File:Prisoner population rate world map.svg versus File:Prisoner population rate world map corrected.svg

The original map is fine, is used on many pages, and has a history of regular updates. Maybe update it instead of creating a new map? Have you talked to the editor of the other map about colors? --Timeshifter (talk) 08:27, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The only difference I see is swapping the two colors for the two highest groups. It does not make much sense to have red be greater than violet, as they are reversed in the spectrum. If you want red to be the highest, shades of orange, yellow, and green would need to be used, instead of violet. Delphi234 (talk) 02:13, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
