Hi,
'IN-UT' is the ISO 3166-2:IN code for the state. It should indeed be possible to automatically convert those.
The circles are probably more tricky. Before I revamped the tables into the current shape, we needed that to create the unique identifier. Probably it is best to just ignore the circles for the sake of this app - because it will only lead to confusion since some states have them, and some don't. And one of the circles is even names after a city in a different state... Mentioning the district is probably more helpful.
Best, Lodewijk

Thanks Jon. It is working :-)
- I see a state called "IN-UT"
- And inside Tamil Nadu .. Instead of Chennai and Thrissur circle it is C
and T
Can you fix this issues ?
Thanks, naveenpf

Hi Naveen This should be solved in the next application update (hopefully later today)
Thanks Jon that will really helpful.
I disagree with your statement that the app will not be useful - it has a 'find nearby monuments;' feature which should help India Wiki Loves Monumenteers to find monuments on their doorstep so there is no need for them to even use the list!

Hi Philip/Mathew,
In case of India, until monuments list as separated as statewise; it will not be useful. User will be unable to browse 4000+ monuments from single list.
Thanks, naveenpf

Adding to Phil's note, I think only the International, Israeli and
the
U.S. sites are currently using a prominent button to encourage downloads of the Android app. If other countries want to do the same, I think it would be excellent. If you don't like the image used on the app with the lightning (I know someone found it too dark), we could do other images or no
image
at all. For the U.S. site, we substituted an image of the Golden Gate Bridge. http://wikilovesmonuments.us/
Anyway, please discuss any concerns with the design or anything else here and let us know if we can help facilitate more promotion of the app through the national sites.
Couple of other stories in the past few days that mention the app:
