I am grouping Landis & Gyr cards as they are known internationally, so it will be possible to see all D cards together at a glance, for example, even then fragmented groups will disappear so that Catawiki becomes a well-arranged and clear catalogue.

Landis & Gyr A = Advertising cards

Landis & Gyr D = Final cards

Landis & Gyr De = Demo cards

Landis & Gyr O = Oil platform maps

Landis & Gyr P = Prison / Jail cards

Landis & Gyr S = Special cards

Landis & Gyr Se = Service cards

Landis & Gyr T = Test cards

Landis and Gyr Ü = Überwachung maps

That will indeed be an improvement. It's a mess on Catawiki now, especially L & amp; G

If these changes are made, it will, if the field "series" is used for this, the mess will only get bigger!

Now the classification for the Netherlands is according to "Biegel" and it is type (D, C, G, R, RDL, etc.) will be searched fine.

Changes to the "Series" field will not be approved.

The format proposed by Phonocard of the L & amp; G types can be applied in the "Type" field. I can adjust the preselection of that field.

Indeed, always consult in advance with administrators for far-reaching ideas. Perhaps naive of me, but I assumed this had happened, given the certainty of the first communication.

So much enthusiasm and not even a manager? Don't we want that at CataWiki? Just learn some collaboration and this collection category is also sorted in a nice way.

I'm not a collector, but it sounds good.

Right, this is not a Biegel catalogue, this is Catawiki

I worked on the Biegel catalog for years and many cards are not in it (embargo) also many cards that he had in stock are expensive and very difficult to find very low.

There are also many variants missing here.

Everyone at the phone card fair now uses Colnect because they don't like Catawiki when it comes to phone cards.

But the gift card collectors are now all walking the calling cards fair with Catawiki on their iPads after my 'major' changes and everyone is raving about this feature on Catawiki.

I am also trying to revive the phone cards section of Catawiki.

I can indeed agree that people walk around the telephone card fairs with their iPads to consult the gift card catalog via Catawiki.

It is not the approach to the work that has already been done in the telephone card catalog. completely nullified, but only make changes so that all collectors can use this catalog to their satisfaction.

As Phonocard has rightly pointed out, the Biegel catalog is not complete. It is a handy catalog for the 'picture collector', but in this time, where newly released telephone cards are scarce, collectors need to study serial numbers, among other things. It will therefore be better for the catalog in general that it will be possible, in a visible way, to apply these elements.

It is not a radical change, certainly not because there is almost nothing on Catawiki, but that a Defenitive Landis & Gyr card is called M series in Senegal and CHD series in Chad, no one understands that, no one can explain to me what M series stands for in Senegal? That's pretty much like calling a Norwegian Forest cat series the Pitbull series!?!

Well, the first country I have set up completely is Seychelles (there were 0 of them before!)

http://www.catawiki.nl/catalogus/phonecards/countries/993713-seychelles

If I pay for an advertisement on a website and post this link in social media to get people to Catawiki, everything had changed, much to my shock, the entire original Landis & Gyr numbering (I have the original numbering from many countries, publishers and telephones). frames at home) was removed and a fantasy numbering was added!, if you put 50 hours into this (the smallest country about) then the tears are in your eyes.

I've been working with phone cards for about 12 hours a day since August 1984, when I see that it's an unorganized mess with higgledy-piggledy pictures, pictures at 25 DPI that you need a magnifying glass for, the right back with the wrong front or vice versa then my hands are itching to make this nice and in order.

I notice that people like my work on Colnect, cards are now being stolen from Catawiki, the logo is being polished away and placed on Colnect!

Now there is a complete country on it: Top.

But if I then use the images of 5580925 and 5580923 next to each other, they are exactly the same. This means that 1 of the 2 items is incorrect (or both are incorrect, given the information in the details).

We expect administrators to always be open to new insights. We expect users with ideas to contact administrators first as soon as they want to work outside the structures established by those administrators. Otherwise you will get clashes like this, where the atmosphere must first be restored before constructive cooperation can take place. (If that works at all, because there are quickly heels in the sand.) By looking around, existing structures can generally be recognized.

I realize that in many sections there is still too little documentation in that area. That doesn't make it any easier ... I'm constantly improving that, but it's a lot of work.

I don't hear anything about my change in Japan (I have set it to region), isn't it strange that one can be neatly lined up and the other not?!?

Phonocard, is that your change? I have spent days changing incorrect entries in the region numbers! The only change you have made is to add a name to the region number. That is an improvement, but certainly not a change.

Regarding the differences in coding for similar cards from different countries, this has to do with the catalogs used in the different countries.

The according to you commonly used Colnect also uses the in the country itself coding used. So for the Netherlands "Biegel".

By placing the serial number in the field "Number addition" you deprive the users to sort the cards by number. If the serial number is placed in the appropriate field "Number in series", it is possible to sort.

I will now undo this change, which I asked you to do.

If you want an L & amp; G format so badly, you can use the appropriate field "Type".

There are 4 catalogs in the Netherlands, Biegel is one of them, and that catalog is not correct as I said and Biegel has not been to the telephone card fair for 15 years, you haven't for 20 years, the world has changed!

After all, there is much more than what is in the Biegel catalog, people have the right to know what exists.

And like I said, I can do a lot of countries there. set up completely, but with the correct coding and no fantasy code.

Of course people have the right to know what is there. But that does not mean that your science is the only correct one and that your science should be pushed through at Catawiki without consultation.

Furthermore, I do not see any reaction in your last message to my comment about the Japanese cards. .

What I did with Japan is exactly what I did with Landis & Gyr, and Seychelles has 0 on it, Mauritius has 0 on it, Bermuda has 0 on it etc. etc. etc. completely empty countries .

of Landis & Gyr service cards there was only 1 on the whole of Catawiki, if I adjust that one card to the series and add 300 and there are 301 cards, the whole series is NOT messed up, there was just NOTHING on it at all!

I'm going to set up many countries completely, and that's with the knowledge of the original lists from Landis & Gyr, so not my science but that of the printer.

So there is NO question of mixing things up but putting them in a row.

And then people will soon be able to enjoy maps that have never been on it, and have not been in the Biegel and also not on Colnect !!!

A first for Catawiki that will make everyone happy!

I suspect that this is a good time for you to give each other a call. Experience has shown that things will progress faster than via e-mail or forum. As long as the starting point is that there must be a nice 'end result' ... Before you know it, you will be having coffee together with your shared passion. Believe you me.

Oh, Wim and his colleague do know me Arco, they always brought me whole suitcases of tickets at Vlaardingen station ;-)

The result is also very nice, look at PTT 87 for example, there were 8 tickets scotch and crooked and now 170

http://www.catawiki.nl/catalogus/telefoonkaarten/series/3258093-ptt-87

My profit is in the people who give me cards at the fair that are not in the list, so I have discovered 2 new ones and they are now included.

Just like with the gift cards, people come to bring me cards that are not on Catawiki, magnificent ! :-)

greetings

Dennis

Hi Dennis,

I'll dive deeper into this soon. It may be useful to stop entering until there is clarity. Or you have to agree to change all your input afterwards as soon as that clarity is available, even if it does not meet your needs. I would like a quick answer to that.

Changing afterwards doesn't seem like a good idea, given the enormous amount that will be imported. Administrators are already having a hard time, which means frustration for both the importer and the administrators.

Consultation is always better.

Hi Arco

Changing it afterwards is no problem, I will only enter where nothing is written on almost anything and that is enough, really

For the sake of clarity I have many original lists of telecoms and printers

I also have the largest library about telephone cards in the world, I have put some of them on Catawiki, the rest will follow ... http://www.catawiki.nl/ catalog / magazines-newspapers / genre-theme / 2225485-phone cards

I hear it

DisneyMeentwijc, I mainly post where there is nothing on it yet, so that can't be the problem, for many countries there are 0 items on Catawiki! Take Mauritius 0 cards!, I'm going to set them up completely this weekend after the major international phone card fair in Paris, from 0 to all cards can't cause frustration, there's nothing there now!

The Swiss Landis & Gyr S cards have been updated and are now complete on Catawiki, from 42 to 301 cards!
The cards are now all in chronological perfection (the original Landis & Gyr / PTT numbering).

https://www.catawiki.nl/catalogus/phonecards/series/3264551-landis-gyr-s?page=1&field=SO_145&order=a&external=0&view=g&page=1&vg=all&type=s&language=nl&area_id=3264551&user_id=&stamp_filter=&filters% 5Bin_wish_list%5D=&filters%5B8265%5D=&filters%5B8263%5D=&filters%5B8267%5D=&filters%5B7071%5D=3289489&filters%5B7051%5D=&filters%5B8273%5D=&filters%5B7041%5D=&filters%5B7031 5D=&filters%5Byear_from%5D=1990&filters%5Byear_to%5D=1996&filters%5Btitle%5D=

Soon the other countries will also be updated 'Anno Futuro', shall we say

lots of collecting fun
