Test pull of exif location. Sinking Waters Sunk photo taken at coordinates Geocoding failed
Category:Trails Testing stripping parenthetical disambiguation (e.g. Ridge Top (Roan Mountain State Park)) from the display text, but not the link. Alright solution, had to use odd double close nowiki to get the space recognized so the #explode would use the " (" as the split and omit the trailing space.
