Rewriting locations

  • totenkopf by totenkopf

    Hi all first of all been away for about a year and started back on a diary that could be considered boring, sanitation but anyway here's the question .
    one person was writing the daily reports and was writing everything in longhand cursive , I could nor figure out the locations that he was writing in.
    a few pages forward someone else took over ,wrote everything in block letters and lo and behold all the town names starting popping up on the google map as I typed them in correctly.
    emphasized texthow can I now go back and put the correct names in the location icons ?

    Thanks Frank

    You can't Frank I'm afraid. Once a page is completed it cannot be "retrieved" for re-tagging. However don't worry because each page gets tagged by 5 different people and some of them will hopefully have seen the clearer place names before or worked out what they were.
