Graphist opinion(s):
- Using the SVG that map file was derived from would be better. I find it a little odd that it's not just a clipped region from the SVG file. gringer (talk) 21:39, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, on further observation, that map won't do. The administrative boundaries aren't detailed enough for the election boundaries. gringer (talk) 12:44, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
- To demonstrate that, I've extracted out the relevant portion of the locator map and coloured regions as close as possible to the boundaries in the external image (using 4-colour colours plus two more taken from the locator conventions). gringer (talk) 13:12, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

EuropeArticleLanguages map
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Red_x.svg/20px-Red_x.svg.png)
I would like to request an edit to the map found under Article (grammar), originally submitted by Nikolik. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_(grammar) It has been fixed a few times already. I wish I knew how to edit it myself, but I don't. Basically the Arabic speaking world is currently the lighter shade of blue in the legend, which indicates definite articles only. A new category in the legend needs to be named "definite and diacritically marked indefinite articles." This information is already present in the Wikipedia article that the map is being used for.
Please contact me if there is any issue. Thanks. Rsg70007 (talk) 06:01, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
graphist opinion: This should be a simple photoshop job if all you need is a PNG. The thing is... I got confused reading the article (ahh! Grammar!) Can you just tell me/us which countries need to be changed to what shade of color? Jon C (talk) 23:46, 2 January 2011 (UTC)
elk and moose maps
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Red_x.svg/20px-Red_x.svg.png)
-
map of elk range currently in use on numerous projects
-
map of moose range
Request: I don't really know anything about the processes used to create such a map, but I do know that I have seen elk as far north as Whitehorse, Yukon, which does not appear to be included on this map. So I guess I am asking for some clarification on what data was used to create this map and suggesting that it may need to be updated. I will do some digging of my own to see if I can find some verification. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:28, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
- Well, the Yukon government is issuing hunting permits as far north as Carmacks, [2] so either I am misreading the map or it is inaccurate, I doubt they are issuing permits to hunt elk that don't exist. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:39, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
- Oh dear, I'm afraid the map of the range of the moose has the opposite problem, moose do not live in the rugged coastal areas of Southeast Alaska, here is the Alaska Department of Fish and Game map of the moose range in Alaska [3] (scroll down). It even shows them living on islands that are well offshore. Moose are ok swimmers, but not so good that they could swim all the way out the Aleutian Islands. Beeblebrox (talk) 03:32, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
- I know the origin of this map (althought I didn't upload it). It comes from IUCN red list http://www.iucnredlist.org/apps/redlist/details/818/0. It's part of a work who digitized almost all mammals species' distributions. However, as expected in any big work, they are highly inaccurate when we see a single species. Unfortunately, as far as my knowlegde goes, this is the most accurate map avaiable free and online, and is even accepted in the academy. Several papers in biogeography and macroecology use these maps to draw global patterns. Concluding, unless someone find a regional map, we won't have other choice. (First comment in wikipedia sorry if something is wrong, or english is bad) 201.51.80.146 (talk) 00:35, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
- I agree these maps are not very good. Neither provides sources. It's not uncommon for Wikipedia/Commons maps to get away with not providing sources, but they should, same as text on Wikipedia. There are many many obviously inaccurate maps on Wikipedia/Commons, and this seems to be another example. I wouldn't trust it. Some kind of reliable source needs to be found for making a good map. The moose map stands out as clearly wrong to me. It seems to claim there are moose in the Oregon High Desert, Vancouver Island, the Olympic Peninsula, etc etc, but not in Yellowstone and the Tetons. I almost walked into a moose in the Tetons! And there definitely aren't any on the Olympic Peninsula. It also shows moose distribution in the Buffalo and Niagara Falls area, which I can assure you is plain wrong. You could bring up these problems on the talk pages of each map, although I've had little luck in getting results that way. You could bring it up on talk pages for articles that use the maps. The best thing would be to find a reliable source with maps showing the proper distribution. (Okay, I just added comments to the talk page on the moose map at The Commons, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Moose_distribution.png -- and a "disputed accuracy" template. Don't hold your breath though--the file has not been edited in a long time. It's possible the author is long gone) Pfly (talk) 12:19, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s): Done The change is made (overwritten). There is, however, a corresponding vector file, and not having looked closely to see if they remain identical, I did not change that. Jon C (talk) 08:22, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

UK postcode map
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Red_x.svg/20px-Red_x.svg.png)
Request: Can someone create an svg map out of this [4]. It's a postcode map of the UK in about 2008. I'm not sure if it's up-to-date. I think it may not be, since it is 120 codes [5], and our article states there are 124 (although the ref appears to be a deadlink). If someone could make an svg from the map I linked to, then we could use it as a template for the surname distribution maps that this website shows [6]. Just do a search for a surname on that site, and see how they show the distribution of names. I'd like to be able to do that in some of our articles. Could someone bang up a map we could use as a template?--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 11:07, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Clean up on external map
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/ba/Red_x.svg/20px-Red_x.svg.png)
Article(s): Zhao Rugua
Request: I have two halves of a map that need to be cleaned up. Unfortunately, they are each too big to be uploaded to a hosting site, so I can't provide a link for other editors to look at. I plan on adding a smaller version of the complete map to the linked article, but I need the larger version cleaned up first. If anyone is interested in looking at the map, you can contact me via my email, which is accessible through Wikipedia. Just go to my talk page and click the button that looks like a mail box. If the interested editor has email set up, I will email you both halves. Basically, a gray haze needs to be removed from the background and the letters and outlines on the countries need to be darkened. Thank you. Ghostexorcist (talk) 13:47, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Article(s): Veracruz and Municipalities of Veracruz and derivated articles for each city/municipality
Request: Hi I would like to have an image like Image D but for the State of Veracruz (ignoring the infobox in Image D). Actually my main concerns are:
- The size of Image A (2.05MB) when i see images like E (432KB) or F (123KB). If you could give me reduced version of this image I can do all the rest.
- Missing municipality on Image A and B: in Image B, the Municipality in darker blue is Playa Vicente (number 21 of Image C) which wrongly includes Santiago Sochiapan (number 22 Image C) within its borders, if it could be added to a reduced version of Image A, there is no need to create an image similar to Image D, i could take care of it.
Thank you very much. (Sorry to be repetitive, but just a reduced file size would make my day and I could start creating derivative maps after having it) EOZyo (мѕğ) 07:28, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s):
- The size is in the details - image A contains polygons for all municipalities, which takes up much more data than just drawing all states of Mexico. Technically, a less precise version of A (i.e. one with less nooks and corners of all municipalities displayed) would suffice, but that's a lot of work. With a regular image, you could use graphical software to smooth the lines, but since every line is actually two edges of neighbouring municipalities, automatic smoothing gives unsatisfactory results... Sorry. Is the big file size a problem, though? Classical geographer (talk) 10:53, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s): That's a lot of work, Slfi. Makes it worth your while to have a go yourself with Inkscape, maybe, if someone here provides you with a map showing France, Spain and NW-Africa? Classical geographer (talk) 10:49, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
Transilien P
Article(s): Transilien Paris – Est, Ligne P du transilien on the french wikipedia and the future article Transilien lijn P on the dutch wikipedia
Request: Could you make a map of line P of the transilien-network? Resources can be found here and here. Aliesperet (talk) 17:25, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
Graphist opinion:
- There is no map at all of any Transilien service. I think that would be a first priority; either a schematic map (as on the official Transilien website here) or one overlaid over a map of Paris - which would have the advantage of showing more clearly that Transilien services reach somewhat further out than the RER network. Aliesperet, what do you say? Classical geographer (talk) 10:45, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
Requester's Answer Than, if possible, an overlaid map which would have the advantage of showing more clearly that Transilien services reach somewhat further out than the RER network. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aliesperet (talk • contribs) 20:13, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Further request: Very sorry to be a hassle, but since this is here it may as well be cleared up.
- Remove Bangladesh from FA and perhaps insert a new symbol and colour for A-class articles (I can't see a list of other A-class articles, if there are any)
- Remove Israel from FA
- Add Malawi, Malaysia, Republic of China (Taiwan), Switzerland, to GA
- Remove Brazil, Lebanon, Egypt, Iran, Afghanistan, Russia, People's Republic of China, from GA.
That should cover everything, at least everything I see. Thanks again, Chipmunkdavis (talk) 02:05, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Historic map of Arabia

Arabia about 1923. Abdul Aziz's domain is in blue with dates of conquest. The Kingdom of the Hejaz, conquered in 1925, is in light green. (The other Hashemite kingdoms of Iraq and Transjordan are also in shades of green)
Article(s): Saudi Arabia,History of Saudi Arabia
Request: The labeling on the map is very small (and can't be read even in History of Saudi Arabia where it's 350px, can they be made bigger to be more readable? The only labels that need to be made bigger are the ones in the main blue area, the green area (labeled Hejaz) on Red sea coast, and the yellow area (labled upper Asir) in the bottom left. There seems to be plenty of space to do it. The other labels in the other areas are not relevant to the articles so can stay small. The other thing is there are dates under the label written in a strange way with year and month running into each other eg "192207". Can they be changed to eg "07/1922" or, preferably, if there is enough room "July 1922" DeCausa (talk) 09:15, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Battle of Wagram map(s)
-
Helpful map of one of the stages of the battle.
-
This is a very detailed map of operations during the 2-day battle. It is overloaded with info, and would need to be broken down, according to the stages of the battle.
-
a basic map that could be used in making the requested map. It shows the basic geography of the battlefield.
Article(s): Battle of Wagram (Major expansion of the article to come).
Request: Create a few well-illustrated and catchy maps of the battle. Ideally, 4 maps would be needed (see below). Alexandru Demian (talk) 16:38, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
Hello, I am currently preparing a major expansion of the article about the battle of Wagram. I need a few well-illustrated and complete maps, such as the one you have made for the battle of Gebora. Ideally, four maps would be needed:
- 1. one map showing operations on 5 July: the French crossing of the Danube
- 2. one map showing operations on 5 July: the evening attacks.
- 3. one map showing the early operations on 6 July
- 4. one map showing the French attacks and Austrian retreat late on 6 July.
Some good maps are available here. There are also some very reliable and well illustrated maps of the battle in Ian Castle's "Aspern & Wagram 1809: Mighty Clash Of Empires".--Alexandru Demian (talk) 16:38, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Article(s): Bicycle helmet laws, Bicycle helmet
Request: I am mentoring a student working in the Public Policy project who is working on an article on bike helmet laws. She would like a map of the US showing what states have what laws -- see here for a copyrighted map of the kind we are looking for. The following states should be shown as having statewide laws: AL, CA, CT, DE, FL, GA, HI, LA, MA, MD, ME, MS, NC, NH, NJ, NM, NY, OR, PA, RI, TN, WV; and the following states have local laws but no statewide laws: AK, AZ, IL, KS, KY, MI, MO, MT, NV, OH, OK, TX, VA, WA, WI. All the other states have no laws. Source is here. Thanks for any help. Mike Christie (talk – library) 18:58, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

- An English version already exists. I was 50% done before I realized this. Oh well. Makeemlighter (talk) 10:27, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'm terribly sorry about that. I found the Russian map in the article and simply assumed there was no English version. I should of course have searched better. Lesson learned. Thanks for the help anyway. P. S. Burton (talk) 22:19, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
