(only need country output btw, sorry for confusion)

From the emails:

Michael:

The CentralNotice on en.W does not work for me. As I'm in the UK it should redirect to http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org.uk/, but clicking on it does nothing (stays on the same WP page).

Richard:

This has happened to myself and at least one other person, so isn't a one-off glitch. It would be nice to get this working ASAP.

Multiple browsers and platforms.

Code is at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-template-wlm_2013 . Had a change today, maybe that's causing problems

Could be location related (UK vs GB vs SCT vs ENG, etc etc)

Problem happens every time notice is clicked.

Reported on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.

Output from geoiplookup:
*Chrome Geo = {"city":"London","country":"GB","lat":"51.514198","lon":"-0.093100","IP":"2.222.167.57","netmask":"24"}

Yup, GB is the correct code. Easy fix: Add GB (and just keep around UK to be sure) at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-template-wlm_2013

It seems the GB/UK was playing up. I changed it to GB in the centralnotice, should work fine, please confirm.

Added Ryan, he created this last year and maybe he can review it if we didn't overlook something.

I would expect that if there is not a country match that the banner would send the user to http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/?pk_campaign=Centralnotice . That's how we crashed our website two years ago ;-)

This appears to have been resolved and the banner is now working.
