Request: Image looks like its over exposed, light lines, small and not really usefull as it is. If you guys think it can't be saved, please tag image to be deleted due to lack of educational value. Thanks folks! Hedwig in Washington (MAIL?) 01:23, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): I made the image clearer by making the stroke width 2px. I don't care this image deleted by consensus. Phoenix7777 (talk) 12:23, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(Edit conflict) I extracted the artwork from the PDF container and increased the stroke values. Then converted to SVG. Unfortunately due to the way the original artwork was created it introduced a lot of inefficient path structures and accordingly increased the filesize exponentially. As PDF files can compress lineart and SVG can't the filesize increased from 23kb to 178kb. But at least it's viewable now (not that you'd believe it from the thumbnail!!. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 12:28, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Can someone make a new version of this map that will have highlighted Arkansas, Maryland, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas as US states in which atheists have reduced rights under law-- Bojan  Talk  09:16, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

According to w:Discrimination against atheists their state constitutions prohibit atheists from holding office, atheists don't actually have reduced rights though as they've been overturned by the Supreme Court (explicitly for Maryland, implied for the others). Kmusser (talk) 04:09, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm aware of that, but I thought Bojan might have something else in mind, something that actually materially affected atheists' rights in those states. If not, then I would recommend this request be rejected as contrary to our educational mission. Powers (talk) 20:30, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Like this ? I know little about the states of the USA, so you'll have to check it. Without text it can be added onto other language wiki's I can't recall offhand how you do little text dots of different colours for a written legend, but the help desk can tell you pretty fast. I can add text to a duplicate image though. Penyulap ☏ 21:06, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Map of Countries that do not recognize Christmas as Public Holiday[edit]

Request: In response to an edit request at en.wp., I wonder if this map could be updated to remove the brown shading from Nepal, where Christmas is now apparently a public holiday. Thanks. Rivertorch (talk) 05:44, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Request: to correct inaccuracies in map (needs someone with svg editing ability):

  • Does not breed in Ireland: please change Ireland from yellow to white
  • Does not breed in NW Washington and SW British Columbia: please extend white up western coastal N America to Queen Charlotte Islands
  • Does not winter in inland northern Italy and Switzerland: please remove orange blob there
  • Does winter on British coasts: please add orange line round British coast
  • Does winter on northern Adriatic Sea coasts: please add orange line to coast from Po Valley (NE Italy) to entire Croatian coast
  • (Optional) Traditional formatting of maps puts the legend with breeding at top, wintering below: invert text and colour blobs on Legend

Text Erasing Without Damaging The Transparent Background[edit]

Request: I want the "Greater Accra" part and the line that shows the name to be deleted without harming the transparent background. And this is a little urgent, please. --Berkaysnklf (talk) 14:43, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

  • What is the source of this image? It says "own work" but you must have gotten the borders from somewhere. Powers (talk) 17:33, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • I directly uploaded it, I will want image to be deleted after it is corrected and upload the one showing the election results, with the source. But here. --Berkaysnklf (talk) 16:37, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • Hmm, have you read our licensing policy? The file File:Clickable_Regions_of_Ghana.svg is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike license, which means that any works based on it (like your blank map) have to be licensed the same way, and the original author has to be credited. You claim "own work", instead of crediting User:Thfc, which makes it a copyright violation. I suggest updating the image description page, lest it be deleted. Furthermore, the original file is an SVG, a vector image format. Is there a reason your map is a PNG? It would be much easier to just modify the SVG, and it will produce better results. Powers (talk) 21:36, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
        • I've gone ahead and created a blank SVG map based on the file you mentioned. If you need a PNG for some reason, you can generate one using the links underneath the image on the image description page. Powers (talk) 21:45, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
          • I know the policies, I thought it will take about an hour so I uploaded it and wrote "Going to be improved." in description. But it took 2 days. Now I will choose the .PNG one and change its description by giving the needed attributions and will upload it same way after I finish the election map. Thanks a lot ! --Berkaysnklf (talk) 16:11, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Map of Countries that do not recognize Christmas as Public Holiday[edit]

Can the state of Laos (the inland country between Thailand and Vietnam) please be shaded brown since it does NOT recognise Christmas as a holiday? It is shaded grey in the map here which is wrong.

  •  Comment: Thank you for your help Phoenix777.
  • I have one final request. Can this map be slightly updated with the political boundaries of a new country? It is missing the new nation of South Sudan which was created in 2011 from Sudan in North Africa. The colour remains the same--grey as this list indicates as black South Sudan celebrates Christmas as a holiday--as does Arab North Sudan. If you can, that would be great. If not, then thank you for all your help. Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 01:15, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Updating a map[edit]

It seems like the English map is more up to date than the Spanish one. Please update the Spanish map to match the US map.

Also, please make the following changes on the Spanish map:

  • Minneapolis -> Mineápolis
  • St. Louis -> San Luis
  • Los Angeles -> Los Ángeles

Thanks!! Ezarateesteban 21:49, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OK Ezarate I didn't understand the two first lines as there was no translations.
  • Is this Spanish?
Now you can look at the two versions as I think we should upload both versions as it's now made in svg.
Give me feedback, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 10:31, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The first line haven't translation in English, could you please translate Far West = Lejano Oeste, thanks!!! Ezarateesteban 11:05, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

w:Greater Sacramento Area[edit]

  • California economic regions map
    California economic regions map
  • Blank map of Nevada
    Blank map of Nevada
  • A guide?
    A guide?

Request: I'm trying to make an image for w:Sacramento metropolitan area. The area in yellow on the California map has nearly every county but there's one in Nevada as well; w:Douglas County, Nevada. In the cluster of smaller counties on the middle left of Nevada, it is the bottom left one (hopefully that makes sense) and it should be labeled "Douglas" in the same font that's used on the California map. I think leaving the Sacramento Area yellow/golden would be fine, but if we could make the rest of the counties' labels go away and then cut out anything above Butte, below San Joaquin, and anything to the right (east) of a couple counties from Douglas that would be amazing (to limit scope to this area but give a small amount of context). If you have a better idea to try to do this that would look better, I'm open to suggestions. I tried doing this on Inkscape today but was very unsuccessful. :( --Killiondude (talk) 01:25, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

How about the above PNG as a guide? I'd do it myself but I don't have any spare time at the minute. --Fred the Oyster (talk) 11:09, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
As a guide for where Douglas County is, that's a good idea! Thanks for at least reading my request. :) Hopefully someone with enough time and graphic talent can piece this together. :) Killiondude (talk) 03:15, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): @Killiondude: Do you still want this map? If so contact me and I will do it, but probably will need your help along the way, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 07:49, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
