File:Temp anomalies 2000yrs pages2k-en.svg

Hello

unfortunately I can't find an explanation for the different curves (only shortcuts inside graphics) in the Description. Would it be possible to add s.th. what shortcuts for curves mean? Thanks Jschreiber (talk) 18:01, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello @JSchreiber: I've added more details to the description at File:Temp anomalies 2000yrs pages2k-en.svg. In addition to the supplementary information and the open access paper on the Pages2k Proxy Database, the Pages2k paper by Neukom et al. itself, upon which the graph is based, can be read for free online at researchgate. Hope this helps? --DeWikiMan (talk) 19:50, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

I mistakenly assumed that you constructed the graph by your onw as I did for my uploads in "Holocen"/""Holozän". Thus You cannot answer if - as I assume - the strait line is not measured but a gues by the authors.HJJHolm (talk) 07:59, 17 May 2021 (UTC) Thus, if it is a copy from the book, it is under copyright and you have to ask the authors. If it is your own work based on data from the book, it should be ok. But you have to tell!!!HJHolm (talk) 09:19, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Hello! I see you've made File:Climate-tipping-points-en.svg. Really great to have such a map on Wikipedia! Would it be possible to make it more readable? Specifically, increase the font a bit, and change the colours of the darkest tipping points a bit, mostly Greenland? Femke (talk) 16:17, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Sure. I hope I will find time to make a stab at it this week. --DeWikiMan (talk) 18:34, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! Femke (talk) 12:31, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

I started out with the German version, because there are only a couple of links to it. For comparison the English version below. What do you think, any suggestions how to further improve readability? --DeWikiMan (talk) 19:19, 20 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks a lot!

Definitely an improvement, but still not readable in many standard Wikipedia article sizes. A few more suggestions:

• You could consider dropping the ozone tipping point (per an "updated" or new image in this 2019 Lenton paper). I'd never heard of it before, not sure how much this is still discussed in the literature.
• You could cut off a bit of the Pacific Ocean, to scale up the entire figure. So that the edge becomes vertical rather than rounded
• The West Antarctic Eisschildes still has too dark a background to be readable on my screen. Can that be made more similar to Greenland? Femke (talk) 16:16, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your good suggestions. WAIS and clipping the Pacific done. Yes, I haven't heard anything about an Ozone Hole Tipping Point either, except in the original Lenton paper. I'm not sure if I want to leave it out, though, because it might violate en:WP:NOR. The Lenton 2019 paper seems specifically to be about interactions of tipping points and not meant to be an „update“ of his original paper. Other tipping points are left out in the 2019 paper as well, presumably because there is no interaction? I think, leaving out the Ozone hole tipping point just to make the map more readable would be kind of arbitrary. --DeWikiMan (talk) 19:48, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

Changes applied to English version. --DeWikiMan (talk) 15:09, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

Congratulations for your successful nomination of en:Tipping Points, Femke, good job! I wasn't aware of the nomination and didn't expect that there could be some kind of time limit – so I let pass some time to give you a chance to react and comment. Also the upload of a version by Chiswick Chap perplexed me. I'd appreciated if you had let me known. Cheers, --DeWikiMan (talk) 15:26, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

Sorry I completely forgot. There was no time limit, as figures are not part of the GA assessment criteria. Femke (talk) 15:30, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
