[edit]

hi Kwamikagami, I just reverted the edits in this map which left previously Bolivia out (though it's true that there are some ambiguities in the process), but Aruba and Curaçao in. I reverted out of mistake the Tabasco edit as well, and I would also like to add Yucatán (legalised in 2022). But I don't know how to edit maps, could you help, please? After all, it's a map of your own creation. Marcgsch (talk) 20:59, 3 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

could you list the precise changes you want, and evidence for bolivia, since cyanmax rm'd it for lack of evidence?
a large map like this - almost 2 mb - is usually produced in inkscape, which you can download for free. more manual sizes are achieved by editing them as text files. that takes a while to figure out, but i'm sure there are tutorials online. Kwamikagami (talk) 21:51, 3 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
Just to add Yucatán and Tabasco. I had been researching Bolivia around and hour ago and it turns out it's in kind of a limbo. Legal according to some interpretations, illegal according to others (I've been looking into Bolivian newspapers in Spanish, and to government sources from 2022). Wikipedia itself also categories it as unregulated, at least Spanish Wikipedia, which is unlike anywhere else in the world, I think. You could paint it striped or with a question mark, as you prefer, since I was mistaken and shouldn't be in full colour. Aruba and Curaçao must remain uncoloured.

Abortion Mexico 2025-05-07.

[edit]

I have added two dates (date effective) to the timeline schedule on the main article: Campeche and Yucatán (published today).

I'm working on a new map with the different grounds of legal abortion in Mexico after the 12/13 weeks threshold. But as you mentioned, it should be ready when all the states have finally modified their laws (so, still work in progress). Just a quick note: when I was doing the research on each of the updated penal codes, I noticed three states in Mexico has now the socioeconomic ground: Michoacán, Yucatán and Campeche (new). But that's something to address in the future.

Tamaulipas could be the next (some noise from there recently). But I will notify later if something happens. Aleqc (talk) 22:00, 7 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Abortion Tabasco

[edit]

The reform was finally published on May 17: https://publicacionperiodico.tabasco.gob.mx/documento/6998/firmado_qr.pdf

Elective abortion was decriminalised in Tabasco. Aleqc (talk) 01:07, 24 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Francophone world map - Sahel countries

[edit]

Noticed you reverted the map edit changing Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso from "States where French is an official or administrative language" to "States where it is a culturally important language". You're right that the three have maintained French as a "working language" in their constitutions, but the language of these policy changes is clearly designed to demote French into a sub-official role, while continuing to offer some state services and international communications in the language. I'd argue the situation is more similar to Algeria ("culturally important language" with continued use in government and elements of society) vs somewhere like Cameroon or French Guiana ("official/administrative language"), and putting the Sahel states in the latter group masks this point. It's worth noting Niger has also included English as a "working language"--but I don't think we'd mark it as an "official or administrative language" on an equivalent map.

i think if the government operates in french, then by definition it's an administrative language. sure, it's been demoted, but it hasn't been relegated to the sphere of cultural activities.
if major government functions in Niger are conducted in english, then indeed we should list it.
french Guiana is france, so that's kinda beside the point. Kwamikagami (talk) 21:51, 27 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
[edit]

Hello @Kwamikagami,

Could you please edit these maps by updating Oklahoma since the legislature recently enacted a bill to raise the age of consent from 16 to 18 through House Bill 1003 since I have no clue how to?

Thank you!
