Old state map or new county map[edit]
The pushpin in the state maps were the rage years ago because it was automated. They have been replaced by the county or the township maps that are more information dense. See any other article of a town in NJ to confirm. Whenever I see a state map I know the article has not been touched in years. If you want to go back to the state map with a pushpin, the best place is go to the map template talk page and get consensus to revert to the old style. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 23:43, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
- The infobox has a place for pushpin maps. Please show me where community consensus was reached about not using the perfectly acceptable pushpin maps. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 04:14, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
- Indeed it does, have a place for pushpin maps. The map that is on the page IS a pushpin map. As part of an effort to make the maps more meaningful readers, a series of 21 pushpin maps were created by User:Omnedon for each of the 21 counties in the state for use in those places that are not shown on the many county maps.

- I appreciate that editor's hard work, but personally feel the pushpin map is better because it shows the location within the state. In the absence of any consensus to forgo the use of pushpin maps (which every infobox is designed to use), I'll add that map back to this article. Thank you.

- I appreciate that you want to do whatever you want to do, but there have been two editors who have removed the state level push pin map as unnecessary and wasteful duplication of the information in the county pushpin map. The county level map IS A PUSH PIN MAP and they have not only been used with success around the state of New Jersey, but represent the consensus of the editors at this specific article. You are welcome to try to overturn that consensus, but it's your job to do so. Make your case, and then change the article after consensus has been reached; not before.
