match for crag id:18748 should be deleted (it's a whole range of mountains, not a summit or crag, and has no routes added anyway).

Tonacliffe Quarry please.. doesn't seem to be being updated despite many new routes submitted from Lancs guide so I'll sort it!

Done

I've added you.

Cringle Crag Please, been developing some new routes and areas. Cheers

I've added you.

When moderating crags with UKC in Night Mode, the Buttress names are almost the same colour as their background, which makes them very hard to read - is it possible to tweak the colour?

Thanks, that should look better now.

Can you add me to Wintour's Leap as a crag moderator. I've discussed this with the existing moderator.  Tidying up of routes needed and new information on the re equipping of pegs etc to be updated. 

I've added you to wintours.

Can I be added as crag moderator to  Cikola Canyon please? Thanks!

Hi Paul,

There is a glitch in the logbook stats.

A "beefy Bert" sent me an update request for Blurred Lines (7c)

It is coming up as a trad route in his logbook but what I think he means is it is showing as his hardest (trad, clean with beta) in his "stats".

I understand this is a problem because my own "stats" show Daylight Robbery as my hardest trad on-site. Both routes are obviously labeled "sport".

Both of those climbs should be fixed now, cheers. Let us know if you find any others

Still showing up as trad in "Stats" in my and beefy bert's logbook.

I think that may just be a cache issue, can you try visiting https://www.ukclimbing.com/clear_cache.php, and/or try force refreshing to see if it updates?

An odd request perhaps. Could we have a new rock type added, please?  Molasse.

It niggles me that Buoux is categorised as limestone, when it really very much isn't. The rock is a mixture of sandstone (sandy deposits) and normally-deposited limestone (from marine life), and climbs much more like sandstone than limestone, at least in my experience.

Is this to micro-niche? 

Thanks that works however my "stats" for hardest trad route have shifted to a crappy 6c+ at Stoney. This route also appears to be correctly labeled as sport.

Also fixed

Crag Requested: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/vixen_tor-223/

Be niggled no longer  Buoux

I've added you

I feel beautifully whole now; thanks!

Don't suppose you could add me to  Kay Nest ?

Cheers

Have added you, cheers

Can I please be added to  Split Rock (Milton Hill Quarry)

Thanks

I've added you as the main mod, I used to moderate the crag but I dont live in the area any more.

Crag Requested:: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/torbryan_quarry-365/

Wildcat

WRT the new access agreement It would be a good idea to add the banned symbol against each of the Upper Tor routes in the UKC logbooks.

Have added you

Have update those, cheers

Just looking at the changes at Wildcat reminded me of something I noticed the other day but that probably isn't worth it's own thread...

On the main page for a crag you get the  following in the key:

?  Climbs can't be verified by a crag moderator, and they need more information to confirm it.

But if you click on any of the climbs you get the following message with a different symbol:

† This climb cannot be verified, and the crag moderator needs more information.

Should the symbols and text be the same?

Also 

"Climbs are no longer climbable." to me this would be a fallen down route or one affected by rockfall.  Personally I think there should there be separate category for climbs where access is not allowed as this is different to the former, or the text should be amended to reflect both categories.

Hiya. Can you please add me to Trowbarrow:

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/trowbarrow-467/

I emailed the moderator last year but didn’t get a response. The ‘chossy area left of Yellow Wall’ actually has some good climbing and needs updating and there are a couple of additions needed from the current comprehensive guide. 
 

Thank you. 
 

Col. 

I've added you as the second moderator.

Voiture Balai (5a) is incorrectly shown as a trad climb, it is a fully bolted sport climb and the 4c  grade should be French sport not UK trad

Thank you. 

Updated that for you

Should be fixed now, cheers

As crag moderator, is there a way to move people's logbook ascents from one climb to another?

If you're deleting a climb it offers you the option of moving logged ascents to another climb. Other than that I don't think there's a way (short of Paul et al doing it).

Can I be a mod for Leonidio Area C? A lot of stuff needs updating, inc new climbs at Sector Phobos and grade updates for Jupiter. 
 

Can I be added to Annot please. Thanks!

I've added you as the second moderator.

There's already 2 mods for that crag (which is the max). Not sure what the deal is but might be an idea to message them and see if they mind you taking over?

Cheers have done. Rachel Pearce was one of the mods and she’s on here a lot so reckon she’ll let me know fairly soon (and guessing she is back in the UK now and thus not especially fussed about mod privileges here in Greece!)

BTW I’ve removed myself from moderator at  Chulilla Town - Boca de La Voz & Barranquillo/Falfiguera - did a fair bit of tidying up when I was there in November but I’ve no plans to go back any time soon so didn’t seem make sense to keep myself as listed for that. Having said that, Chulilla really needs breaking down into different pages for different crags. The current page covers hundreds and hundreds of climbs at present and is pretty unwieldy!

Crag requested Carrock Fell Crag

Whilst I’m waiting on a handover for Leonidio, could you do me a favour and upgrade Amiral (6c) to 6c? That’s what it is in the new guide (and I climbed to and can confirm!), as my girlfriend led it today as her first outdoor 6c redpoint and she really wants to have it in her logbook

And whilst I’m out here,  Vlychada needs updating too, so might as well give me mod privileges for that one too!

Done and done.

It looks like there's already a couple of mods on there, and at a glance it seems in fairly good order. Might be worth messaging the existing mods and if it's some smaller changes they could tweak it, or if it's larger changes they can hang up their moderating boots for the crag so you can take over.

Hi, I was a Carrock Fell moderator until the last month or so - I don’t really understand how I lost moderator status. I’ve spent a lot of time over the last few years tidying up the logbook and am responsible for it being in good order - it was a bit of a mess before and have had lots of positive comments locally. I climb there regularly, live locally and I would like to continue to keep on top of it. 
 

Thanks, Duncan 

Thanks for your work on the crag Duncan. Im not sure why the mods were swapped around so I'll wait for someone from UKC to chime in.

Can i be added to  The Exmoor Coast Traverse please? I've spent quite a lot of time there, visit a couple times a year and would like to update some route descriptions etc etc?

Thanks! 

Done. Im impressed you've been back for several visits!

Can I please be added as a second moderator to 

Terminal Area Crags

Colletta Crags

There are new routes and grades to be updated.

Hi Paul. Could I co-moderate or take over this crag, please? There are very few of the climbs in, and I'm not getting a reply from the current moderator. Thanks.

Redipollos

I've added you as second mod for both of those.

I've added you as a second mod.

Crag requested: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/bell_tor-1529/

I've added you as the second mod.

Would it be possible to do a group change of the order of the climbs at  Denham Quarry. Currently they appear to be listed from Right to Left rather than Left to Right as per the latest rockfax or BMC Lancashire guide.

I thought you used to be able to change the order of a crag by number but it now seems to be a locked.

Please can I be added as a second moderator to Corstorphine Boulders? Got the OK from the current moderator.

I've added you as the second mod.

I'll have a look at this later, it'll be a bit of a job as I haven't been to the crag in ages and want to make sure I don't mess it up.

Might be worth dropping Paul a message about the number ordering. Seems to still be working for me.

Crag Requested: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/combestone_tor-20577/

happy to swap them round manually if required if added as a 2nd mod if you can't do a group change.

I've added you as second mod, been a bit busy at work so havent had the time to do it myself.

Added you as second mod.

Hi Paul, would you be able to add me as the 2nd mod for  Ban-y-gor

I've added you as second mod.

Got clearance for Leonidio from former mod - can I have

Cheers!

My local tidyup continues.  Crag requested: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/black_hill_boulders-1527/

Can I please be added to Clogwyn Yr Adar? Thanks

I've added you.

Can I get added as second moderator to the two crags below? I am in CA and can clean these up.

Malibu Creek State Park

Stoney Point

I've added you to Malibu but not Stoney point as that's already got two mods. You could try getting in touch with one of the existing mods and see if they'd be happy for you to take over.

Crag Requested

Hi, I would like to add some winter climbs and mountain summits in the Lofoten Islands, Norway please. 

Crag requested. 
 

Hiya, can you please add me as a moderator to Warton Upper Crag:

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/warton_upper_crag-1437/

Thank you. 
 

Col. 

I've added you as the second mod.

Is there a particular crag or crags you want to add the climbs too? I'm not sure how adding summits works so I'll wait for one of the UKC bods to drop by.

Hi Jarek,

If it's an existing crag you want to add the summit to, please using the Add Missing Climb button in the bottom right and select Special - Summit for the grade.

If crag doesn't exist in the database please use this page: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/addcrag.php?hill=1

Cheers, Paul.

Thank you. 

"Moderators Updates to this page are checked bya UKC volunteer"

I know it shouldn't bother me, but please can you moderate this autotext

I guess this might be getting fixed in the new update but if not - 

Parat-Seigneur (TD- 6a) & No match for climb id:99463 are the same route and everyone is logging the one not on rockfax so I guess would be good to shuffle things around.

Thanks, that's sorted.

Hi Paul -

This looks like a spurious entry:

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/warton_crag-1261/ 

Both climbs already covered at Pinnacle.

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/warton_pinnacle_crag-469/ 

The gallery pic belongs on Warton Small, the seaside shots are just vaguely local.

Also this bit of text on crags with single moderators:
"Moderators Updates to this page are checked bya UKC volunteer"

bya is not a word

How to correct the grade of a climb listed on a crag overview page? When I click through to the climb it is graded correctly E5 (I just updated it) but it remains incorrect (E3) on the overview page.

And will someone claim offence for the word sh*t in a route name?! (I won't!)

Pigs in Shit (E5 6a)

Thanks!!

Thanks, I've moved those climbs over. I'll fixed that typo too.

I think you just need to refresh the crag page. It shows E5 for me.

Thx. Restarted Firefox - all good.

Good work, thanks 👍

Hi Paul, could you add me as 2nd mod of  Noss Head. Fairly local and visited today thus happy to reshuffle it a bit (the guidebook pages are a minor work of fiction..)

Added you in as second mod.

Crag Requested: Dow Crag 

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/dow_crag_county_durham-17647/

Accidently stumbled across the boulders up at Dow Crag in County Durham, I would love to add a few of the other boulders there and some new routes.

No probs, added you in.

Could you move the following two climbs:

Ord Wall Traverse (7a)

Ordinary Traverse (7a)

To the new crag:  Ord Hill

Thanks.

No probs, moved those across for you.

Crag requested.

Weidener Wand

Needn't be permanent, just want to complete the route list and correct the ordering and spellings.

I've added you as second mod for the crag.

Also some misplaced/duplicate routes elsewhere:

Froschmann (VI+) belongs here  Weidener Wand

No match for climb id:636205 is duplicate of Alten Resten eine Chance (6b)

No match for climb id:636206 is a duplicate of Abseitsfalle (6c)

Chillout Zone (VIII+) belongs here  Clubbwall

Thank you!

Request to become a second moderator please. We are in the process of cleaning up and updating route descriptions in preparation for the new addition of Lancashire Rock.

Warton Main Quarry

Crag request: Brensholmen, Troms, Norway 

https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/brensholmen-3065/#maps

there’s a few new sectors which need to be added

I've added you as second mod.

Likewise added you as second mod here.

Carreg Alltrem is rather untidy and hasn’t been updated in about 4 years at least. Have just been for a climb there and also got the new Moelwyns guidebook so happy to do some tidying up. 

Could I add support to the Rhoscolyn area as second moderator please?

Thanks, I've added you here and Rhoscolyn.

Recent posts have made me think:

”Crag X has not been updated for Y years, could I be added as a second moderator?”

Perhaps we need a cull of inactive moderators?

Not a bad shout. I'll run some database queries tomorrow to see what would change if we removed moderators that haven't logged in in the last couple of years.

Hi Paul, it was I asking for Rhoscolyn and I think Paul was asking for Alltrem.

Whoops bit of a mixup - can you add me to Carreg Alltrem? Didn’t request Rhoscolyn (though happy to have a tidy up there too as I’ve the relevant Ground Up guidebook and last time I looked it was a bit of a mess)

Should all be straightened out now. Paul S you're a mod on Carreg Alltrem and Dave R you're a mod on Rhoscolyn.

Doh, sorry guys, I blame the 3 week old baby at home 😴

Thanks for sorting Remus!

Congratulations! (Take paternity leave, but we'd miss you)...

These two are the same place, I suggest some sort of merging? The map location of the original (Barker Scar) is correct, while the topo link for the 'cave' is dead.

Barker Scar  Barker Scar

Barker Scar Cave 

Thanks, they'll merged.

Why do some DWS routes appear with an S grade and others not? As moderator I can't figure out how to change this.

When you're editing/adding a climb you need to make sure the DWS symbol is selected, then it'll give you the option to add an S grade.
