Delete since it is not much more than a WP:DICDIR. A redirect to maps might be an alternative. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 02:33, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep If this is a sourceable term for the obviously common practice of outline-only maps, then I see no reason to delete it. Andy Dingley (talk) 02:52, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- outline maps are sometimes called base maps, too. Uncle G (talk) 20:29, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as a pointless and overkill fork of map. I will also support a redirect to map. -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 20:50, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete/subsume into map. It's doubtful that sufficient can be said of this subject to warrant its own article, so should be within the "Map types and projections" of the map article, with redirect. Possible that "outline map" is a more commonly used term than "blank map". PaleCloudedWhite (talk) 22:02, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
