If you do not see a Chain listed and feel it should be added, please fill out this form to submit it for review.
Experienced editors may also use the Place Name Harmonization script to assist with this process.
Place Locking
Editors are encouraged to fill in all available information about a place. A place can be locked once it minimally has the following information:
- Correct Category
- Name - Formatted with Title Case (Use capital letters for the first letter in each word)
- Area or Point with Destination Point in the correct location
- Address - House number and correct street name
Once complete, NC uses the following minimum place locks:
| Place Category | Minimum Lock |
|---|---|
| Airports, Hospitals, and Freeway Rest Areas | 5 |
| All other places | 3 |
Other important places such as major tourist attractions prone to editing and major parks can be locked at 4 or 5 as necessary to protect their integrity.
