Adding late Eyalets to a map

  •  
    Anatolian Eyalets to be added
  •  
    The Map on to which the new Eyalets should be added

Article(s): قائمة إيالات الدولة العثمانية

Request
Can you please create the borders of the Anatolian Eyalets (from the first map) in the second map? I created one my self As you can see, but i don't believe its accurate enough, and i just copied 1 Eyalet on to the map, so if you could place all of the borders shown in the 1st map it would be better (no need to keep the red color). Thanks--باسم (talk) 09:09, 25 January 2017 (UTC)

@باسم: As always the first map (donor) doesn't have the same rotation, relationships as the target map. I have superimposed the borders from the donor map on the target map and adjusted rotation and scale. The borders to be drawn are red here.
As yo can see on this test image it's very hard to get a perfect match and I really have no clue on which of the red borders you want in the map and if any of the original borders then should be removed?
You have to help me here. Can you download the image and draw on it to tell me how you want it, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 17:51, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: i have removed the black boarders that are not needed. you can download it here. Thank you again--باسم (talk) 18:41, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
@باسم: Now there is a draft for you to look at. You should check it thoroughly.

@Goran tek-en: this is it   great. When its done it should be uploaded as a new image and shoulden't replace the old one, because it talks about a diffreant time era--باسم (talk) 17:41, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

Dear @Houdinipeter: , thank you for the translated version of the map. The translation is correct, but there is one thing, Arabs don't call the mentioned wars as others do. Yom Kippur War is called حرب أكتوبر (or "حرب تشرين" the more common name between Asian arabs) which means "October War". In addition, "Six-Day War" is called حرب 1967. Making the mentioned changes is highly appreciated. And thank you again. --Aladdin (talk) 01:54, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

  Request taken by Goran tek-en (talk) 21:20, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

@Seb26: So, now I need your feedback and information on this draft.
  • The exakt area is really hard to achieve as there are no good base maps of Gran Jardín de la Sierra, tell me if/what to change.
  • You have to tell me what kind of information you want in the map, citys, rivers etc or just an location map like this, tell me, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 19:02, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
Hi Goran tek-en. Yes, the borders do not appear to be well documented, or at least that I could find. I think the area that you have marked is good enough. If, in the future, any of us come across some sort of official line marking guide according to a law, it could be potentially updated in the future. Do you think you could mark the following: the country names Colombia, Ecuador and Brazil; the borders of the Colombian departments Nariño, Putumayo and Cauca? Those are the most important signifiers, as for cities or rivers I do not think any are as relevant as the Colombian department borders. I don't have any links for the definitions of the department borders but I can advise further if needed. Cheers. seb26 (talk) 00:19, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
@Seb26: New draft for you to look at, probably you have to update your browser window to get the new version. I guess you meant Peru and not Brazil. Tell me what to change, thanks.
Eventually I will need the following;
* Name of the file
* Description
* Category/ies at commons
to be able to upload it at commons. --Goran tek-en (talk) 15:30, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
Goran tek-en, it looks great. Changes: It could be beneficial to crop tighter on the left-hand side, i.e. where the "E" of Ecuador is currently situated, that could be very the final left edge for the whole image, mainly because Ecuador is just less relevant to this topic. Additions: a city marker for Ipiales, Pasto, Mocoa, and if visible, Cali, labels for the departments Huila and Caqueta which I think are the only other ones in the remaining blank area in the top right corner.

Graphist opinion(s)

@Mr. Fulano: I could help you with that but as I don't really understand the current map I will need your help on this.

  • There is so much information in that map, do you need all of it?
  • Does the overall areas of the two maps show the ones you need or can we zoom in closer?
  • On the left map, is it important to show the mountains, is it not more important to show the different locations better?
  • On the right map, do you need the coloring for heights?
  • To my understanding I can't anyway copy the map right of, read here. Did you check if this was free to take? --Goran tek-en (talk) 16:47, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: The most important is the species localization, so you can close the right map. If you can, put a localization map in Peru. I thinking the height is important, but if you can't do this, you can remove. And the image is in CC, how you can see here, in authors section. I've been created the article, is here. Mr. Fulano (talk) 17:12, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

  Request taken by Goran tek-en (talk) 18:33, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

@Mr. Fulano: I want you to look at this draft. It's only for the base map, I want to know if it's OK for you?
  • Are the red and white circles the localization's, if so do you want numbers on the different ones?
  • What do you mean by "If you can, put a localization map in Peru", do you mean the borders of Peru? --Goran tek-en (talk) 18:41, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: In fact, the localization is the yellow circle. The red and white circles is the other species localization and isn't the most important. And when I said that, I wanted talk to do anything like this, showing where the map close, on the bottom. Mr. Fulano (talk) 18:59, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
@Mr. Fulano: I'm sorry but I'm totally lost now...
You started of with wanting a svg version of the map you linked to. Then you wrote the right side map didn't need to be included, now you say the localization is the yellow circle which to me is in the right side map. Then you link to a totally other map and say you want something like that.
You have to realize that I have no knowledge of this subject and I can't read your thought's. You have to tell me exactly what you want otherwise I can't help you and both you and I wast time on something which turn out to be wrong.
So we have to start from the beginning, you have to tell me what area the map should cover to start with. --Goran tek-en (talk) 19:40, 13 July 2017 (UTC)
@Goran tek-en: I'm sorry, I did not explain well. What I want is a map that shows the location of the Rhinella lilyrodriguezae (yellow dot) that is represented in the smaller map. So I would like this map to be focused, but showing below, like the other map I showed you, the area of the map that has been enlarged. Mr. Fulano (talk) 20:18, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

@Mr. Fulano: I want you to look at this image. Is it OK to have this a base map for the overall location or must that also be a topographic map?
Do you know if the natur of the location is in mountains or is it green land? It's just the map you linked to start with that shows it as green, every other map I have checked has much more mountains there. --Goran tek-en (talk) 17:50, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: For me is great. And answering the other ask, I don't know, but I think is a forest and a mountain. Mr. Fulano (talk) 20:58, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
@Mr. Fulano: Now there is a draft for you to look at. I don't know how much you know about the difference between a bitmap image (e.g. digital photo) and a svg image. In a bitmap every pixel has information about color, position and so on. So they are very good to show e.g. a topographic map. A svg is more like a mathematical image, you don't have information on every pixel in the same way. Svg is normally better for e.g. solid colors, lines and so on. When a topographic map is created as a svg it becomes very big in Mb because there are so many different nodes it has to hold information on and still the outcome is not as smooth as a bitmap version.
With that said here is the draft for you to look at and give me feedback on, anything goes. Do you want a legend with explanation, scale, north etc.?
@Goran tek-en: I'd want a SVG map because the actual map isn't so visible and I'm so busy to create it . And for me, the draft is great, and isn´t necessary put the legend, because I can descript it in the infobox article.
@Mr. Fulano: If you are happy with the draft and don't want anything changed I will need the following;
  • Name of the file: Distribution map of Rhinella lilyrodriguezae.jpg
  • Description: The green diamond corresponding the Rhinella lilyrodriguezae distribuition and the red stripe is the limits of Cordillera Azul National Park.
  • Category/ies at commons: Rhinella lilyrodriguezae, Rhinella distribution maps and SVG maps of Peru.

Graphist opinion(s)

@باسم: As often with animated gif's there is a lot of work in translating them. This one is even more demanding as the color of the names changes in the different images. I have found out one way to do this without spending an enormous amount on time. If you look at this draft and the cities of Tal Afar and Mosul. I can do it that way but the color of the names will not change, it will be the same all the time.
So I want you to tell if that is OK and if that size of Arabic text is readable? Please ping me, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 18:44, 6 August 2017 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: everything looks great! As for the two names: Babylon = بابل, and Ur = أور. Nothing seems to require translation in the legend. I can't see if there is a "km" or "mile" sign, if there is then km = كلم and mile = ميل. Thanks--باسم (talk) 19:15, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

    Map of England South
Request
Hi - I am currently updating English club rugby union on Wikipedia. I like to create pages with a map for each league showing the team locations. Currently there are a number of regional maps of England but nothing for the south west of the country - the nearest available is of England south (File:England south location map.svg). I am not sure how to modify the England south map to create a south-west version and would appreciate it if someone could help me with this. Ideally the map would extend from Cornwall in the West as far as Berkshire to the east, and up to around Worcestershire in the north. This would help make the regional league maps less cluttered and clearer. The Wikipedia article link listed above may help give you an idea of what is needed. Thanks. Jgjsmith006 (talk) 08:58, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s)

Jgjsmith006 will this map work for your needs? - Offnfopt(talk) 20:18, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Offnfopt - that's really great - thank you. However, is there any chance of having one without the county borders (more like the England South map - which only has borders for regions) as the additional lines could interfere with location text. Thanks. Jgjsmith006 (talk) 08:00, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
Jgjsmith006 here is a alternative version using the map you posted File:England southwest location map.svg. Offnfopt(talk) 03:47, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
Offnfopt - that's even better (in fact perfect). I will see if I can create a location template in Wikipedia and then I will use this map. Thank you for all your help. Jgjsmith006 (talk) 09:16, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
  •   Comment @Jgjsmith006: The map shouldn't display regional boundaries, they have very little relevance to anything - counties are more useful as they have much better recognition. County lines don't really get in the way of text either so I wouldn't worry about that.
Ideally the boundaries should be pertinent to rugby (cf w:English rugby union system#The system). The two alternatives are using the boundaries of the individual County Football Unions (like Dorset & Wilts) or using the combination of the CFUs that feed the 5th tier leagues (so the government region plus Berks, Bucks and Oxon). My preference is to showing the CFUs, as then the same map can be used for lower leagues.
@Offnfopt: as it stands your map isn't usable for a location map, what are the lat/long boundaries?--Nilfanion (talk) 08:21, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
Nilfanion no idea what the lat/long boundaries are since I was editing a existing SVG. The location map template guys who deal with this often may have tricks to estimating the lat/lot by overlaying with other maps. Offnfopt(talk) 08:55, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
This is certainly not as easy as I thought it was going to be - I thought it would be as simple as adding the map image to a location template and away we go. I tried using the maps in my Wikipedia Sandbox (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Jgjsmith006/sandbox) but the coordinates are well off. I am used to doing fairly basic edits and this looks a bit out of my league at this moment in time. Any further feedback/comments appreciated guys!!! Jgjsmith006 (talk) 17:52, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
Jgjsmith006 at this point I think it is best for you to post over to the people at W:Wikipedia:WikiProject Geographical coordinates or W:Module talk:Location map and see if they can get rough boundary coordinates for you so you can get the new template working. Like I said above, hopefully they can overlay with other maps and estimate the coords that can be used in the location template. Though if anyone here reading this has the resources and ability feel free to chime in. Offnfopt(talk) 20:38, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
  Request taken by Nilfanion (talk) 22:13, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
Jgjsmith006 I'll get this sorted over weekend, as I should have enough free time then. I'll also sort the other regions at same time, because why not?
Offnfopt, so long as you crop to precise pixels its reasonably straightforward to calculate lat/long. For instance if you split the first map precisely in half (x=408), then that boundary is halfway between the two original edges (4.375W).--Nilfanion (talk) 22:13, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
 
Rugby Union in the SW

Jgjsmith006 Now done. See map to right. I have also created w:Module:Location map/data/England South West RFU, so you should have no difficulties over on WP now. I can do similar maps for the other 3 regions (IMO a bespoke rugby map is much better than a generic one).--Nilfanion (talk) 20:59, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Nilfanion - that's brilliant! Will use to update all South West regional pages now. Thanks for your work - appreciate it. Jgjsmith006 (talk) 09:08, 4 September 2017 (UTC)

Maurya Empire map

Request
I made this request at the English Wikipedia map workshop around 5 months back, but there was no response. So, I'm trying my luck here.
Can someone create a freely-licensed SVG map based on this map? The linked map is from A History of India (4th edition) by Hermann Kulke and Dietmar Rothermund, p. 69.
We've several maps of the Maurya Empire, which look something like this: File:Maurya Empire, c.250 BCE 2.png. According to Hermann Kulke and Dietmar Rothermund's book, this is not an accurate representation of the empire's territory, as there were several unconquered tribes and uninhabited regions which were not under Mauryan control.
It's be great if we can have an alternative map. The map linked above is a PDF file, easily convertible to SVG. Besides not being free, the original map is quite cluttered. Removing the edict labels, the Nanda empire borders and the roads will probably make it cleaner. -- Utcursch (talk) 18:22, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

@Hariboneagle927: I essentially cropped the two maps to generate the eight sub-maps. I made the assumption to retain a square aspect ratio. The latitude and longitude were computed for each map. I'm not sure if I got all the island groups for Mindanao, though. Cheers, Mliu92 (talk) 17:27, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
Great, thanks for the maps. And yes you missed an island for the Mindanao group. The little island between Palawan and the rest of Mindanao near Malaysia are part of Tawi Tawi province.Hariboneagle927 (talk) 03:49, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
@Hariboneagle927: I uploaded new versions of the Mindanao maps. Since retaining the square aspect ratio would have meant showing a great deal of Palawan and Visayas, I changed the crop closer to 4:3. Cheers, Mliu92 (talk) 14:38, 27 October 2017 (UTC)

Finnusertop or Yupik I notice you two have the Finnish to English translator userbox on your English wiki pages. Would one of you be willing to type out the translation for the text in the image above? Huldra is requesting a English version, so if we can get a translation I could make the new image. Any help would be appreciated, thank you. - Offnfopt(talk) 03:56, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: Thanks a lot! The number have been named on this version https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jerusalem-1_Jht.svg ...it is basically the gates in the wall, and it would be useful both for the numbers to remain, and with a list naming them, Huldra (talk) 20:29, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
@Huldra: Then I will need that list in English, number-name, thanks. --Goran tek-en (talk) 15:55, 28 December 2017 (UTC)
@Huldra: I need that list as above to be able to continue. --Goran tek-en (talk) 19:22, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

@Goran tek-en: Sorry, missed this. Try this:

  • 1 Herod's Gate
  • 2 Lions' Gate
  • 3 Golden Gate (Jerusalem)
  • 7 Jaffa Gate
  • 11 Zion Gate
  • 12 Damascus Gate

You should change the numbers, so they go 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc, Huldra (talk) 21:54, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

@Huldra: New draft to check.
@Goran tek-en: , well, I have difficulties finding the names for all the structures, some of them are former structures. Therfor, I propose that we keep them unnamed. By changing the numbers, you could change 7 to 4, 11 to 5, and 12 to 6. That way it would be no gap in the numbers, Huldra (talk) 20:16, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Tallinn high-speed tram maps

Article(s): User:Darkweasel94/Tram transport

Request
  • 1) Create all 3 files in OSM map service;
  • 2) Remove all of stitch-breaks and other problems from streets;
  • 3) Upload corrected maps and remove old versions.

Thanks for help! Dmitry G (talk) 12:55, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s)

@Dmitry G: The request is not clear. Are you asking for a raster map of the Tallinn tram routes using exported PNGs from OpenStreetMap (OSM)? The article you linked is a bot category that collects newly-uploaded tram-related media. I've added a few potential images to the gallery above. Cheers, Mliu92 (talk) 14:46, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

Primary files (File:Final USSR plan of tram routes in Tallinn.JPG and File:Tallinn tram routes planned in 1979.JPG) was removed, but the request still exist on this page. Request is not active since july 2017. I don't know why asministrators kept this request after original files have been deleted. Dmitry G (talk) 08:30, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

north polar azimuthal equidistant projection world map

  •  
    one of several files I intend to replace the map outline in

Article(s): en:flag of the United Nations

Request
Currently several files that include the UN emblem contain poorly autotraced outlines (even the meridians and parallels are mashed in!). I intend to fix this and have capable vector manipulation skills, but am pretty lost as far as cartography goes (I have QGIS but no idea how to use it to make a particular projection and no idea even where to get coast and lake outline data in the first place) so I thought I would ask you Wiki[carto]graphists! All I need is the appropriate vectors and then I can edit them into the various files. As far as specifications go, the official flag description in UN document A/107 (https://documents-dds-ny.un.org/doc/UNDOC/GEN/NL4/604/21/pdf/NL460421.pdf) is "A map of the world representing an azimuthal equidistant projection centred on the North Pole [...] The projection of the map extends to 60 degrees south latitude [...]" Thanks.
