Should be doable easily enough. Question is what's wanted: A day-by-day animated GIF, a map with point and/or area markers (to show either daily or overall unrest). I'd imagine the immediate priority is a simple "all to date" one, a map showing all unrest to this point? File:Greater London UK district map (blank).svg is probably better as the base for this. The rioting is not restricted to London now either [1], but affecting other areas - so an England-wide or UK-wide map is probably going to be needed too.--Nilf anion (talk) 09:45, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NNW, I'm using QGIS to produce similar maps, but I fail to put the administrative layers upon the Naturalearthdata.com physical layers. Do you have some tips to let them match each other ?

what is your source for rivers ? (mine is too detailed)
is there a specific projection to tinker ?
did you simply worked only with the CIESIN / n⁰2 GIS files without mix with naturalearthdata or other ?

(I'm begging in GIS, please give me some directions) Yug (talk) 13:45, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't use QGIS so I won't be a help in this, and naturalearth either. I take the rivers from WDB II (but not all of them), the coastline from VMAP Level 0 (better than WDB II) and the administrative boundaries from CIESIN (adjusting them to the rivers). Now and then they have to be corrected a little bit, for this I take a look at the maps you can find in the articles about the provinces. You have to take an equirectangular projection. That's all I'm doing. Of course I would create all maps of Chinese provinces but a) I am working on Norwegian maps, too (lacking of many maps, quite an embarrassment), so it might take some time, and b) a demand like "I am only expecting one map per week, which should be fairly reasonable" is quite ridiculous and will be ignored by me. This is a project made by voluntaries. Otherwise I want to be paid which should be fairly reasonable, too. NNW (talk) 08:18, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks NNW. I see for the technical side, for rivers I was indeed suspecting the WDB, which I don't use yet, I will. :) Keep on your projects, I can manage China on my side since I'm interested by this field, and I now found a way to do it. First upload soon.

Last, NNW, I really agree with your answer: Xiaoyu, we graphists are volunteers, doing high quality maps is technically quite complex and need a bunch of continous hours, generally a full free day or weekend to simply launch a country-project and output the first maps. This aside of our professional and family lives which are still our priorities. We simply can't provide strict timelines: we are common humans mapping in our free time —a scarce resources for all of us—, if no free time, we are mapping 'later'.

NNW, please can you overfly your image to see and answer to my questions. That's there commons:File:China_Shandong_location_map.svg Yug (talk) 06:40, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Both VMAP and WDB II are quite old data and have several mistakes. Now and then I check it with satellite images and other maps if there are major mistakes and correct it (e.g. the Three Gorges Dam is missing almost everywhere). This is normal cartographic work, I refuse to name all the different satellite images, atlasses and maps I use for it, it would be to much and won't help any reader. Boundaries and rivers are adjusted manually in the end so they match. Most WP map makers just bring different sources into one file no matter if they match or not. I prefer the classical way of map making which leads to some finishing work but it looks better and is correct cartography. NNW (talk) 07:54, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Request: Is it possible to make an easily editable map of North America (by "easily editable" I mean possible to copy and paste onto paint, use the paint bucket and colour in a country with ease), like the one above, with country detail? The ones we have usually need to have an .SVG editor and aren't the best quality, and the ones we have on North American relations pages don't look as sophisticated as European ones, again like the one above. 64.229.153.236 (talk) 00:32, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): That European map should be in SVG format. SVGs are easily editable using a text editor like Notepad. Most of the blank SVG region maps are derived from the blank world map, instructions on how to use which are here. Just pick your color in hex format, and find the corresponding country code to use it on.

But even if you want a PNG format, just go to the page of the blank SVG file, click on the 2000px preview, and save it. Ta-dah, a file you can use in *shudder* Paint. -MissMJ (talk) 02:32, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have taken a look at the map used on the page Canada United-States relations and I can't see what is wrong with that map.

Request: Although the map is good, I would consider that adding borders for regions in Republika Srpska would be welcomed. I'm not profound with maping and I think no one should have something against it (England map has also borders for its regions). Here is a link for the regions (found in article Municipalities of Republika Srpska). Although Brčko District is maped in it, it is an entity of its own, not a part of Republika Srpska. But it is maped to keep a contiunity of the regions. AnelZukic (talk) 03:58, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s):

I can't make heads or tails of your story. Do you want a map of the Srpska Regions in a color different from the rest of the region. Or do you want the border to be outlined with a different color or with a thicker line. You mention England. Can you perhaps give a map of England in which everything is drawn as you want it to be drawn in this map? Please be more clear. Wereldburger758 (talk) 06:49, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for not being clear enough. No, I don't want the regions in different colors, I wanted something like this, but just the lines same as the one used to seperate the cantons, that means not that thick, since the regions are part of Republika Srpska, and now they look like, how to say, more political important, what is not really what I want. Here is what I thought with England (link), but the situation in England isn't that complex as in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which has two two main political entities, FBiH which is divided in ten cantons and RS which is divided in seven regions. So to make it short, I would just like if you would make the recent, by you made, lines a bit less thick, that means as thick as the one used to seperate the cantons within Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. And their is a little part of Sarajevo-Romania region (it's seperated from the core region) that you have put in Foča region and the border of Vlasenica region isn't really correct (here, I circled the mistakes link).

Map of central San Diego with a pushpin for Point Loma

Article: Point Loma, San Diego

Request: Problem with the location of the pushpin on the pushpin map at this article. Please see the discussion at Talk:Point Loma, San Diego#About that location map.... Point Loma is a peninsula geographically, and is a neighborhood of San Diego politically; the neighborhood is basically contiguous with the peninsula. The map at the top of the page is not a good representation, because it shows the entire Point Loma area with a pushpin located way down at the extreme southernmost tip of the peninsula. Several of us have agreed that the pushpin is misleading because it suggests that only the tip of the peninsula is Point Loma, when in fact the whole peninsula is. At the very least, Point Loma is everything south of a line connecting the river mouth with the bay; many would consider it to be everything south of the river, north of the bay, and east of I-5. That area is too big (on the scale shown) for any pushpin to be accurate, and we are leaning toward simply deleting the pushpin. None of us knows how to do that! Another approach would be to shift to a different map scale which would reduce Point Loma to a size appropriate for a pushpin.

We need a new map for the Age of consent article (note: a former request for a map at Ages of consent in North America has been resolved - we now have a new map of the continent of North America there- this request is for the main article Age of consent for a global map).

There are several problems with the existing map (this one-http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Age_of_Consent.png).

1. several countries have the wrong age . These countries are listed at the talk page at Talk:Age_of_consent#New_map_needed: these are the countries which need their age modified on the map - for example where it says on the talk page "Iceland: 15, not 14" it means that the correct age of consent in Iceland is 15, the new map therefore must show 15.

2. several countries have 'puberty' as an age of consent, the existing map doesn't even have a legend color for puberty. The jurisdictions which have 'puberty' for an age of consent are listed on the talk page at Talk:Age_of_consent#New_map_needed

3. there are problems with the shades of blue used on the map (9, 12, 13, 14, 15 are barely distinguishable). Several users have complained about this: see File_talk:Age_of_Consent.png#Color_coding.

I suggest using File:BlankMap-World6, compact.svg as a base. Pick out the hex values of the necessary number of colors, then go into the SVG code. Use CSS and the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code for each country (since every country shaped is named with that code in the blank map) to make it the right color. It wouldn't be terribly difficult, just time consuming to look up all the country codes. If anyone wants to start providing a list of the codes for each age, it would be easier on whoever puts the map together. -MissMJ (talk) 22:16, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The only problem with that file, MissMJ, is that at least two countries - the USofA and Mexico - have to be broken up into smaller segments for state laws. Which may be easy for others, but it's what puts this out of my range. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 16:10, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh blasted USA and its contempt for federal government, making life difficult. *grumblegrumble* Okay, I'll think on how this can be fixed. -MissMJ (talk) 19:59, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mexico's even worse - unorganized state and local rules, and age varies depending on the partner and situation as well. USofA at least keeps it to 50 well-documented state laws. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:34, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Blech. I'm wondering if it would be better to assign another color to nations where laws vary by state/province/region as a "see these other, more close-up maps for details" and then just make those separately. -MissMJ (talk) 22:31, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is a good idea. We could simply assign a legend color for "varies by state/province/region/territory" (while using this map - File:BlankMap-World6, compact.svg) and then have detailed maps for the US, Mexico and Australia. 188.25.160.50 (talk) 14:07, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay if someone can give me a list of all the ages with the corresponding ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes (like, age 9: xx, xx, xx; age 10: xx, xx, xx; and so on [wtf there's countries where 9 and 10 year olds can legally consent?! D: D: D: what is wrong with the world...]), I can make a map using File:BlankMap-World6, compact.svg. -MissMJ (talk) 19:17, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Err, I guess some of the info for this moved to my talk page. I'll post the final map here once it's done. -MissMJ (talk) 02:07, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, it's done! Technically, that North American map needs to be redone in SVG too, using File:North America second level political division 2.svg and File:BlankMap-Caribbean.svg. If someone can provide me with a list of codes for the Caribbean countries and US/Mexican states, with the corresponding age of consent, I can make those as well. -MissMJ (talk) 21:01, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Great work!188.25.163.68 (talk) 22:14, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Finished the ones for North/Central America and the Caribbean. -MissMJ (talk) 22:49, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rhode Island locator map[edit]

Resolved

Locator map for Rhode Island

Article(s): Rhode Island

Request: Where to start...

The border widths need to be drastically reduced
The part in the big box should actually match the part in the little box
Long Island should not be transparent
The default size of the SVG should be larger

You may just want to redo this one from scratch. Kaldari (talk) 04:14, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Looks like this one has already been done. Kmusser (talk) 17:28, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): Request taken by Wereldburger758.

HI, you need to include the eastern croatia territories as parts of rebel serb held territories, and you should remove the two smaller enclaves in eastern bosnia,since they were overrun by serb rebels in 1995 Drax90 (talk) 15:49, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The smaller enclaves in Eastern Bosnia. Are the enclaves that are pointed out in the picture: http://s938.photobucket.com/albums/ad223/flyingdutchman12/?action=view&current=Former_Yugoslavia_2006_g_a.png the ones you mean?

yes,and i forgot o tell you to also remove the third enclave as well based on this map:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Srpska_claims_Jan_93.png

Were these enclaves in the end controlled by Serb forces? The map http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Srpska_claims_Jan_93.png shows Srpska CLAIMS. The first map does show the enclaves. It is necessary to be precise. Wereldburger758 (talk) 12:11, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

yes they were Drax90 (talk) 12:30, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I take your word for it. See new map. Wereldburger758 (talk) 12:39, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

btw. can you colorize other e-yu countries like you did on the last map? Drax90 (talk) 13:07, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

sorry but you forgot to color the islands in blue and you have crossed into the land area with the adriatic sea and could you erase the borders inside the occupied areas and put them like you did in the first map? Drax90 (talk) 14:55, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The reason that I have taken some land from Italy and made sea of it, is because I have acquired some divine powers. With these same powers I can give it back to Italy. Erased the borders of the occupied areas and made the islands blue. Any more requests? Wereldburger758 (talk) 15:38, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

well,yes you forgot to put the border on the eastern part of croatia,and you could rename it to "Former Yugoslavia 1991-1995",and no more requests,for the time being :) Drax90 (talk) 16:35, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

border added to eastern part of Croatia, and rename request added to page. Wereldburger758 (talk) 21:47, 17 October 2011 (UTC):Hello again,just wanted to ask you if you could also remove the inner borders within FR Yugoslavia/Serbia-Montenegro? Drax90 (talk) 19:20, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion(s): You might want to give it a shot yourself - editing an SVG map is extremely easy. Try w:Inkscape, for example. Classical geographer (talk) 15:36, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
