Hi. Thanks for all the work you've done creating the destination maps: it's good stuff. However, someone has pointed out that the map File:Heathrow_Airport_Destinations.svg has an error: Thailand has not been coloured (but should be), while Burma=Myanmar has been coloured (but should not be). It's probably easier for you to fix this than anybody else! Regards, --RFBailey (talk) 17:08, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Fixed :-) --Macadamia1472 (talk) 03:52, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello. File IAD Destinations.svg has an error. Please shade in Spain since UA has non-stop service from IAD to MAD. Shakbok (talk) 14:32, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Hello. Inspired by your work, I created a map for Düsseldorf Airport weeks ago and placed it above the related table about passenger destinations in the same paragraph. Is that wrong? There's user hidden behind an IP moving the map in a seperate paragraph with no additional informations. He did that with a couple of your maps, too (MUC, HAM etc.). From my point this is wrong - on Wikipedia and in academic work in general - as the map is visualizing the tables content and is therefor to be placed in the same paragraph. Correct? I'm still a little uncertain with all the Do's and Dont's at Wikipedia and so I did it your way weeks ago. Maybe I could use a little help. Thanks so far. --AviNation (talk) 23:35, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Macadamia1472, I checked your map of Indira Gandhi International Airport destinations on Wikipedia Commons. It seems little outdated (for example, Kenya is longer served). Please upload a fresh (updated) one as it is required for the Delhi airport article to show countries served from the airport. --M.soumen (talk) 17:14, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Macadamia1472, I love your work, that's some good stuff...So I just wanted to ask you how to do a map like those you did. Is there like a site or something?... I'd like to do maps of various airports and airlines if you could just tell me how. --Bluetree777380 (talk) 15:30, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Hello , how can I create such an airline route map here on wiki ? Similar to the one posted of LHR. Can't seem to find it.. Thanks in advance :) --Evergreen09 (talk) 18:14, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi, can you update the AMS/Schiphol map, according to the wiki page? Please add: Sint Maarten, Macedonia, Montenegro, Belgium, Luxembourg, Kuwait, Armenia, Senegal, Sri Lanka Please remove: Kosovo, Albania, Maldives, Nepal — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 31.161.105.18 (talk) 09:38, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

Airport maps

Hi, I just noticed you did several very cool maps of airport destinations. I downloaded the blank map, but don't know of to colour the countries. What software did you use to do that? Unless you wouldn't mind doing a map for Montreal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL). Thanks in advance. Mtlfiredude (talk) 14:07, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi MarrickLip! Is it possible for you to make a map of all the destinations served by Denver International Airport (DEN)? Thanks!

Your LGW Destinations map

Hi MarrickLip! I saw your map of London Gatwick destinations and I think it's great! But, it should also have India, Costa Rica, Nigeria and the Czech Republic all shaded as they are served directly by the airport. I've asked at the help desk about this, but I thought it might also be good to ask you as you're the author of the map. Anyway, thank you for your good work!

Thank you very much for your update to the map! Seagull123 (talk) 11:55, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
