Request: (Concerns improvement of the 3rd map.) Many of the concerned territories consist only of some small islands. The information in this map is color-coded and the small area of the islands makes it hard to actually see, which territories are colored blue and which red (even in this view and when enlarging the view, I think the important information isn't visible very well). Could someone maybe surround the smaller islands with a lighter tone of the respective color, so that there will be larger, lightly colored areas? This could be done by highlighting the territorial watersorexclusive economic zones (see first and second image). -- ToshioYamaguchi 14:35, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Request: It would be nice to update those 2008 maps (yes, both, confusing, isn't it)? There is a bunch of nicer, more informative maps on the web, with legends that also give information about mission timeframe, size, and name. See [1], [2], [3] (bottom of the article), [4], [5]or[6].

Hal Jespersen has done a great job in creating battle maps of the American Civil War. But he has uploaded them in png-format. On his site ([7]) he offers the battle maps also in AI-format (Adobe Illustrator). These can be opened in Inkscape. So they can be converted to SVG. For those willing....

Request: Conversion to SVG
Note that there's an explicit CC-by-3.0 release for the maps. Nyttend (talk) 15:54, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Request:
The district map of the Indian state of Tripura is available at File:Tripura map.png. However, in 2012, the numbers of districts was increased to eight from four. So, we are in need of a new district map. The new district map can be sourced from this website which is the website of Tripura Industrial Development Corporation. Thanks a lot for the help.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:33, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request: To assist a fellow Wikipedian in their quest to produce a GA article for the above, I produced this push-pin locator map so that the article had some form of map. I am now feeling a bit guilty about how poor it looks, and I feel that I should humbly request a better one for their article. Something similar to the Susquehanna map, would be ideal Jokulhlaup (talk) 17:47, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by Kmusser (talk) 19:06, 4 April 2013 (UTC)., I did that Susquehanna map so should still have the files to do this one, will hopefully get to it this weekend. Kmusser (talk) 19:06, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks for picking up this request Jokulhlaup (talk) 17:23, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Done, let me know if you need anything else on there. Kmusser (talk) 01:04, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, that's an impressive map. Many thanks Jokulhlaup (talk) 17:13, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
A map of the worldwide scope of the Church of the Brethren:
Headquarters of the Church (United States and Puerto Rico)
Current overseas missions (Brazil; the Dominican Republic; Haiti; Nigeria and Oku, Cameroon; and Southern Sudan)
Churches that are the result of mergers with other Protestant missions (Ecuador's United Andean Indian Mission and the Church of North India; a single Indian church still belongs to the Church of the Brethren)
Foreign missions that have closed (Argentina, China, Denmark and Sweden, France and Switzerland, Indonesia, Niger, and Turkey)
Request: Some one really needs to take a look at the map for the districts of the Church of the Brethren. Most of it is OK, but North America is covered by two misshapen triangles. It is an obvious error that has been up since 2010.--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 18:00, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Graphist opinion(s): Done, those triangles haven't been there long if you look at the image history, I updated to a newer version of the world map which fixed that and the South Sudan boundary as well. Kmusser (talk) 19:22, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
/ALIGNMENT PROBLEM/ Something in line=Elizavetgrad and 2 blank lines below it causes misalignment. Remove them and problem goes away. "Perekop" should be at the head of the Crimean Peninsula/ ( Base=test2j.1)
Graphist opinion(s): The "position=bottom" after Elezavetgrad is what's causing the problem, change that to "position=right" like the others. Kmusser (talk) 18:34, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Reply: I just tried that and it did not work. 2. added good version. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 21:34, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fix was the same. Kmusser (talk) 13:32, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Replaced with better example. Problem is paired line-feeds as indicated on the map label.Benjamin Trovato (talk) 06:29, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't understand what you are trying to do here. Yes, adding blank lines messes up the template, so don't do that. Kmusser (talk) 08:37, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
1. Why should a blank line in source code change the output? No other language does that. 2. I can't think of a reason why anyone would want to push a map location south of its correct lat/long. Therefore its a bug, not a feature. 3. Anyone who adds a blank line must either trace the bug or produce an incorrect map. 4. Person who wrote the underlying code should be informed so he can see what the problem is. A visible bug sometimes implies invisible bugs. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 22:15, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Request has been moved to the above location and they are looking at it, so this section can be archived or deleted. Thanks. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 21:38, 24 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Errors: A. Moscow should be north in the circular Moscow Oblast; B. Blank at bottom of map. Clues: 1. Removing line=dummy solves the problem. 2. Removing blank lines 2,4 or 6 raises, removing all 3 fixes. 3. Duplicating the 7 blank lines pushes down. 4. Adding blank lines with the enter key pushes down, so its the line-feed character, not an embedded hidden character, but 5. Adding blank lines below 'dummy' has no effect unless a second 'dummy' line is added below them. 6. Ukraine location map~ has the same problem, so it is probably the code for all loc maps.
A world map showing the provinces of the Anglican Communion (Blue). Also shown are the churches in full communion with the Anglican Communion: the Nordic Lutheran churches of the Porvoo Communion (Green) and the Old Catholic churches of the Utrecht Union (Red).
Got alot of issues with this map that I have been trying to draw attention to.
2. Nepal and the Central African Republic are blue, but I cannot find a RS saying that they are served by an AC member. The most logical AC affiliates, the Church of North India and the Anglican Church of the Congo do not have responsibility for the CAR, that I can find.
3. Rwanda, which does have an AC affiliate, the Anglican Church of Rwanda appears to be grey on the map.
b.The Palestinian territories, apparently represented with a grey dot in the Anglican Communion map, are colored light blue in the Episcopal Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East map, indicating that they are served by the Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem. And by all accounts, that diocese is supposed to cover the Palestinian territories.
I'll go with the diocesan website as the accurate one. Now according to this site the Archdeaconry of of France serves both France and Monaco. The archdeacon of Gibraltar serves Gibralter, Andorra, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Madeira and the Canary Islands. The archdeacon of Italy and Malta serves those countries and the Archdeaconry of Northwest Europe includes the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg. Putting aside, for a moment, the Western European countries that have Old Catholic affiliates, Monaco, Malta, Andorra, Belgium, Luxembourg, Madeira and even Gibraltar itself are grey.
b. The eastern archdeaconry includes a broad area, most of which is grey in the map. The archdeacon himself has special responsibility for Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Another area dean has responsibility for Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Albania, Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro and Bosnia. And finally another dean is assigned "Chaplaincies in the former Soviet Union (excepting the Baltic States), Poland and Mongolia" (despite our map for the Diocese of Gibraltar and Europe showing Kazachstan as white)
c. The Northern archdeaconry includes Germany and "Nordic and Baltic States: includes Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Estonia and Latvia" (despite what it shows on our map for the Diocese of Gibraltar and Europe, there is no specific mention of Iceland, the Faeroe Islands or Lithuania.)
d. The US affiliated Convocation has a different structure listed here
They have a presence in France, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Austria, Switzerland and even Almaty, Kazakhstan.
Now we could handle this a couple of ways. We could stripe the areas with a Porvoo/Utrecht affiliate blue/ green and blue/red to show that there is an Anglican proper presence in the country. We could also use insets for Europe, showing the overlapping jurisdictions of the Diocese of Gibralter and the Convocation of Euorpean churches. But in any case, Gibraltar, Belgium, Austria and Malta need to be blue as the Anglican affiliates certainly have a physical presence there
I'm sorry if I'm over thinking this, its just been bugging the hell out of me for awhile.--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 18:00, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Map of the world (part) in global perspective[edit]
Resolved
Request:
I am in need of a maps (or maps) like the one here: [8]. These kind of maps can be found here on wikipeda and on wikimedia, but I cannot find them. What is the category that they are placed under? Wereldburger758 (talk) 05:55, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I found them: [9] but it took me a long time to find them. Wereldburger758 (talk) 06:16, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Map of the Motorways in the Republic of Ireland[edit]
Request: The first image is currently used in the article and it just includes all roads in Ireland (and is also outdated). Is it possible for someone to create just a map showing the motorways in the Republic? I included a map of something similar which is done for motorways in the UK. There are currently 12 motorways in Ireland, this map will help brighten up the article. Thanks Rctycoplay (talk) 23:52, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Graphist opinion:
My first one... Is this along the lines you were thinking? Arc is producing those white lines so I'll just make it a png... but before doing that, did I miss any, and would you like any other ROI road maps?. PhnomPencil (talk) 18:12, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
