@4sqSupport: We love this new Chrome extension created by Superusers, for Superusers. Edit venues with fewer clicks!
Oh, and naveen's del.icio.us :)
Features:
- After submitting a merge you have the option to leave a comment for the Superuser reviewing your merge request in the merge queue.
- Google Maps API integration on Edit Venue page and address/merge queues. No longer do you need to lookup empty or incorrect addresses manually! Click the all new Cleanup button and see the magic happening.
- Change category to a custom category with one-click from the Search, History and Edit Venue pages.
- when searching have hovering links to Manage, Edit, Close and Flag Venue next to the venue links, option to sort results by relevance (default), distance, name and check-ins (and it remembers when you've searched for in the upper-right search box).
- when searching displays merged venues in the search results yellow, and deletes in grey so you can remember which one you've already done.
- when reviewing your history also hovering links to Manage, Edit, Close and Flag Venue.
- on the venue page have an extended SU Tools menu, with links to Manage, Edit and Close Venue, as well as Search links to Google Maps and Foursquare itself using the venue name, location and city or coordinates.
- on the Edit Venue page the link to search Google Maps (or Foursquare) is displayed inline so you don't have to click back and forth between tabs, also the link is extended so it uses location, city and country for searching (uses lat/long if address not available), cancel or revert values button.
- Manage Venue page remembers closing, deleting or merging a venue.
- Admin page contains a history of all closes, deletes and merges with option to check them automatically (if the delete or merge has been processed) and clear all without checking.
- on editing a venue and 4sq prompts you with double venues, links are provided next to each venue to submit the edit and merge automatically with the prompted venue. Click "Only merge" to submit remaining venues for merge or do only the merge and not confirm the edit you were just doing.
Extra features:
- Adds "Admin" link in the main menu linking to the /admin section for SU remembering if you're in local/country/world mode.
- Adds a clickable twitter and website link to the Edit Venue page (also in queues).
- Removes " HQ" at the end of the venue name when searching in Google Maps.
- If you click the website link on the venue page it opens in a new window/tab.
- Makes state and zip fields larger in Merge/Address queues.
- Makes the Mayorships list bigger on any user profile.
- Added extended "Requested by:" section on merge queue.

- Superusers in the merge queue can see your SU level in the Requested by: section next to your merge request. This applies only to SU Tools users requesting merges.
- If a Superuser Skips a merge request it shows Skipped! in the Merge Queue Submissions, but you can't see who skipped it. This is FYI so you know the merge request has been "touched".
- Merges without comments stay anonymous, merges with comments and denied merge requests are known to the requester with the comment, date and link to the Superuser profile.
- Comments are not ment for chatting, we have twitter for that. So there's only room for one comment per merge request, and one comment per approval/denial.
