Lands of Overmaas

Request

The 3 constituent parts of the Lands of Overmaas have locator maps (see above). Could a single locator map be created for the combined Lands of Overmaas be created please? DeCausa (talk) 01:04, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Discussion

DeCausa this should be possible, are you looking for the entire area to have the same colour (red?), or to reflect say the blue green red currently in the article? CMD (talk) 05:57, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks. Well, ideally having the three colours would be great but I assumed that it would be too small to do that with any clarity, in which case just red would be fine. DeCausa (talk) 07:43, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Unfortunately you're right, it's difficult to get clarity. I went with three different reds which might slightly add for someone zooming in, but keeps the overall red impression in normal use. CMD (talk) 08:34, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

@Chipmunkdavis: That's great. Thank you very much! DeCausa (talk) 08:52, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Tripoli, Lebanon

All articles pertaining to city landmarks in Tripoli

Request

I would like to request a pushpin map for Tripoli, Lebanon, to be used on all pages related to locations within the city. This would greatly enhance the geographical context for readers and contribute to the overall quality of the articles. For your reference, I have included two links:

• A link detailing the city borders of Tripoli on Google maps.

• A link showcasing the neighborhoods within the city on on page 7 map. Please don't include al-Mina, Beddaoui, Mejdlaya, and other areas outside of the city limits.
  

Thank you for considering this request. -- el.ziade (talkallam) 18:29, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

I ended up making three maps. The list of articles grew too large, so splitting them up seemed right.

Do you have suggestions for improvement?

Do you want a border around the centre like in the example maps?

Groetjes, Peter (talk) 22:49, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

@Groetjes, Peter I can't thank you enough, very very well made maps, thank you! el.ziade (talkallam) 12:42, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

You're welcome. I've posted a message about the three resulting maps on the talk page of Tripoli, Lebanon. Can we call this request  Done? Groetjes, Peter (talk) 10:56, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

Request: Australia/Canada Abortion gestational Map by states and territory

Article(s)

Abortion in Australia

Abortion in Canada

Request

I want one map of Australia by states and territory with each state territory abortion gestational rule. and one map for Canada.

(Australia)

State or territory		Status	Details
Australian Capital Territory	Legal, free, and accessible (no gestational limit).	Must be provided by medical doctor. Health Minister may set 50 metre exclusion zones for protests.
New South Wales	Legal. Accessible up to 22 weeks.	Beyond 22 weeks legal with two doctors' approval. Safe access zones are set at 150 metres around abortion clinics.
Northern Territory	Legal. Accessible up to 24 weeks.	Beyond 24 weeks legal with two doctors' approval. Safe access zones of 150 metres provided around abortion clinics.
Queensland	Legal. Accessible up to 22 weeks.	Beyond 22 weeks legal with two doctors' approval. Safe access zones of 150 metres are provided around abortion clinics.
South Australia	Legal. Accessible up to 22 weeks and 6 days.	Beyond 22 weeks and 6 days legal with two doctors' approval. Safe access zones of 150 metres provided around abortion clinics.
Tasmania	Legal. Accessible up to 16 weeks.	Beyond 16 weeks legal with two doctors' approval. Safe access zones of 150 metres provided around abortion clinics.

Western Australia	Legal. Accessible up to 23 weeks.	Beyond 23 weeks legal with two doctors' approval. Safe access zones of 150 metres provided around abortion clinics.

(Canada)

There is no abortion law in Canada, but provincial and territorial health regulations
and professional bodies restrict the procedure to various grounds or gestational limits.
There are also significant disparities between rural and urban access to abortion.

Region	Gestational limits	# of providers	Notes
Alberta	20 weeks	5	The province has abortion services accessible in Edmonton and Calgary. All abortion services are offered.
British Columbia	23 weeks and 6 days	24	The province is governed by the Access to Abortion Services Act, which limits political demonstrations outside abortion-providing facilities, doctor's offices, and doctor's homes to set distances. BC Women's Hospital & Health Centre can provide late-term abortions in Vancouver up until the 25th week of pregnancy (its CARE Program). There are six abortion clinics throughout the province that can be accessed without a doctor referral and upwards of 30 hospitals that are required to perform abortions with a doctor's referral.
Manitoba	19 weeks and 6 days	4	The province has limited access for those in rural communities. Aspiration or surgical procedures are available for up to 19 weeks and 6 days. Medical abortions up to 9 weeks.
New Brunswick	16 weeks	5	New Brunswick does not use public funding to pay for abortion services outside of hospital settings. This means that abortions provided in clinics are not funded by the government.
Newfoundland and Labrador	15 weeks	4	Planned Parenthood Newfoundland and Labrador is the only sexual health clinic in the province. Full spectrum doula services.
Northwest Territories	19 weeks and 6 days	1	Northern Options for Women (abbreviated as NOW) provides both medical and surgical abortion services in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut.
Nova Scotia	16 weeks	11	In Nova Scotia, there is an abortion clinic in Halifax or someone needing an abortion can call the abortion helpline for other options throughout the province that may be closer to them.
Nunavut	12 weeks	2	All abortions must be performed in a hospital.
Ontario	23 weeks and 6 days	38	Intimidation of and interference with patients or providers are illegal in "safe access zones" around abortion-providing clinics and other requesting health care facilities; the offices (on request) of providing doctors, nurses, pharmacists and some other providers; and providers' homes under the Safe Access to Abortion Services Act, 2017. There are nine regions in Ontario where abortion is available with full spectrum doula services.
Prince Edward Island	12 weeks and 6 days	1	Prince Edward Island offers in province abortions up until 12 weeks and 6 days pregnant. After that limit, an out of province surgical abortion would have to be performed. A referral must be obtained through a PEI physician prior to any surgical procedure.
Quebec	23 weeks and 6 days	49	The province has a multitude of options for abortion access. Historically, late-term abortions (beyond 30 weeks) had to be performed in the US with all expenses paid by the Quebec government. This changed in 2020 because of Covid travel restrictions.
Saskatchewan	18 weeks and 6 days	3	Few resources available to those in rural areas.
Yukon	12 weeks and 6 days	1	Whitehorse General Hospital is the only location in Yukon available for both medical and early aspiration abortions.

Color-coded map illustrating availability of abortion in Canada, in weeks of embryonic age (from fertilization). Abortion is legal at all stages in Canada, but availability is subject to medical guidelines.

Available first 12 weeks (PEI)   Available first 13 weeks   Available first 16 weeks   Available first 19 weeks   Available first 20 weeks   Available first 24 weeks   Available first 25 weeks

@Muaza Husni, for clarification:

Canada

There's already a template that shows the Canadian situation: Is it OK (23 weeks + 6 days = 24 weeks)? Does it need an update? If so, what adjustments does it need?

Australia

{{Abortion map of Australia}} does not yet exist. Here's a map.svg that is related, but it doesn't portrait the limits nor the same style as the other maps on Abortion law#Comparative limits for countries with elective abortions.

Map Australia, Abortion legality

As an improvement of the map, I suggest to put a circle around the capitol, so it's way more visible what policy it has.

1) Do you want such an Australian map in the "Canadian style"?

2) Does the left map display the current Australian abortion laws? Or does it need an update?

Groetjes, Peter (talk) 08:15, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

@Groetjes, Peter Hi again, The Canadian map looks like the kind of map i wanted with the 'gestational age' (fertilization age), in weeks. The Australian map sadly doesn't have the 'gestational age' (fertilization age), in weeks. I would like the Australian abortion map to be like the Canadian and United states map with 'gestational age' (fertilization age), in weeks. It makes it simpler and similar. Thanks. Muaza Husni (talk) 01:39, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Just FYI, US gestational age differs from fertilization age by 2 weeks, and from pregnancy by 3 weeks [cf. the mexico map]. — kwami (talk) 04:58, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Let's not use confusing US standards / measurements in maps of other countries. The colours in the different maps are in sync, keeping in mind the differences kwami talked about.

Canadian:

What I need to know, with sources, is whether the map is up to date.

1. Has Nunavut changed its medical guidelines from up to 20 weeks, down to up to 12 weeks?
2. Has Manitoba changed its medical guidelines from 16 weeks, to up to 20 weeks (19w+6d)?

Australian:

1. I'll make the map, based on the data in the above table.
2. I know it's a slightly different map, but it would be nice if you could look into the laws behind it, to see if it's still up to date.

I'm just a mapmaker, not an expert on every topic. As a mapmaker, I think this old map displays the capitol policy very poorly. I'd like to improve it, but when I don't know whether things have changed, I'd better not.
