Simple map(s) of Finnish Defence Forces Areas of Responsibility from early 1950s

[edit]
  • A potential base map
    A potential base map

Article(s): en:User:Ljleppan/Polttoainehankinta

Request
(Moved from Commons:File requests)
I'm not certain what the best source map would be, but I'd appreciate a Commons-compatible version of the map of Figure 6 (page 37) of this PDF (also accessible via this link) for the draft currently at en:User:Ljleppan/Polttoainehankinta. In addition to the Areas of Responsibility, it would be good to show the locations of en:Helsinki, en:Porkkala and a few of the larger cities (Perhaps en:Turku, en:Vaasa, en:Oulu, en:Rovaniemi and en:Ivalo if possible without sacrificing legibility?).
I'd also greatly appreciate Commons-version of the map(s) in Figure 5 (page 31) of the same PDF, but that's less of a priority. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ljleppan (talk • contribs) 09:25, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect/missing colors of waterbodies

[edit]

Article(s): en:Vironniemi

Request
The map above is just an example; there are probably 100+ of these maps with incorrect/missing waterbody colors on maps of Helsinki. File:Helsinki districts.svg is the base map file and has the correct coloring; please compare it to the image above. Those incorrect maps were made by User:Stadscykel who later fixed some of them (e.g. Special:Diff/43585007, Special:Diff/43585930), but most of those maps still have incorrect/missing colors. Related discussions on fi.wikipedia: link and link, and here on Commons: link. --JAAqqO (talk) 01:06, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If someone ever decides to fix these, here is a list of 130 map files that need fixing:

Graphist opinion(s)
JAAqqO, please check the sample you highlighted which I have uploaded a new version of. If correct, the good news is that it is easy to recreate each map from the base File:Helsinki districts.svg (of course, the bad news is there are 130). Chipmunkdavis (talk) 02:03, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Chipmunkdavis, yes, that one looks good now, thank you. --JAAqqO (talk) 04:39, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
One of the discussions you linked mentions the colours are a poor choice for colour-blind users, may be worth considering that too before editing 130 files. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 02:07, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are changes and corrections that should be made to this map.

User-editable maps for more countries

[edit]

Can someone adapt the template for other countries too?

These SVG maps have user-editable sections (any text editor) to allow creation of more maps on more topics. See examples at Category:English-language SVG maps of the United States made with templates.

Version 2: Convert a US list/table to a state-by-state data map. With examples and step-by step instructions. Example:
Homicide rates per 100,000 by state. FBI.
Simple map below with state names and colored states. See its talk page.

--Timeshifter (talk) 19:14, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Timeshifter. I am not sure to directly help here but I would like to share some thoughts related to your request:
  • I found that for many users editing a "simple" text file such as svg is not so obvious. For this reason I think it will be nice to have a graphical interface to do so. For this reason I started working on a tool like this one. The interface is not very good but it has some nice features to help editing maps. I can upload more maps if needed.
  • Few years ago I made a proposal to seaparate the css files from the svg. In fact, we have a lot of maps that represent the same countries or regions but need different colours. I though that it will be good to have one svg with the geographica representation and a separate file for the colours. There was some intresting discussion on this but not accepted.
  • I think we will need to have some deeper discussion on the format for this kind of svg maps. I personally belive that it will be good to have some classes and features in the svg that can help automatic detection of specific elements or machine use for editing.
Sure this is not in line with your request but I hope this may help. Thanks Ikonact (talk) 08:19, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ikonact. cmglee is the main creator of the map templates. Maybe he can tell us what he thinks of your maps.
I have a question. Is there a way to paste in a list of states and values into your maps. To make maps with the data on the maps. That is what is possible with cmglee maps. It is very easy to do. Just need the list. A good set of colors is already in the map. Those colors can be changed.
cmglee can probably adapt this data map template method to other countries and their subnational areas (states, provinces, etc.). --Timeshifter (talk) 17:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's a useful tool, @Ikonact: Though I prefer scripting, I can see other editors preferring a GUI. Will it have a way to save a draft and resume editing, or to load someone else's map to make changes?
I didn't see your proposal in 2017, and would very much welcome having SVG files referencing or transcluding other files. I've been using a hack using systemLanguage so that a single SVG can generate different thumbnails, e.g. for each tower's article:
A limitation is that all variants must already be in file. Can we build on this idea? Cheers, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 09:39, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Cmglee: I remember, I have seen your svg with the towers and I find it a good idea. I find it a twist as the purpose of the systemLanguage is different but I agree it is a good work around. The main issue is that this will not work for multiple elements - if you wish to highlight several states on a map for example. I will be glad if we can propose something that make sense. I have to admit I am playing solo for the moment :-) Ikonact (talk) 13:33, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, @Ikonact: Ian Furst (talk · contribs) contacted me five years ago to create SVG that can selectively show any combination of selected medical symptoms, and we encountered the same problem. I ended up creating a template using en:template:location_map+ to make something like this. It might work for some niche use-cases. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 15:47, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Timeshifter: I have not done pasting list of states and values in teh code for this map but it is planned and I can work on this. I agree that this is useful. Ikonact (talk) 13:28, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a valid SVG file edited in Inkscape but saved as plain SVG. When I look at this file in Inkscape or in a web browser, the arrowheads are pointing in the correct direction.

Map of the route from the Varangians to the Greeks

[edit]

Article(s): en:Route from the Varangians to the Greeks

Request
I would like for the original image of 2017 (uploaded by Minnekon) to be restored, but with en:Truso in the correct place (namely on the right bank of the Vistula, as Artur Andrzej tried to move it in 2023). The issue with the 2023 correction is that the overall quality of the image has degraded. I tried to fix the problem myself by editing the 2017 original and moving Truso to the right bank in Microsoft Paint, but I got much the same result as Artur Andrzej in 2023. It probably has something to do with the .gif format that I do not understand. If anyone can make a higher-quality image in any other kind of format (like .svg), perhaps even with a different underlying map altogether, but showing much the same information, that would also be appreciated; I'm not tied to this image in particular. --Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 07:58, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Example of a map for the "State of Somaliland" (from the administrative point of view of the Somali authorities), which is not sufficiently country-centric.

Article(s): List of first-level administrative divisions by area (for example)

Request
Hello, having initially posted this request on the Commons:File requests page, it was suggested that I redirect here instead. Is it possible to create maps in the "SVG locator maps (location map scheme)" format for the States of Somalia? From what I see, this is one of the rare administrative subdivisions that does not yet have a map in this format. It would therefore be in addition to the regions of Somalia, which have their own category. --Ellicrum {bablute [...]} 13:24, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request
  1. Change the color for both Belarus and Ukraine to yellow from red, as both have non-commercial FoP (yellow is for non-commercial FoP countries).
  2. Change also Sweden to light green as there is indeed FoP only for buildings, but no commercial FoP for monuments and public art.

@Cmglee (note: the ping didn't work for some reason, but this page is on my watchlist as of now)
It is based on the Commons perspective (in which non-commercial uses are treated as "not OK"). But since that article is in English Wikipedia, it should be neutral and should not favor on Wikimedia side. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 08:02, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@JWilz12345: Got it. Did you mean "should not favor on Wikipedia side"? I think we should copy the code from File:Freedom_of_Panorama_in_Europe.svg and modify as needed to maintain consistency. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 08:33, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Cmglee ah yes, though for average readers, they always treat Wikipedia and Wikimedia as a single community. But that is another story.
And yes, it is best to use the same map. I've read somewhere that the former version of File:Freedom_of_Panorama_in_Europe.svg was purportedly hard to edit, and I assume the NC map used the same mapping code. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could put together a map of Africa overlayed with the maximum extent of some major kingdoms and empires. I can provide a list of kingdoms and empires that'll give a fair representation of the continent's history, although many of them might overlap so maybe have the fill transparent? At the moment we use File:African-civilizations-map-pre-colonial.svg which has extraordinary bias towards west and north Africa, and gets some of the territory wrong such as for Aksum and Hausa (which was never a kingdom). The map used would ideally include Arabia, the Levant, and some of Iberia as these were territories which were covered.

Hi everyone. The article about the battle of Peregonovka needs a map depicting the battle. In Colin Darch's 2020 book Nestor Makhno and Rural Anarchism in Ukraine, 1917-1921, he includes a map by cartographer Jenny Sandler depicting the overall battle (Map 5.1 The Engagement at Peregonovka, September 1919), based on the White movement's own maps published in the 1960s. If someone here would be able to draw up a similar map, based on Sandler's work, that would be very much appreciated.

I have extracted only the California portion of the 1968 U.S. presidential election's congressional district map to create a congressional district map for the 1970 California gubernatorial election, but I cannot match the projections.　--Dmsu (talk) 07:15, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request
I am short on time right now, but the map needs to be edited to mark the Russian occupied territories of Ukraine as disputed, perhaps with a grey/green stripe pattern. The grey colour may also need to be lightened to #C0C0C0. --Minoa (talk) 13:16, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Remaining additional spots on the map circled with blue circles; all these spots should be removed

Article(s): en:Yu'an, Lu'an

Request
(1) The little orange and pink spots should be removed from the en:Yu'an, Lu'an map (File:ChinaLuanYuan.png) somehow. I don't have the appropriate computer program to do this. The original uploader told me concerning a request to correct the en:Jin'an, Lu'an map (File:ChinaLuanJinan.png), after I had already pointed out the problem with the en:Yu'an, Lu'an map: "No. Please, don't disturb me agaqin. I'm not working on request." at 19:38, 21 May 2022 (UTC)- Revision #657865447. Therefore, I bring my request here since I don't want to disturb the original uploader. (2) I don't know if there is any other problem with the map; I would appreciate any deeper analysis. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:08, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@PawełMM: Hey thank you for your help! I see you removed the orange spot. However, there is still some orange spots in the lake immediately south-south-west of the Yu'an area (in red). Also, on the far east of the map, there is a pink spot. Do you see them??? Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:37, 19 August 2024 (UTC) (Modified)[reply]
 Half done There are still problems with the new map. Using Microsoft Paint, I have created a new image that I added above showing (with MS paint-created circles) the additional aberrant spots on the map. All of these spots should not appear on the map, and I request someone remove them somehow. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 01:11, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Combine two images to provide a third joint map

[edit]
  • Top half
    Top half
  • Bottom half
    Bottom half

Article(s): TBD

Request
The original book had these two maps on separate pages but they should line up top and bottom to produce a decent single map with the name File:Preliminary Map of Eastern Turkistan.jpg and the same metadata as the others apart from removing the "top" or "bottom" bit in the description and interlinking the files in the gallery section. Ideally, they should be combined without reducing the size or detail. I think everything should line up and overlap perfectly but it's possible one might need to be adjusted to match the proportions of the other scan to allow a clean overlay. Low priority but should be fairly fast and produce a good piece of work.-- — LlywelynII 18:43, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
