Allow Website Users to Add Entries and Artwork about heartofthevalley HOT 4 OPEN

While this idea seems very interesting and it should have a place down the pipeline, currently I don't think it's a particularly pressing issue right now when we're still fleshing out the frontend and it'll be a logistical nightmare get everything working and bug free. First, we need to have a user authentication system in order for entries to be moderated and to ban abusive users. Second, we would need to implement a new method of interacting with the website. The current method that we use to find the locations is to enter the address into an instance of nominatim, which looks up and address and returns the GPS coordinates. Third, we would need to keep track of new entries in an efficient way that differentiates them from the entries scrapped from the SJ government website. We'll definitely come back to this issue at some point because having the community participate sounds great!

We can add an area where users can email issues or requests. This way we can also see if the site is being used based on the email activity.

Interesting, I think we can setup a contact form similar to the survey idea we were floating around, but perhaps more open ended and integrate it on the website.
