Make the small islands on map more visible

-
Map showing example with different zones
-
Map showing international waters in dark blue and exclusive economic zone in light blue
-
ie: the map that needs correcting/editing/etc (obvious!)
-
base map that could be used in making the requested map
Article(s): United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories#Completely autonomous dependencies
Request: (Concerns improvement of the 3rd map.) Many of the concerned territories consist only of some small islands. The information in this map is color-coded and the small area of the islands makes it hard to actually see, which territories are colored blue and which red (even in this view and when enlarging the view, I think the important information isn't visible very well). Could someone maybe surround the smaller islands with a lighter tone of the respective color, so that there will be larger, lightly colored areas? This could be done by highlighting the territorial waters or exclusive economic zones (see first and second image). -- Toshio Yamaguchi 14:35, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Article(s): Peacekeeping
Request: It would be nice to update those 2008 maps (yes, both, confusing, isn't it)? There is a bunch of nicer, more informative maps on the web, with legends that also give information about mission timeframe, size, and name. See [1], [2], [3] (bottom of the article), [4], [5] or [6]. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 22:00, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

- Thanks. It's up to date, but still less informative then most of the maps I have linked. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 00:26, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
- I think the map's just too crowded for adding labels to be particularly effective. ResMar 16:24, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Request for district map of Tripura

District Map of Tripura
Article(s): Tripura, List of districts of Tripura
Request: The district map of the Indian state of Tripura is available at File:Tripura map.png. However, in 2012, the numbers of districts was increased to eight from four. So, we are in need of a new district map. The new district map can be sourced from this website which is the website of Tripura Industrial Development Corporation. Thanks a lot for the help.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:33, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Fishing Creek (North Branch Susquehanna River)

Article(s): Fishing Creek (North Branch Susquehanna River)
Request: To assist a fellow Wikipedian in their quest to produce a GA article for the above, I produced this push-pin locator map so that the article had some form of map. I am now feeling a bit guilty about how poor it looks, and I feel that I should humbly request a better one for their article. Something similar to the Susquehanna map, would be ideal Jokulhlaup (talk) 17:47, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
