Image showing members of the Union for the Mediterranean, with EU countries in blue and non-EU in dark green

Article(s): Union for the Mediterranean

Request: Change the colour of Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Israel, Monaco, Montenegro and Turkey to a third colour (maybe yellow or red?), so blue can be for EU countries and dark green for Arab League states. Right now, the dark green makes Albania, Croatia etc look like they are Arabic countries. Libya, in stripes, should stay as it is. Thanks, YeshuaDavid • Talk • 14:14, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): So if I see this correctly, the map currently has two colour categories (member states that are EU members, and member states that aren't) plus a shade for observers (only Libya, which is not a member of the EU, and therefore green). There is a different categorization; the Arab League. Many of the non-EU members in the Mediterranean Union are members of the Arab League. Yet although the article at Union_for_the_Mediterranean#Members gives Arab League flags for some countries in the same position as the EU flags, the Arab League does not seem to be involved in the Mediterranean Union, at least not in the way the EU (financially) is. Is that correct? Moreover, it only makes sense to use different (non-shaded) colours if memberships are exclusive; couldn't a country be in theory both a member of the EU and of the Arab League? In short, I think changing the legend to reflect the division EU/non-EU members more clearly makes more sense than adjusting the map - even though doing so would be quite easy. Classical geographer (talk) 20:06, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As it stands, there is an ongoing proposal to admit all Arab League states, even ones that don't border the Mediterranean, in the same way all EU states are included regardless of geography. As it stands though, the Arab states don't have any particular right to membership, and I'm not sure if the Arab League have any involvement in the running ofthe UfM. With regard to being a member of both, that would almost certainly be impossible, given the various agreements and treaties that Arab and EU states commit to, such as the Schengen Agreement. If you think the map should list all non-EU countries together, the map should be changed so the colour used isn't dark green, which is obviously derived from the Flag of the League of Arab States.

change map perspective

This might be a better projection (and a smaller file size, no Antarctica but no scout units there either). Admittedly not Pacific Ocean centered but you want, I guess, Asia and Europe and as much of Greenland as possible dropped.

Graphist opinion:

Thanks, but it needs to be Pacific-centric. It doesn't have to be the whole world, the second map can be trimmed down to the same geographic range as the first. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 05:06, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I should point out that the second map is over 11MB in size which strikes me as a bit on the big side (strikes my inkscape as being a beast also). (The third map is a bit under 1.5MB which is still biggish). Is there a particular reason for the pacific centering so I know what else to consider when looking at options? --Erp (talk) 07:23, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The sizing can be changed by you to anything you like, you can scale to fit, I just need that map's continental shapes and Pacificentricity (hey, I just made a new word!) :) . The reason for it covering the Pacific is that US territories and aligned nations fall under both the GSUSA and the BSA. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 07:36, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How does this look? I haven't colored everything (and the actual color can be changed easily) but I wanted to see if the "Pacificentricity" and projection was correct (or is it too close to the original map). --Erp (talk) 20:33, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The "Pacificentrification" (Pacificentritude? Pacifinaceousness? Pacifinocity? LOL) is perfect, but the reason the perspective is important is the second map is closest to both logos for the Western Hemisphere Region (World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts) and the Interamerican Scout Region (World Organization of the Scout Movement), as well as its Asian counterparts. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 15:29, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I've done a bitmap trace of the file at http://english.freemap.jp/world_e/8.html However I am not at all sure of the copyright status of the original (and I don't read Japanese). If this looks ok to you (barring colors), you should probably check the copyright status. Assuming that is ok, I can then work on the rest. I will note this is now under 1MB in size. --Erp (talk) 21:23, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Emma, I appreciate your hard work on this, but I think you're working too hard. You can seriously both trim down and rescale the second map to a size you like, and it's already on Wikipedia. But outline maps can't be copyrighted, nobody owns the shapes of continents. Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 17:20, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

11MB is huge for what will be a simple map with not much detail and we should be avoiding large files in wikipedia without cause. I ran it through a program (scour) to try to bring it down in size and it was still several MB (and Inkscape on my machine still choked on it). Clipping won't cut much because it is a SVG file not a bitmap file. Admittedly I've not worked much with SVG files but that is my understanding. Now there may be tricks I'm unaware of. --Erp (talk) 01:00, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to the coloring I duplicated individual county images, cropped and recolored borders, then overlaid to get coastal counties to have different boundaries. An export from within Illustrator to PNG appears normal, but something needs tweaking in the SVG. I was hoping someone could let me know what I need to adjust to return the fonts to normal, and any other issues I need to address.

Graphist opinion(s):

MediaWiki does have a few problems rendering text in SVGs but I think in this case it's more likely to be the choice of fonts that's the problem. You seem to be using MyriadPro-Cond for the text in the map, which is a rather unusual font that Wikipedia (and most users) don't have. I would suggest using Arial Narrow (to keep the same look) or failing that one of the Bitstream Vera fonts. One other small thing: Nevada county seems to be missing the border on its right-hand edge (on the right-hand side of California just above the corner). Time3000 (talk) 09:31, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sources: 620, 270, overall extent & influence. The map on the 270s should include Mesopotamia as fully Sassanid. The map for 620 should include the territories east of the 5th-6th century Byzantine border as fully Persian, and Syria, Palestine, Egypt and eastern Anatolia shaded (under occupation), as in the example given above.

On the same map with different colour or on completely different map, the countries which governmental institutions are required to use ODF could be marked.

I have now drawn it along the river Bradano, as indicated as a historic border in the Lucania article. Classical geographer (talk) 10:50, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nord Stream pipeline

Resolved

Article(s): Nord Stream

Request: The current map doesn't show the territorial borders and the EEZ borders. It is also inaccurate and lacks detail. E.g. it now looks as if the pipeline would run over Öland, which it won't. Could someone please create a new map based upon this excellent (but unfortunately copyrighted map) [1]. Thanks in advance. The Illusional Ministry (talk) 20:33, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Nord Stream article now uses this map,
which is a derivative of this map.

Graphist opinion(s):

Note that the image above is missing source details thus be careful about derivatives. /Lokal _Profil

I found a better source map here The Exptirpation and Current Status of the Wild Chinchillas Chinchilla langigera and C. brevicaudata. I can fix a new svg map from that source this weekend. The Illusional Ministry (talk) 22:51, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have now made svg maps, but for some resons a black block appears in the western part o Brazil. Maybe someone with more svg skills could fix that? The Illusional Ministry (talk) 18:40, 21 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I was able to get it, for things like that it's often easy to find them using a text editor than in Inkscape. Kmusser (talk) 14:52, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Poesten Kill (creek)

Resolved

Article(s): Poesten Kill (yes, redlink), currently at User:UpstateNYer/Poesten Kill

Request: I've begun an article on a local creek and would like to see a map of its course added in the article. The creek is fully contained within Rensselaer County, starting at Dyken Pond (42°43′2.77″N 73°25′40.58″W / 42.7174361°N 73.4279389°W / 42.7174361; -73.4279389) and ending at the Hudson River in Troy, New York (42°43′14.6″N 73°41′54.02″W / 42.720722°N 73.6983389°W / 42.720722; -73.6983389). I've noticed that the creek is well mapped by the USGS on their topo maps (if the link works, it's here). The topo maps also clearly depict the Poesten Kill's main tributaries: Bonesteel Creek, the Quaken Kill, and Sweet Milk Creek. Is it possible to add these waterways (and Dyken Pond) to the base map of File:RensselaerCounty Brunswick.svg (removing the red)? upstate NYer 23:34, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
