Appropriate graphic?

[edit]

The small inset is captioned "Cape Gloucester is on the western end of New Britain", but the graphic has neither of those things labelled. This makes it less than ideal for people not already familiar with the geography of the region. Perhaps a different map of the area, which contains labels for the key features, would help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.45.208.237 (talk) 20:49, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

G'day, yes this is a fair comment; however, we are constrained by what is lawfully available (i.e. in the public domain) or what our skills allow us to produce. If you can identify a better map that has an appropriate licence, we can consider using that, but in the meantime, I've adjusted the caption to provide a reference to Arawe, which is labelled. I have also asked the map's creator if they could add Cape Gloucester to the current map. They are quite busy in RL, so may not get time to do this.
