Maps of the Principality of Monaco
[edit]- Request
- All maps of the Principality of Monaco should now feature the new Mareterra district, built on the sea and opened to the public in December 2024. --InfattiVedeteCheViDice (talk) 08:52, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

I used an online tool to crop but I could not figure out how to save it as svg
Article(s): en:List of ecoregions in Turkey and others
- Request
- I looked in “Category:Biome maps” but I could not find anything. I would like to add the names of the biomes so they can be translated.
Could you possibly update per [1][2]? --Chidgk1 (talk) 11:12, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- Chidgk1, please take a look. I got the names of the biomes directly from the source SVG (I also tried your links, but they were confusing and didn't seem to align exactly with the source details). If you would like me to make any other changes, just let me know exactly what you need. Or if you're happy with the result, let me know too. LápizRoto (talk) 06:35, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- @LápizRoto Sorry for extremely late reply - for some reason I only just noticed you had done this. Thank you very much. I especially like the well-placed legend box.
- I see that @Terpsichores created Western palearctic biomes.svg in 2012 based on WWF data. I understand that WWF later passed the responsibility for maintaining such data to One Earth hence my links. So I think the reason for the non-alignment you mention is that the biomes have been updated since 2012. For our map to be up to date, if possible I would like the One Earth maps to be used and cited as our source not WWF.
- Also the One Earth maps look better as they have fewer lines. Would it be possible for you to update per One Earth? If you need me to contact them via https://www.oneearth.org/contactus/ please let me know. Chidgk1 (talk) 07:07, 11 September 2025 (UTC)

Map is unmaintainable by editors who might wish to correct details
[edit]Article(s): wikipedia:en:Law#Legal_systems
- Request
- Are there any frameworks or tools that could replace this file with a version that maintains the high graphical quality of the original, but permits granular editing (for example of facts like changing political boundaries, or developments in the subject matter, or corrections resulting from sourcing errors)? TheFeds 21:56, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
- Graphist opinion(s)
- @TheFeds: Not sure what you mean? Are you struggling with editing SVG files, in such case you can use Inkscape. BorysMapping (talk) 10:15, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
- My concept was that this map had been created with a tool or framework of some sort, which queried and generated the political boundaries, the table and graph styles, etc., and allowed the user to not resort to manually drawing vectors in Inkscape. Without the practical ability to correct small errors, the images will gradually become less usable in Wikipedia articles, and might have to be editorially omitted or couched with limiting statements. TheFeds 20:27, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
- @TheFeds I have downloaded, open and edited both files and there is not any difficulties with that;
- svg file with Inkscape, as was mentioned before
- png file with Gimp
- the svg file as to be uploaded by a autoconfirmed user, or you can ask at Commons:Village_pump
- If this is not what you mean you have to explain in another way. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:10, 21 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en: I was attempting to use this as example to ask a broader question about how to keep maps with legends up to date, without having to raster edit a PNG, or use the SVG that appears to be an incomplete copy. I was hoping that someone had found or made a tool that takes scripted input like some form of markup, and lets a modified derivative version be made without necessarily being an accomplished image editor. As the image gets older, present reality may diverge from what is depicted, and (mainly) Wikipedia editors will have to decide whether to live with a 95% correct image in the article, or remove the image because it is 5% incorrect. If things like the base map (e.g. for boundaries and projection), colours, labels, overlays, etc. were in conveniently structured layers that could be individually edited, that might make such a task easier. I know that in an SVG editor, the individual path entities are editable, but this is both difficult and complicated for the average user. Maybe @Goldsztern (the SVG image's creator) was attempting a preliminary version of this, by creating a native vector version (they cited the base map and the data sources) that could at least be edited carefully in the future. I was hoping there might be a more advanced version somewhere that allowed a user without technical skill or a lot of time to see which fact corresponded to which vector object, and to change the characteristics. TheFeds 07:07, 22 December 2025 (UTC)
- @TheFeds Thanks for explaining.
- If we had a perfect world and everyone did everything in exact the same way maybe, maybe this would be possible. But here at commons (wikimedia) with so many different people involved I say, no way.
- It's messy and we will always be behind with edits just like all books, educations etc are. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:20, 22 December 2025 (UTC)

- @Debray05
- Suggestions:
- You could put that information in the different maps Information part and write which, because maybe they are included so that people will easier locate the routes.
- If you want some cities removed you will have to provide which cities in which map so the graphic worker will know (probably the graphic worker will have no knowledge of this, this is your field of interest/knowledge) and then they can be uploaded as new versions and not overwrite the current ones.
- --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 14:05, 30 March 2025 (UTC)
- Hello Goran, nice to meet you.
- Sorry for just reading your comment.
- Perfect! I have left the message in each discussion in the “Information” section of each image.
- I understand that you have used current cities as a guide, but the truth is that during Columbus' voyages, those cities did not exist.
- Instead, there were pre-Columbian cities, which I have indicated in each message so that when a designer decides to help us with the adjustment, they can use them as a guide.
- Thank you very much. Debray05 (talk) 16:58, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
- @Debray05 Please always ping me.
- I'm sorry I should have checked the files more closely before. They have different languages translated within the code of the file. This can be a useful thing sometimes but it also complicates things, and it doesn't work so great sometimes.
- I do not use the translation tool myself [translation tool for the first image) and I don't have any good knowledge about it.
- So this makes everything more complicated and I do not have the knowledge to work with this, so I will not be able to help you with this, sorry. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:45, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

Cannabis maps
[edit]Article(s): en:Legality of cannabis, en:Cannabis in the Czech Republic
- Request
Can someone please change the Czech Republic to orange on the first map (File:Map-of-world-cannabis-laws.svg) and green on the second (File:Legality of Cannabis in Europe.svg)? Cannabis is not currently legal in the Czech Republic but is decriminalised. It won't be legalised until 1 January 2026, then it can be changed to blue, but it shouldn't be blue on either map now. Helper201 (talk) 12:33, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
- You left this message on my talk page, and I explained that both maps display laws that haven't yet come into effect. The same was done with previous jurisdictions and is consistent with other cannabis-themed maps such as those of the United States. --Ratherous (talk) 22:44, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
- And as I explained, consistency does not make anything correct. The map is displaying wrong information. That is factually correct to say. It doesn't matter how many times you do something wrong; it will always be wrong. Neither this map nor any other should be displaying information that is not currently factually correct. How is a Wikipedia reader (i.e. a non-editor) supposed to know which laws are current and which are future looking at these maps? They can't. Therefore, I posted here because you seemed unwilling to make this change and we seemed to be at an impasse. Helper201 (talk) 16:42, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- If you would like to change the policy the maps follow you would have to have a discussion regarding doing so for both of those maps, not unilaterally demand someone makes changes for you. Also the Wikipedia articles do indeed expand on dates the laws come into effect, so the readers do very much have access to this information. Not to mention, one of the maps is literally a map I created and uploaded. --Ratherous (talk) 17:03, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
- And where has such a "policy" been formed in the first place and where would it be changed? I have "demanded" nothing, I made a request. I don't see anywhere on these maps where it states that the legalisation for the Czech Republic hasn't actually happened yet. Finally, you might like to read en:WP:OWN.
- Also, Mexico is flat-out wrong. Cannabis is decriminalised in Mexico, not legalised. Helper201 (talk) 04:02, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
- There has been a consistent pattern not only with this map, but as I mentioned previously, with other cannabis-themed maps from other regions with numerous precedents from previous jurisdictions legalizing the substance. Again, this is not exclusive to cannabis-themed maps, but also certain other legal visualizations, an example of which I have previously provided for you. I hope you realize Wikipedia and Commons are different projects and en:WP:OWN differs from COM:OWN. I don't think me inviting you to engage in a discussion over this issue in any way exhibits over-possessiveness over my upload in a manner that is contrary to COM:OWN. All files on Commons have talk pages, similarly to WP articles, which would, of course, be the appropriate location for a discussion. Your comment regarding Mexico would likewise be appropriate on the map's talk page - considering you provide sources and clearly back-up your claim, someone is very likely to respond either in favour or in opposition relative to the provided arguments. As you said yourself, "Therefore, I posted here because you seemed unwilling to make this change and we seemed to be at an impasse." Once you received push-back regarding your request on one user's talk page, your immediate reaction was to repeat your request elsewhere rather than opt for a wider discussion on the map's talk page - I'm not sure how not to perceive that as a demand over all else. Being at an "impasse" over content-related issues would be an appropriate point to start a wider discussion on both WP and on Commons. --Ratherous (talk) 01:27, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Age of majority
[edit]Article(s): en:Age of majority
- Request
- Some of the colours used for the ages on this map are too similar to each other and could cause problems for people with colour-blindness and other sight related issues. Specifically, the ages for 15/16 and 21 are very similar (seem to both be shades of orange) and the ages of 19 and 20 are also very similar in that they are both shades of blue. I would propose more distinct colour differences and would recommend changing the age of 21 to black and 20 to red. Helper201 (talk) 23:27, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
Request taken by cmglee – Agreed that the colours should be updated. Having brownish colours for both lowest and highest values may confuse readers. Additionally, as the map is mostly green, that colour's saturation can be decreased. However, the map is used on many articles and updating legends will need much work. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 15:21, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Recoloured and legend added - @Helper201: Is this better?
cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 14:30, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
- @Cmglee: its definetly better. However, I think it needs at least one change. <16 is very vague (could be anything from 0 to 15) and there is only one country among these that sets an age lower than 16 that I could find and that's Indonesia. I'd recommend setting a new colour for 15 and marking this in the key to be clearer and then "<16" in the key can be simple changed to "16". Maybe use black for 15 and "LightSlateGray" for 16? Helper201 (talk) 17:43, 1 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Helper201: It is no vaguer than the original, which states "age 16 or younger". Nevertheless, if it is indeed true that only Indonesia is lower than 16, I'll make the change. Can someone please confirm?
- Thanks, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 19:24, 1 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Cmglee: my apologies, I didn't mean to say that you made it worse, just that it could be made better than it was in the first place (i.e. before it was changed) by being less vague. Regarding Indonesia being the only country under 16, see here. Helper201 (talk) 19:38, 1 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Helper201: No worries, and thanks for clarifying.
- Delving deeper into the question, 2001:1970:56df:7d00:d09e:3d3:80f8:7257 (talk · contribs) removed Yemen from the age-15 category in this edit. The previous reference is now invalid.
- http://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/age-of-majority-by-country still states that it's 15 but cites Wikipedia. Would you be able to find an authoritative source for Yemen, please?
- Thanks, cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 12:01, 2 September 2025 (UTC)
- P.S. The article cites a "Constitution ot the Yemeni Republic" which states "3 - Age of Majority: eighteen full calendar years." http://natlex.ilo.org/dyn/natlex2/natlex2/files/download/83560/YEM83560.pdf concurs, so I've moved Yemen to age 18.
- Re colours, I made age 15 black and age 16 dark blue so that the colours get darker away from 18. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 12:16, 2 September 2025 (UTC)
- @Cmglee: my apologies, I didn't mean to say that you made it worse, just that it could be made better than it was in the first place (i.e. before it was changed) by being less vague. Regarding Indonesia being the only country under 16, see here. Helper201 (talk) 19:38, 1 September 2025 (UTC)

- Please fix the colour shading of the en:Crimea part. Since the map's inception, it's in the shade given to Russia, but that's politically wrong. Virtually no state body outside of Russia's supporters recognise en:Crimea as legitimate part of Russia, despite its annexion claims. It must be in the shade given to en:Ukraine. Thanks! Regards, Grand-Duc (talk) 05:23, 9 October 2025 (UTC)

- @Grand-Duc: But this map has nothing to do with politics to my understanding.

Confusing map
[edit]-
Distribution map of Budgerigar
Article(s): Category:Melopsittacus undulatus (distribution maps) and elsewhere
- Request
- The dark blue (indicating the temperate zone) is much too dark, making it look like the main objective of the map (i.e., where Budgerigars occur), rather than just another climate zone. Please make it a much paler shade, comparable to the other climate zones in colour intensity (I don't have svg-editing software so can't do this myself). I'd suggest #80eecc for the new colour. Once done, I'll undertake to edit the keys on all the wikipedia pages the map is used on to clarify the new colour. - MPF (talk) 16:17, 19 October 2025 (UTC)

- I updated the SVG image. You may have to flush some browser caches to see it. Thank you for suggesting a specific color, and one that doesn't look like it is trying to indicate water. – b_jonas 11:01, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

- Those drafts are PNG versions of the original SVG file I'm working in and will upload to commons.
- Those drafts are shown for proofreading only.
- ----
- The two sources has very different background maps but now (in my drafts) they are the same.
- Check so I got it right and this is as you want, thanks.
- Not all the islands are in both source versions but I have kept them so you should especially check if I got them right.
- --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:59, 20 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Yes, it is correct. The only thing that needs to be changed (which was also incorrect in the original file) is that Syria does not have an embassy in Italy, but a Consulate General; whereas it is correct that Italy has an embassy in Damascus. Yeagvr (talk) 16:46, 20 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Yeagvr Sorry but I don't understand what to change, remember I have zero knowledge, I copy from one image to another.
- Tell me what map to change, what country to change, from which color to which new one.
- --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:23, 21 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en No worries—let me clarify. In the file you uploaded as Draft of Syria-1, Italy should not be shown in blue, but in a light blue, the same color used for Turkey. This is because blue represents Syrian embassies worldwide, whereas light blue represents consulates general. Yeagvr (talk) 13:14, 21 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Yeagvr Draft of Syria-2, are they both correct now? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 14:34, 21 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Yes. Yeagvr (talk) 17:22, 21 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Yeagvr Now you can find them here file:Diplomatic missions of Syria-SVG.svg, file:Map of diplomatic missions in Syria-SVG.svg.
- Please check all the information, also links for wikipedia, wikidata and structured data.
- If you are happy with this please put the code

@Goran tek-en Just a small fix: you left Sicily colored blue; since it is obviously part of Italy, it should be light blue like the rest of Italy. Anyways, thanks a lot. —Yeagvr (talk) 17:13, 22 December 2025 (UTC)

Corrections in SVG map
[edit]- Request
Hi! With a group of users at eswiki and enwiki, we're developing a Lua module for creating colored maps (see w:Plantilla:Map, w:Module:Map and w:Module:Map/world for the data). The module is just starting but it's already finding its way into real articles. We originally imported the SVG data from https://simplemaps.com/resources/svg-world (license). However, we recently found some errors with the SVG data and would appreciate it if someone more acquainted with maps and SVGs could help us fix them!
- Galápagos Islands are missing
- Western Sahara is being invaded by Morocco!
Thanks! Sophivorus (talk) 11:33, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
- @Sophivorus What I can see there is no link to the svg you are talking about so it's hard to see what should be edited. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 11:09, 9 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Hi, thanks for taking a look! The "paths" of the SVG can be found at (the bottom of) w:Module:Map/world (the final SVG is generated programmatically by Module:Map). If you're not familiar with SVG markup and you'd rather deal with a normal SVG file, you can find it at https://simplemaps.com/resources/svg-world Let me know if this helps!

- @Sophivorus: What do you mean by "Western Sahara is being invaded by Morocco", tell me what to edit how.
- @Goran tek-en I mean that, if you look at Western Sahara, its territory is greatly reduced, replaced by an expanded Morocco. Sophivorus (talk) 11:54, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Sophivorus Which group id do you want Galápagos to be under, like for Sweden you have <g id="SE"> --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:10, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Can you put it under the Ecuador (EC) group? Thanks! Sophivorus (talk) 13:06, 11 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Sophivorus
- I have really tried my best and checked both the "paths" and the "svg file".
- "svg file" do have the islands so someone has lost them.
- As soon as I open any of those and save as Inkscape or plain svg stuff in the code is added/edited compared to your "paths" code. So what I have done finally; is the changes you asked for, removed everything else from the file, saved it as plain svg, then removed Inkscape code in text editor, saved as text.
- There is something strange from some file because I have put the islands in EC but that has "class="Cape Verde"" on it.
- What I think you have to do (you or someone else knows better probably) is download the txt file I share, take out the specific code you need from my edits and paste in your "path" code in the right place. Replace Marocco, Western Sahara, Ecuador.
- Edited text
- I hope that will work, let me know, otherwise get back to me.
- --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 18:19, 11 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Hi, sorry for the delay! As you suggested, I analized the file you shared, took out the paths, replaced them for the ones we had, cleaned up the numbers a bit, and voilà! The frontiers for Morocco and Western Sahara are fixed now (see here), thanks so much! However, regarding Galápagos, I think there must have been a mixup somewhere. I tried the paths tagged "Cape Verde" and verified that indeed, those paths correspond to the Cape Verde islands, not Galapagos. Perhaps you left the Galapagos paths somewhere and exported the Cape Verde ones instead? Thanks again for the amazing work so far, cheers! Sophivorus (talk) 13:09, 17 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Sophivorus My bad, I mixed up the two group of islands, sorry.
- This should be the correct ones, I hope.
- Let me know, thanks.

- @Goran tek-en Hi, sorry for the delay! As you suggested, I analized the file you shared, took out the paths, replaced them for the ones we had, cleaned up the numbers a bit, and voilà! The frontiers for Morocco and Western Sahara are fixed now (see here), thanks so much! However, regarding Galápagos, I think there must have been a mixup somewhere. I tried the paths tagged "Cape Verde" and verified that indeed, those paths correspond to the Cape Verde islands, not Galapagos. Perhaps you left the Galapagos paths somewhere and exported the Cape Verde ones instead? Thanks again for the amazing work so far, cheers! Sophivorus (talk) 13:09, 17 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Can you put it under the Ecuador (EC) group? Thanks! Sophivorus (talk) 13:06, 11 December 2025 (UTC)

- Request
- Can the aforementionned maps be updated to properly reflect the boundary of Wendake, the indigenous reserve/municipality?
- The boundary hasn't changed since the maps were made. The maps were never accurate since their inception.
- A good portion of the maps are based off of File:Localisation de la ville de Québec.svg
- I have contacted the original authors, and either have gotten no response or have been referred to here.
- The other parts of the map should stay the same
- I know that this a big request, please do let me know if it should be split. I thought it would be simpler to request them all in one shot.
- Thank you very much to the person that will pick this up! --Wolfy13399 (talk) 01:33, 26 November 2025 (UTC)
- @Wolfy13399 To start with, it would be great if you provided what the correct boundary looks like, we don't know, we are graphic workers. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 11:03, 9 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en
- This is what the boundary should look like

- Notice how there is 2 disjoint parts, and the map images only contain the one
- The proper boundary is shown in the infobox when looking at the category Category:Wendake on Commons in the slippy map
- OSM relation: https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/7701011
- There is the open data containing all the administrative boundaries in the province (including relevant boundaries): https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/decoupages-administratifs Wolfy13399 (talk) 14:15, 9 December 2025 (UTC)

Request taken by --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:52, 9 December 2025 (UTC)- It is not that straight forward editing those (svg) as this one anyway, Localisation de la ville de Québec is probably created from download of OSM, or similar.
- But check that file and see if that is what you want. If so I can work on this a little now and then, it's a lot. Let me know if this image Localisation de la ville de Québec is fine. You might have to ctrl+reload the page to see the new version. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:52, 9 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en That looks good to me. Take your time, no pressure :)

- File:Carte des arrondissements et quartiers de Québec.svg It seems that you missed the inner part, section of Quebec City within the enclave in this image Wolfy13399 (talk) 17:36, 12 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Wolfy13399 It's there but the thickness of the lines make it look like it's just white. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:54, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

File:South Korea Postcode Map.svg transparency flattening request
[edit]-
The file
Article(s): en:Postal codes in South Korea, ko:대한민국의 우편번호, ko:국가기초구역번호
- Request
- Hello! This file was originally a 'fake vector' file embedding a raster image. When vectorization was performed, the MediaWiki extension failed to render it properly and caused a 429 error. So I reverted it to the 'false vector' version. The true vector version, dated at 14:26, 29 November 2025, used multiple layers and transparent filters for coloring, I guess that's why the rendering has failed. Could someone please flatten the transparency (convert transparent overlaps into solid colors) and clean up the file so it renders correctly? I tried to do it myself but failed. Thanks!--起司狗 (talk) 07:44, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Request: File:State positions Iraq war.svg Please correct the missing content in this map.
[edit]-
I found that there were some missing in this map. Six countries including Luxembourg, the Republic of Ireland, Cyprus, Armenia, Burma and Cambodia, together with Germany, France, Greece, Russia, China, Vietnam and other countries, opposing the Iraq War. I suggest changing the colors of the six countries including Luxembourg, the Republic of Ireland, Cyprus, Armenia, Burma and Cambodia to the same blue color as those of Germany, France, Greece, Russia, China and Vietnam. At the same time, Ukraine should be changed to gray, and the Solomon Islands and Rwanda should be changed to yellow like Japan. Other contents remain unchanged.

Six countries including Luxembourg, the Republic of Ireland, Cyprus, Armenia, Burma and Cambodia, together with Greece, France, Greece, Russia, China, Vietnam and other countries, opposing the Iraq War. I suggest changing the colors of the six countries including Luxembourg, the Republic of Ireland, Cyprus, Armenia, Burma and Cambodia to the same blue color as those of Germany, France, Greece, Russia, China and Vietnam. Thanks. At the same time, Ukraine should be changed to gray, and the Solomon Islands and Rwanda should be changed to yellow like Japan. Other contents remain unchanged. --Boston Mayflower (talk) 07:41, 7 December 2025 (UTC)
Fair use / fair dealing laws map

Map of fair use and fair dealing laws

- Change the color of the Philippines to dark green just like the US. The Philippines doesn't adhere to fair dealing system but to fair use system. See this for the evidence. One of the cited sources of the map (here) explicitly marks the Philippines as a fair use regime, not a fair dealing regime. --JWilz12345 (Talk|Contributions) 05:52, 9 December 2025 (UTC)

Freedom of Panorama Europe map

- Request
- Needs updates:
- 1) Kosovo needs to be included, colored the same as Serbia (dark green) since there is commercial-type FoP in that limited-recognition country since 2023.
- 2) Ukraine and Belarus - both change to yellow since there is non-commercial FoP both
- 3) Andorra, Monaco, and San Marino - all must be marked with red dots (no FoP)
