Desmond Tutu sad death has been reported with this plaque lurking in the background. I wasn't sure if this one (that was made in Monmouth) had been installed, so I was thrill to see it albeit in a sad BBC news item. Victuallers (talk) 20:13, 27 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

QR-Pedia Counter down

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Dear all, we are supporting the Wehrtechnische Studiensammlung in Koblenz, Germany with an experiment using the QR-Pedia Codes for explaining exhibits of the museum. Unfortunately, the evaluation counter has been down for 2 weeks. What to do? Best regards Felix

QRpedia broken 2025

Latest comment: 10 months ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Once again, QRpedia is broken! My usual tests Test de.Schütting, Test en.Schütting, Test sv Rathaus reveal errors: if the selected language version matches the device or browser settings, the article is delivered. Otherwise, the search is ‘simulated’ and a ‘not found’ message is displayed.

Cross-checking with URLs without barriers confirms: The problem is universal! See: https://en.qrwp.org/Bremen https://de.qrwp.org/Bremen According to CSV data from the statistics page for ‘Bremer Rathaus’, qrwp.org has not found any foreign language versions since August 24.
