I believe that because it is a template the request is impossible. - Presidentman (talk · contribs) (Talkback) Random Picture of the Day 21:56, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It could be done, one would just need to edit the template to reposition the horizontal alignment of all the locations to match the new map. Monty ₈₄₅ 04:22, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article(s): Pakistan

Request: Please make a better image shows the locations of Pakistan to avoid confusion of places of Pakistan and India, exactly an orthographic projection
It should differentiate the following areas of Pakistan
1. Undisputed (without Northern Areas and parts of Azad Kashmir in dispute Kashmir territory)
2. Area controlled by Pakistan i.e. Occupied Kashmir/ Pakistan Administrated Kashmir (Dispute place between Pakistan and India)
3. And if necessary, Territories claimed by Pakistan (excluding Pakistan Administrated Kashmir)i.e. Kashmir
In different colors, preferably (as i believe :) ) dark green, medium green, and light green. ... Boshi33 (talk) 08:47, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

Isn't this a bit overkill for an orthographic projection? It is my understanding that these sorts of maps are used in their articles merely to give the reader a general idea of where on the globe a particular country/area is located; I don't think this sort of level of detail is appropriate for that purpose. In addition, there's a perfectly good map later in the article (File:PAK_AU_T1.svg) which clearly delineates all the various degrees of disputed territories in the region. The current orthographic projection strikes a balance in showing where in the world land under the jurisdiction of Pakistan is located (dark green), while acknowledging the disputed territories (light green). -MissMJ (talk) 04:55, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Request: I need a map showing the Northern area of the Mexican state of Oaxaca and a bit of the surrounding states of Puebla and Veracruz (Pretty much this area [1][2]), marking the towns in which Mazatec is spoken - the map would ideally include main roads and landscape features such as mountaints, lowlands and the large lake/reservoir where Mazatec is spoken on the island of Soyaltepec.

South Sudan

Resolved

Huge number of maps! With the independence of South Sudan, we need a lot of maps made and/or altered. World maps, African maps, Middle East maps, Arab League maps, maps for the new country itself, even maps of neighboring countries which may show borders (like Ethiopia and Chad).

Article(s): lots and many Request: A good source needs to be found for the official dividing line between Sudan and South Sudan (not to mention the Abyei Province issue). WikiProject South Sudan might be able to help. Good luck, all. Rmhermen (talk) 15:31, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree this is an issue of vital importance. Maps for Arab League, Arab world, Middle East, Greater Middle East, North Africa, East Africa, Africa, United Nations, Commonwealth of Nations, and every country or territory map that shows Sudan/South Sudan on the orthographic projection of the globe needs to be updated.

Abyei doesnt need to change since thats pov. at the moment its still sudan. every map doesnt need to delineate Abyei. the one the referfendum pageis fine. Lihaas (talk) 17:40, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I made some podunk pictures on paint that stink pretty bad. I did not even know about this, and I desire for some better maps to be made of this campaign, and it would be nice if you guys could make it. All the pictures are already cited, in addition to the fact that here is a picture of the campaign that I want a picture off. However, I want it divided up in several pictures like it is on the map in the article I made. Please let me know if this is possibleSteveMooreSmith3 (talk) 08:32, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It would be relatively easy to make some higher quality maps based on the existing uploads; are these accurate? Derfel73 (talk) 12:11, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm working the other maps now; they should be all done in a few days. Could you clarify one or two things though:

To what do the stripy yellow areas refer?
And the green areas? (I did read the article in question, though if these questions were answered, I didn't spot the answers)
Do the various black dots refer to villages (apart from those labelled otherwise, like "camp")?

Derfel73 (talk) 16:11, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The green stuff is swamp. The Yellow stuff is desert. The black dots are camps and villages. Although just because they arent named doesn't mean they are camps. I believe all the camps are named

Graphist opinion(s):

Request taken by Derfel73.. I have done the first file in the same manner as the previous graphic lab artist; if it would be more satisfactory to simply use the unedited vector file like the gif image, do say. A legend could be easily inserted in the thumbnail box containing the image or, if requested, could be added to the image itself. Derfel73 (talk) 20:56, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the style you've just done it in works the best, to be honest, both for consistency with the other ones and that it seems to look good. A legend would be much appreciated, and would probably be best worked via the thumbnail box so that it can be applied in multiple languages if necessary and for simplicity in applying it.

Everything I make ends up looking terrible and very unlike existing highway maps. Please make one the same style as File:I-235 (KS) map.svg (including being county level with city limits...the only difference necessary is that the K-104 map should show state highways, as well) for K-104 (Kansas highway).

Done I don't have town borders on here; it's not in a big city and it's so short that I'm not really sure having municipal borders is necessary, or even worth it. But it's your call; here's the best I can do. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 18:53, 20 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While I'd still like a map the style I requested, this is an excellent map to have because it serves to zoom in and show the route in greater detail than a countywide map will do. It will work great in conjunction with a countywide map, which I think I will request from WP:USRD/MTF/R when the article passes its GAN it's currently up for.
