1920 Irish local elections

Great work to date adding details of the 1920 local election. A real trove! Looking forward to seeing what more of these you uncover. —Iveagh Gardens (talk) 10:44, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks! Nice to see someone else finds it as interesting as I do! Sadly the associated ward election maps are taking a little while longer than anticipated (only done County Antrim and Dublin so far) due to a computer crash :(. MrPenguin21 (talk) 15:27, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

Libya Wikiproject revamp

Hello, I am very knowledge able about the Middle East and MENA and its conflicts. I was very surprised to see that Wikiproject:Libya was not entirely as interactive and attractive as Wikiproject:Syria or Wikiproject:Israel and others for that matter. Please send me a message on your take or ideas on the matter, and if you want to join in. Max Pigeon (talk) 13:11, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi MaxPigeon! Sorry for the massive delay - I had been taking a break for a bit! (I had a computer crash early in 2019 where I lost quite a bit of stuff, and took a bit of a break after that). Anyways let me know if you're still looking for help. Thanks MrPenguin21 (talk) 22:27, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of 1997 United Kingdom general election in Edinburgh

The article 1997 United Kingdom general election in Edinburgh has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Results are already included in individual constituencies. No need for this article.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. SɱαɾƚყPαɳƚʂ22 (Ⓣⓐⓛⓚ) 15:19, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Thanks SmartyPants. I think deletion makes sense - while there may be a need of Wiki users/readers to understand certain geographic features of elections, I don't think there's any particular value added through maintaining micro-pages like these. MrPenguin21 (talk) 17:32, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

City of London 2017 elections - map...

Hello there - I saw you had created a (very good) map of the 2017 City of London election results. I did spot one small error, however: uncontested wards are shaded in dark grey, but Bread Street *was* contested, with four candidates for two seats, so I think it should have been shaded in light grey and not dark.

A small point, but I hope you don't mind my pointing it out!

If you need any further information, please let me know.

Thanks for a great map!

Best wishes, ^talkGiler 23:24, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi! I took the liberty of fixing the auto-archiving settings at the top of this page. I've moved Talk:MrPenguin20/Archive 1 to User talk:MrPenguin21/Archive 1, and configured the bot to continue archiving there. I've also moved the configuration and the {{Talk header}} box to the top, below the first section. --rchard2scout (talk) 12:27, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Ismat Abdel-Rahman.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Ismat Abdel-Rahman.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:20, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Creating pages of Sudanese Army & Sudanese Navy

Hello,

Sudanese Army and Sudanese Navy - two service branches of the Sudanese Armed Forces have no Wikipedia pages. Service branches of other country’s armed forces have separate pages about them, except Sudan.

I noticed in Wikipedia:WikiProject Sudan that you're interested in conflict and political topic. That's why, I'm requesting you to create pages about the two service branches. As a civil war is happening in Sudan right now, I think the forces deserve separate wikipedia pages. I've added their names in 'Article Requests' at Wikipedia:WikiProject Sudan.

Map query

Hello. I was a bit confused by this map you added. Are the colourings vote strength of overseas voters in the respective countries, or are they simply neighbouring British colonies/dominions rendered in similar colours? Cheers, Number 57 23:43, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

Hey Number57. I fair that's a fair point, and I totally agree the colouring is a bit confusing. I've redone the colours and relabeled - it was really intended to give a sense of the wider surrounding geopolitical context at the time. MrPenguin21 (talk) 18:01, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

British overseas territories at the same geographic scale as the UK

Dear Wikipedian,

I was studying British Overseas Territories (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Overseas_Territories) and, in particular, the graphic "British overseas territories at the same geographic scale as the UK" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Overseas_Territories#/media/File:British_Overseas_Territories_(at_the_same_geographic_scale).svg). I'm very grateful that you should have contributed such a graphic as I was very interested to understand the size of these territories with respect to familiar sizes of UK geographic features.

The intent of the graphic appeared to be to permit easy visual comparison of equivalent geographic areas. That is the reason why I'm making contact. I have a concern that the graphic has significant shortfalls in its accurate presentation of equivalent geographic area.

To illustrate one example; the Isle of Wight off the South coast of the UK has an East-West size of approximately 36.5km. The island of Saint Helena has East-West size of approximately 16.7km. In crude terms, the East-West size of roughly half that of the Isle of Wight. However, on the graphic it appears substantially smaller (by a factor of at least 3 studying the vector graphic).

As a quick check , I have used the site thetruesize.com and, while the vectored boundaries of the shifted country are a little crude, it confirms the basic expectation detailed above. The following link would appear to recreate the comparison I'm studying: https://www.thetruesize.com/#?borders=1~!NzQyNzE2Mw.NzM1NjEwNw*MTc0ODQ1OTI(MTczNTM5MjM~!GB*NzQyOTkyMw.NDA2NTky)NA.

A quick review of the Falkland Islands suggests they may be represented as too large. One plausible explanation may be the the territorial outlines have been taken from a Mercator (or similar) projection of the globe and placed adjacent to one another without compensation for the distortion introduced by the Mercator projection at different latitude (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_projection). This would create the result observed that territories with lower latitude than the UK appear small and higher latitude than the UK appear large. Note the thetruesize.com website appears designed specifically to adjust for this projection discrepancy.

Do you agree the graphic might ideally be refined to better represent the information it seeks to convey? I'm very happy to participate in producing an improved version. I note that another Wikipedian appears to have refined your original version but I don't anticipate a problem in producing the super-set of the graphic's information.

Sincerely, James Metamorbius (talk) 12:26, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

City of London Corporation 2022 Election map...

Hello - you did a brilliant map for the 2017 City of London election (here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_of_Common_Council#/media/File:City_of_London_Corporation_election,_2017.svg)

I've now updated the list to show the results of the 2022 elections (and subsequent by-elections). Do you think you might be able to update the map to match?

Thank you so much for your brilliant work!
