Request: This crayon-made version is an embarrassment. Can someone make a better one, please? DS (talk) 23:41, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): We'd need a source for the area code boundaries other than the crayon map to base a new one on. I did a very quick look and didn't see one. Kmusser (talk) 13:39, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. If we don't have a source for the area code boundaries, should the image be deleted? DS (talk) 22:34, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to, I see it's already been removed from the article. Kmusser (talk) 00:33, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Two maps for Myrrha[edit]

Stale

– DyceBot (talk) 07:02, 6 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A plausible route for the spreading of the myth of Myrrha from Ugarit to Greece.
Myrrha's flight route from her father.

Article(s): Myrrha

Request: I would really like these two maps to be in the same "design" (an SVG map could be cool, but I don't know if that's possible for this sort of map). If you could make two maps that show the routes plus borders of the countries in the early Ancient Greek world it would really be great. Please note that the location of the island Panchaea is up to you - it's a fictional island - but it is likely that those who told the myth of Myrrha imagined it to be around the place where I've put it.

French Departments[edit]

Stale

– DyceBot (talk) 07:01, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

General question - would it be possible to produce maps of all the French Departments for use in articles relating to France, in a similar way to those of the British counties. Compare the infobox in Lympne Airport to that of Saint-Inglevert Airfield and you will see why this would be desirable. Maybe Pas-de-Calais could be created first as an exercise to see whether this would be possible. Mjroots (talk) 07:11, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like they are already in progress by the French wikipedia, see Location maps of France, if you want a specific one you may try asking at the French version of this page. Kmusser (talk) 14:18, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My French isn't that good! I tried replacing the pushpin map France with Pas-de-Calais but that only produced an error on preview. Mjroots (talk) 10:21, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No one has made a Pas-de-Calais location template yet, and ideally the Pas-de-Calais location map still needs to be SVGified, it looks like they are working on them on the French wikipedia, but not all the departments are done yet. I don't understand the template syntax well enough to write one, but here is one for a different Department. Kmusser (talk) 01:15, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Byzantine-Bulgarian wars 893-927[edit]

Stale

– DyceBot (talk) 07:01, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Base map

Article(s): Byzantine-Bulgarian Wars, Battle of Boulgarophygon, Battle of Achelous (917), Simeon I of Bulgaria, Treaty of 927 (when created)

Request: I have created a very rough and ugly map of how I approximately imagine it. The sources are two maps of Atlas of History [1] and [2] (the second is not very clear). The hachures to the west notify the Principality of Serbia which was annexed between 924 and 931; those to the south mark the territorial extension at Byzantine expense in 904 therefore the first black line is the border when Simeon I became ruler in 893; the second one - in 904. The dotted line marks the temporary military border between 913 and 927; while the red line is the border as it was agreed by the peace treaty in 927 and which stayed unchanged until 971.

I am not sure I have cropped the very best base map; you can use another one if it would be better. In my ugly map, I have put the main cities which should be placed in the map. I think that such a map will be useful to illustrate the border changes of that important episode of the Byzantine-Bulgarian war. Regards, Gligan (talk) 16:51, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Request: I didn't notice this at the time these files were made (refer to this previous GL request), but the county borders are way off from what they are supposed to be. Compare for example the Kansas and Oklahoma county borders (especially Osage County, Oklahoma and Wabaunsee County, Kansas. The borders seem to be generalized, making the counties misshapen. If possible, could someone please remake these maps with better county borders?

Blank SVG Robinson Projection Map with Second-Level Subdivisions[edit]

Stale

Resolved

– Ninjatacoshell (talk) 02:25, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

1. The base image
2. A map with the right projection (Robinson), but wrong format (.png) and lacking subdivisions for many countries
3. A map with the wrong projection (Lambert cylindrical), and too large for most computers to open, but right format (.svg) and has all the necessary subdivisions.
4. A map with the wrong projection (Lambert cylindrical), wrong format (.png), is missing Alaska and the Pacific, and has subdivisions beyond the second level. This is the map currently used in the articles in question.

Article(s): Political division, Administrative division

Request: Blank maps with second-level divisions are useful beyond the two articles in question, but the Lambert cylindrical projection creates an unpleasant shape distortion at the poles (e.g. the third and fourth images). The Robinson projection is superior in this aspect (e.g. the first and second images). If it becomes desirable to create maps with third-level, fourth-level, etc. divisions (as in the fourth image), I feel that they should be created and maintained separately, so that all are available, rather than just the most extensive level of subdivisions. Subdivisions of a country should be grouped so that an entire country can be easily filled. If individual subdivisions need to be filled, then the user can ungroup them. The same goes for smaller subdivisions. There should be some way to visually distinguish second-level subdivisions from first-level subdivisions (unlike the third image). I prefer that subdivisions have thinner outlines than the country they pertain to (e.g. the second image) rather than giving them different outline colors (e.g. the fourth image), but the community may disagree with me on this point. Note that there is a python script available for manipulating the first image that may be useful for this project. Just to be clear, I want the new map to be based on the first image; the other three are only provided for reference and/or comparison. Ninjatacoshell (talk) 16:10, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If somebody can fix this, please just overwrite the current file with your version.

Request taken by magnoliasouth. I can give it a go. The problem is the size of the graphic or legend. For a map of North America to include divisions of US states, it is absolutely too small and would be confusing no matter what colors you use. I'll try and if it doesn't work, I'll remove the taken tag. MagnoliaSouth ^(talk) 15:43, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Done I've uploaded the file here. I tried editing the page itself and while I can edit it, I cannot edit the picture box for some reason. It says it's locked but I'm an established user, or so I thought. Really, I did think I was able to do so. Someone else will have to change the image.

Label Errors in Caribbean Map[edit]

Resolved

Map of the Caribbean with various label problems
New map

Articles: Caribbean, Caribbean Sea, Antilles, Battle of the Caribbean, Central banks and currencies of the Caribbean, List of islands in the Caribbean, many others

Request: If you look closely at this map, you will see that many of the place labels have been partially or completely cut off. The problem is most pronounced with Haiti---the country is labeled "ITI", Cap-Haitien has lost its first word, and the label for Port-au-Prince is missing completely. Havana, Cuba has also lost its label, and there are probably other errors I haven't noticed. Apparently any text overlapping the sea was cut off when the image was created. These errors need to be fixed. 69.140.242.23 (talk) 22:23, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Caracas, Venezuela is also missing its label. It may not matter that some capital cities are unlabeled, since this map seems to be intended mainly to show the countries and islands of the Caribbean, but the labels that are only half missing are actually conveying false information. 69.140.242.23 (talk) 22:30, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by Kmusser., I'll do a new one rather than try to fix that one, it may take me awhile. In the meantime I'd recommend using the original that one was made from, File:Central america (cia).png, instead.
