SVG locator maps of Mainland Southeast Asia and Maritime Southeast Asia in the gray and green globe scheme

{{stale}}

Article(s)
Mainland Southeast Asia
Maritime Southeast Asia
Request
Create SVG locator maps of Mainland Southeast Asia and Maritime Southeast Asia in the gray and green globe scheme. Mainland Southeast Asia is all of the land in Southeast Asia on the Asian continent. Maritime Southeast Asia is all of the land in Southeast Asia not on the Asian continent (all of the islands in Southeast Asia). In the map of Maritime Southeast Asia, do not include islands that are a part of Southeast Asian countries but are not in Southeast Asia geographically. An example of this is New Guinea and the islands in its immediate surroundings, part of New Guinea and some of the surrounding islands are owned by the Southeast Asian country Indonesia, but they are not considered to be a part of Southeast Asia geographically because they are a part of Oceania. Also, do include islands that are owned by non-Southeast Asian countries but are geographically a part of Maritime Southeast Asia, such as the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, and Christmas Island, which are all owned by the Oceanic country of Australia, but are geographically located in Maritime Southeast Asia. -- Treetoes023 (talk) 14:54, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

@M.Bitton: Could you do this request? As always, it's okay if you don't want to or can't, I know you are busy and you are under no obligation to do this request. – Treetoes023 (talk) 15:13, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

@M.Bitton Could you do this map since the image that needs to be adapted is yours? DREAMYTUKAM (talk) 05:42, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Why? M.Bitton (talk) 13:59, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
I apologize for the intrusion, but I must express admiration for the tidiness of your version, as such my OCD get better of me. DREAMYTUKAM (talk) 02:37, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
Thanks, but I'm still none the wiser as to why the map should be changed. M.Bitton (talk) 16:00, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

I need a new map from this 2017 IUCN assessment. Thanks 20 upper (talk) 15:47, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
@20 upper, do you want the striped region as well? Do you want graticules due to the extreme latitudes? – Isochrone (talk) 18:56, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
File:Monodon monoceros distribution map.svg here is a draft map I have made. – Isochrone (talk) 19:52, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Apologies, pinging Wolverine XI instead. – Isochrone (talk) 13:14, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
Isochrone Yes; I'd like the striped region, and thank you for your time. Wolverine XI (den🐾) 14:04, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
@Wolverine XI do you have a reliable source for the striped region, other than the unsourced map above? – Isochrone (talk) 19:34, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
@Isochrone: Never mind on that. Thanks a lot. Wolverine XI (talk to me) 22:36, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Spelling error in File:Italy_1870.svg

{{resolved}} Not sure where else to report this, but File:Italy_1870.svg (a Commons image) contains an obvious spelling error, "Kindgom of Italy" (rather than "Kingdom of Italy"). Should be an easy fix for someone with SVG expertise. --RFBailey (talk) 01:07, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

@RFBailey: you can easily fix it. Download the map and open it using a text editor. Search for "KINDGOM OF" and correct the typo. M.Bitton (talk) 01:41, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
 Done M.Bitton (talk) 01:48, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
Thanks -- and noted for future reference! --RFBailey (talk) 13:43, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Use this image to create an SVG locator map of Carpathian Ruthenia in the gray and green globe scheme. The map should use modern political borders and it should have an inset on Carpathian Ruthenia. -- Treetoes023 (talk) 15:04, 17 October 2023 (UTC)

@Isochrone: Would you be willing to do this request? The map would be identical to the map of Kurdistan that you made a while back, the only difference being the location depicted. – Treetoes023 (talk) 02:15, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
I feel that this would be better as a standard location map as oblasts, hydrography and relief are important features that cannot be depicted on an othographic map. – Isochrone (T) 08:48, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
@Isochrone: Could you do both? I think orthographic maps are always useful as they display a region in relation to the rest of the world, but you are right that there is a need for a map that displays things an orthographic map cannot. – Treetoes023 (talk) 11:14, 18 October 2023 (UTC)

Request to re-make File:Haudenosaunee_Territory.png

Historical vs. Current extent of the Haudenosaunee / Iroquois Confederacy

Historia Civillis' video thumbnail

Article(s)
Iroqouis
Request
Hey everyone. On the Iroquois article and several others throughout the other language wikipedias, this map is used to show the historical vs current territory of the tribes that make up the Haudenosaunee / Iroquois Confederacy in the U.S. and Canada. However, the scope of the map itself is far too broad, it makes it difficult to distinguish the pink (current) and purple (historical) territories in an infobox, and it includes too much geographic area that is irrelevant to the Haudenosaunee, like South America, the Pacific Ocean, the far North, etc. This is the only vector map of the Haudenosaunee I could find on the Commons, however, there aren't any reliable sources linked in its Commons page. Most maps online for Haudenosaunee or Iroquois show the territories of the five tribes strictly within New York State, however the most notable and complete map I can think of is the one used by Historia Civillis in his video on the Iroquois Confederacy (e.g. at 2:18). His map is almost certainly not free to use, but he did cite his sources for the video, and I'm sure they'd make good reads along the way. Thanks for the help. -- SpacePod9 (talk) 05:54, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
