- Fantastic, thank you! Um, since the map is in English, and attribution in the details, shouldn't the new name be in English? --Chris (クリス • フィッチュ) (talk) 12:49, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
- Feel free to rename, I don't usually pay a whole lot of attention to filenames. Kmusser (talk) 14:11, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

MapMaster's update
Article(s): Nueva Esparta
Request: I have translated this map using (Template:Translation possible). But I really need help with changing MAR CARIBE to CARIBBEAN SEA. The letters are made of nodes, and not text. Thanks in advance. The Illusional Ministry (talk) 23:44, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
- I tried, and i looked good in inkscape, but when i uploaded it a get a big blue block where the text is supposed to be. The Illusional Ministry (talk) 12:54, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): Remove them and put in new text. It's Times New Roman, all-caps, bold italic. You can leave the original text in while you put in new text to get an idea of the 'right' size. (But of course, any size goes, as long as it's readable yet subtle.) Classical geographer (talk) 09:08, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
- Did you get this fixed? Do you still need help?? MapMaster (talk) 03:22, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
- Still need help. P. S. Burton (talk) 21:36, 25 January 2010 (UTC) (new username).
I just uploaded a new version. I not only fixed the big blue text block, I also enlarged the Legend, inserted a new locator map of Venezuela, set the ocean color to the English Wikipedia standard, changed the dashed border to a line, and enlarged the names of the islands. I also pulled the title of the map and the little teeney coordinate numbers inside the map, where they belong. All of these edits, in my opinion at least, make the map a bit easier to read and understand. Hope you like them. MapMaster (talk) 15:01, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Large map creation/modification request

Article(s): To appear in Bavaria, Kansas; Bridgeport, Kansas; Falun, Kansas; Hedville, Kansas; Kipp, Kansas; and Mentor, Kansas
Request: Could someone add the towns listed in "articles:" above to the maps above, and create maps of the same style for each of those towns given this to locate the towns and [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] to shape the towns? I'm sorry this is such a large request, and it can be done in stages or broken into separate requests if necessary. Also, to give a sense of scale, the small red square (bottom-left most) highlighted red on the first map in the gallery is one mile by one mile. Major thanks in advance, and most likely a barnstar upon completion. Ks0stm (T•C•G) 23:13, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Graphist opinion(s): I notice the existing maps don't match their description either since they don't include the unincorporated communities. I'll see what I can do. Kmusser (talk) 15:29, 27 January 2010 (UTC) Based on the county map it looks like there ought to be a Glendale, KS as well. Kmusser (talk) 16:55, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

- Great job, thanks! Check your talk page, I left a reward. Ks0stm (T•C•G) 20:30, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
