The percentage is not a judgement on the municipality: it measures how much we know about it. A place with no photo or text still exists; what is missing is someone to document it. The data comes from Wikidata, OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, and anyone can add there whatever is missing.

Still to be photographed

117 places in Melón have no image at all. Uploading one to Wikimedia Commons with the site's coordinates is enough for it to appear here at the next update, without asking anyone's permission.

Correct or add

If something is missing, if there is an error, or if the council wants to contribute its own inventory, there are three routes and all of them are public:

Add it on OpenStreetMap or Wikidata: it comes in by itself, at the next update.
Upload geotagged photos to Commons.
