:It's possible. The graphics look the same as I remember, but they may have changed the underlying functionality. I never create accounts on wikis I'm cataloging for WikiIndex unless I actually plan to contribute to them. The most I test for is to see whether or not you are allowed to contribute anonymously. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 18:27, 26 September 2011 (PDT) | :It's possible.

::I tried to see exactly what the site offered for my local city (which I know about its parking facilities like the back of my hand - as I used to work in the local government department which looked after all government ''and'' commercial private parking). The site is purely a commercial money-grabbing listings directory. As proof to back up this statement, it has NO listings for 'free' parking for disabled/handicap drivers, and it has no listings for Park and Ride sites (which are numerous in my city, very large, and are never filled to capacity). Maybe when the site was originally set up, they may have allowed others to 'edit' it purely to 'flesh out' their content (to boost potential advertising revenue). And now, NO editing is allowed of existing entries (well maybe you can edit any entries you personally submitted previously), yet the site is very much alive and collecting commercial revenue. IMVHO, it is no different to say Yell.com (Yellow Pages business telephone directory in the UK) - so should be deleted. Rgds, [[User:Hoof Hearted|Hoof Hearted]] 04:10, 27 September 2011 (PDT) | |||
