  • Support I just nominated a map below so it would be ironic of me not to support this.--Theparties (talk) 01:13, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support The map itself actually has an article, so the EV is there. Scan is great. Mattximus (talk) 21:15, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There are some red Korean stamps/labels, currently there's no translation of them. Brandmeistertalk 13:18, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll see if we can get someone to translate the stamps into the image description. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:25, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
