Problems with user's country about github-awards

[vdaubry]

Yep, I had to geocode most location with Openstreetmap which is far less accurate than Google Maps API.
I'll gecode the corresponding profile again

Same for my profile:

[sirwolfgang]

It says I am in the philippines, rather then United States

[gkcgautam]

It shows Serbia as my country, although I have mentioned Mumbai, India in my profile :(

[scottrblock]

Keeps showing me in the Philippines too, rather than United States.

Would you mind looking at my geocode?

My github profile has "St Andrew, Scotland" entered, but award site is showing me as "Chambersburg, United states"

Mine has "Russian federation" for "UK" in my github profile. I changed my location to "Guildford, UK" in the hope it might improve!

[whackashoe]

Mine also says Philippines; I am in US

Perhaps also related, my country is 'the Netherlands', but it also occurs as just Netherlands..

Same in my profile, no matter how I write the city name, it never can get my city. https://github.com/andres-root

Mine also says Spain but I'm in Iran

I'm working on fixing locations now, i will update ranking today. Thanks for your patience

[vdaubry]

Locations are fixed, you'll see your updated profile when the ranking calcultation is finished

[pfefferle]

I am still located at the Philippines...

[vdaubry]

That's what i said : "you'll see your updated profile when the ranking calcultation is finished" ;)

It's a bit long to compute, it will be available sometime today

[pfefferle]

Ah ok, sorry and thanks 😉

Hi. I'm still seeing my location as Buenos Aires, Argentina when my contributions were made from Montevideo, Uruguay. Thanks.

[vdaubry]

@mcustiel Can you try to update your profile again ? (button "refresh your profile" under your avatar)

[mcustiel]

@vdaubry Done.

[vdaubry]

Ok i fixed your location

[mcustiel]

Great! Thank you.
