File talk:US map-West.png

February 2008 changes

I have uploaded a new version of this map which includes the West Coast states as part of the West, without stripes. This image was originally removed from the en:Western United States page, as editors found it strange that the West Coast states were labeled as "may or may not be considered part of present-day western United States." It seems apparent to me that the West Coast states should be colored in dark red as they are "usually", if not always, included in a definition of the Western U.S. Cheers, Raime 23:03, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
