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.

Nothing wrong with Paul and Jack's work, but I've been developing some new boulders round there so might be easier if I can add in the new buttresses and get the climbs in the right order.
Crag Requested. Cookie Cliff
I've been adding routes to this crag for the last year or two. The current moderator hasn't checked any of them. I have more to add and some re-organizing could be done.
I've added you.
Sorry, there's only 2 mods per crag. You mind liaising with the existing mods to see if either wants to give up their position?
Just had a word with Jack and he's happy to pass it on.
Thanks, I've added you.
Thanks Paul.
I'm moderator for this crag:
I think it's too big, it includes different crags which are kilometers away from each other both vertically and horizontally. Is there an easy way I can split some of the buttresses into separate crags?
You can add the news crags here: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/addcrag.php
Once they're approved and made public, please drop us a message (https://www.ukclimbing.com/general/email.php?d=8) and an admin can move the climbs/buttresses between crags.
One more Ruin Bank thing. There's an empty duplicate record here which should be got rid of.
Thanks, I've linked Ruin Bank Woods to the BMC RAD entry and overridden their text with the old text.
Could I be added to Pike Hill please? Current mod seems to be inactive.

I’ve left the central belt so will no longer be contributing to the polish here. There may or may not be much more to moderate on this now anyway but the odd route magics itself out of nowhere from time to time.
Any chance I could get joint moderation of Hare Crags? Some new buttresses to add and quite a few problems. Current moderator seems a bit sleepy.
Thanks!

hi Paul
on this theme, I sent a request on 09 May to Michael, the moderator for Montanejos but as yet have not received a reply
thanks
Les Morris
I've added you to Montanejos
sorry Paul, there is a misunderstanding
I was making an enquiry to Michael about a bird ban in Montanejos . I had no intention of proposing myself as a moderator
Ah, no worries. If you submit a change to the crag info then Michael will get an alert to approve the change: https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/addcrag.php?id=3525
I usually approve changes for the crags in the morning if it's a simple change too.

Could I be added to Mytholm Steep Quarry please?
Cheers. Could 'Campsite' be removed from the crag title?
I'm not sure why but I noticed here - Roaches Skyline that there are a load of boulders that are mis-labelled as boulder circuits, even though the circuit tick box is unticked!
I'm the moderator for Saint-Loup in Switzerland. The only two photos here are actually for the completely unrelated mountain Pic Saint-Loup (in France). Is there any way the location tag could be removed on the photos? I'm worried it's giving a slightly misleading impression of the crag!
Good afternoon, any chance of being added to Dalt Quarry so I can update the position, order and grades of the routes? Many thanks for your time, Emilio.

Hi,
I've just taken on Craig Pant Ifan (Tremadog) as a moderator as I noticed it was needing one. I've been going through comments/updates and have a couple questions if anyone can help:
1) I need to delete a few duplicate climbs. I therefore need to transfer some peoples ticks from one climb to another. Any idea how to go about this? The moderator FAQ mentions it but doesn't say how.
2) What's the meaning of the hollow star in the star voting system? I'd always assumed it was for unrepeated routes where repeat ascents hadn't yet confirmed the stars (common to many guidebooks), but thinking about it that doesn't really make sense given that anyone can vote a hollow star, and there aren't 2 or 3 hollow stars for proposed 2* or 3* new routes. So what's the story with the hollow star? I've provisionally assigned a proposed new route a hollow star (instead of the FA's proposed 1*) and want to check this is right.
Apologies if all this has been covered in the past, I did a search and couldn't find anything.
Cheers, Mike
Would be keen to clean up Stac an Eich, Ballachulish. Stac An Eich things are a bit jumbled.
> 1) I need to delete a few duplicate climbs. I therefore need to transfer some peoples ticks from one climb to another. Any idea how to go about this? The moderator FAQ mentions it but doesn't say how.
Just click on Delete. If there's existing ticks, it'll ask you which route to move them to on the next page.

Hollow star is 0 stars. I can see why this looks confusing now, sorry about that.

Thanks Paul.
That zero star seems totally obvious now! Cheers for clarifying.
Can No match for crag id:12095 be deleted as a separate crag, and included as part of Achmelvich Crags?
There aren't any climbs added to it anyway, but there is one photo.
Crag requested Binnein Shuas
Lots of new routes to sort out, many of which I have climbed or belayed.

Added you to those 2.
Duplicate crags for Hoghton here...
Thanks, sorted.
All the boulders at Lawrencefield - Bole Hill Sidings at the bottom of the page - should not be classed as boulder circuits. I tried to change them to standard boulders but it didn’t seem to work!
Only the full circuit should be tagged as a circuit like here: La Canche aux Merciers
The individual problems should be listed as normal boulder problems.
I agree but it appears that they’ve been added as circuits and I can’t change them back to standard boulder problems. eg.

Sorry there was a bug in displaying the data. should be fixed now
Crag available - Wissenfluh
User rlrs emailed me about taking it over - think he is fairly local and alas I no longer am
So happy just to hand it over.
Please could you add me as second moderator to Wissenfluh, I have cleared it with the existing moderator. Some small updates to do.
Thanks!
Added you. The previous mod had already left it.
Thanks!
I can tidy up the recently renovated Notice Board Crag.
Thanks, I've added you.
I'm happy to clean up the duplication between No match for crag id:3459, No match for crag id:13743 and Foel Goch 831m (Glyderau). They should all be merged into one crag really.
Also, talking of Foel Goch, I noticed it's a little messy trying to distinguish between the different Foel Gochs across N Wales. I suggest the following name changes would make this clearer:
Foel Goch 611m (near Bala) could be renamed "Foel Goch 611m (near Bala)".
Foel Goch 605m (near Llanberis) could be renamed "Foel Goch 605m (near Llanberis)".
Foel Goch 831m (Glyderau) could be renamed "Foel-goch 831m (Glyderau)" [if not obsolete from merging above].
Y Foel Goch 805m (Glyderau) could be renamed "Y Foel Goch 805m (Glyderau)". Note Y Foel Goch 805m (Glyderau) links to the same crag.
Please could you add me as second moderator to Pantymwyn (Devil's Gorge)? I'd like to tidy up how the independent and link-up routes and boulder problems are presented.
Ta
I've added you.
Done the merge, renames and added you as a mod for Foel Goch 831m (Glyderau)
Thanks for these changes.
Noticed that the BMC RAD link for High Tor, Matlock is to some other esoteric High Tor in the East Midlands

Can tidy up Craig Cwm Glas Bach
I've added you.
OK, some stuff there needs moving to other crags, variously Craig Simdde Sian, Gravestones/ Hidden Wall/ Yr Ochr Wen/ Twll Tin, Ponc Knoll and Cwm Glas Bach Boulders. I've put buttress dividers to show what goes where. It's a bit of a mess, that Clogwyn Mawr Cwmglas area.
Thanks, I've made those changes.

Please could you also add me as second mod for Baggy Point - Needs updating in line with the new guide.
Hi,
The current moderator is inactive. He was last there in 2006 and only climbed one route. Also he appears to be inactive on the forum since 2011.
I was up there on Friday some of the grading is hopelessly wrong. Please would you hand the crag over to me and I'll tidy it up.
Phil
Added you to those 2.
The previous mod had already relinquished it. I've added you as the main mod.
Hi again

Can you add me as the second moderator for all crags between and including Thorn’s Beach Slabs and Lower Penhallic so that I can bring anything that needs it in line with the bit of the new guide that I’m writing?
I’m already the moderator for some of the crags along this stretch of coast but Mark Kemball has suggested that it would be a good idea if I have access to all of them for moderation purposes.
Would you prefer me to send links to all of them or can you manage without?
Many thanks
Richard
Could you add me as extra mod for the Whangie, East Dunbartonshire?
I've added you.
Hi Richard, it would be great if you could send me a list of crag links please? paul@ukclimbing.com
Can be combined with the rest of Rubha Hunish? Also can I be added to moderate the latter?
The Pagoda buttress on Kinder south looks like it's location is wrong looking at the satellite map. I belive it is the rocks north of the path and east of it's current location where Noe Stool is, unfortunately I can't change it.
https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/modbuttress.php?id=1687
Could I have Orchan Stones please?
I've added you.
Sure, I've merged those.
Do others just accept everything that gets sent through as new or do you actually look if it's new or not?
Myself, if I know its been done before even if its not recorded I don't. A crag could end up with hundreds of pointless eliminates which just confuse people.
Swastika Stones please
I've added you
> Myself, if I know its been done before even if its not recorded I don't. A crag could end up with hundreds of pointless eliminates which just confuse people.
I think just do as you're already doing. Sounds like a reasonable approach to me.
> A crag could end up with hundreds of pointless eliminates which just confuse people.
There are some pretty mindboggling examples of this, where pretty much every conceivable configuration of holds gets a name and quite often some stars on here.
I doubt it's a priority, but it would be handy if you could choose to show/hide climbs that are marked as 'stupid link-ups and eliminates for local obsessives'
Message for @Gambit
Hi, looking to add a new boulder called SXBW located at 53.340239, -1.609446. Doesn't seem to be included on here, on the Rockfax app or in the Rockfax books for either Burbage West which is nearest or Higgar Tor which is second nearest.
I've 7 or 8 problems in the V0 & V1 range to add with pics that me and a friend have been playing with while I regain confidence after a mishap at Stanage.
If you can create the buttress then I'm happy to populate the rest, I think I can remember it all after being mod for Cookson Park Boulder.
Thanks
I've added the boulder to the crag and added you as a crag mod for Burbage West
Thanks, could I moderate Rubha Hunish as well?
Sure, you've got it.
> I've added the boulder to the crag and added you as a crag mod for Burbage West
Thanks for that, I think I've spotted an issue with the Rockfax app after uploading stuff through the website here but I'll give it 24 hours to update / upload (and recheck my work) before raising the issue properly.
Craig y Castell Boulders should be renamed Craig y Castell Boulders to match the guidebook.

Something strange going on at Crystal Tips Wall. Those YDS graded routes that have been moved there definitely don't belong, it's a tiny obscure boulder wall in Gwynedd!
Hi Paul,
Can I be added as a moderator for Goddard's Quarry please? I've gone there quite a lot, and climbed there with Nick who has added most of the recent routes, so think I can sort out some that are in wrong place, and add usable approach descriptions to sectors that are so far lacking them.
