Incorrect/missing colors of waterbodies
[edit]Article(s): en:Vironniemi
- Request
- The map above is just an example; there are probably 100+ of these maps with incorrect/missing waterbody colors on maps of Helsinki. File:Helsinki districts.svg is the base map file and has the correct coloring; please compare it to the image above. Those incorrect maps were made by User:Stadscykel who later fixed some of them (e.g. Special:Diff/43585007, Special:Diff/43585930), but most of those maps still have incorrect/missing colors. Related discussions on fi.wikipedia: link and link, and here on Commons: link. --JAAqqO (talk) 01:06, 31 December 2023 (UTC)

- Graphist opinion(s)
- JAAqqO, please check the sample you highlighted which I have uploaded a new version of. If correct, the good news is that it is easy to recreate each map from the base File:Helsinki districts.svg (of course, the bad news is there are 130). Chipmunkdavis (talk) 02:03, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- Chipmunkdavis, yes, that one looks good now, thank you. --JAAqqO (talk) 04:39, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- One of the discussions you linked mentions the colours are a poor choice for colour-blind users, may be worth considering that too before editing 130 files. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 02:07, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Map of the route from the Varangians to the Greeks
[edit]-
2023 image (Truso corrected, but quality degraded)
Article(s): en:Route from the Varangians to the Greeks
- Request
- I would like for the original image of 2017 (uploaded by Minnekon) to be restored, but with en:Truso in the correct place (namely on the right bank of the Vistula, as Artur Andrzej tried to move it in 2023). The issue with the 2023 correction is that the overall quality of the image has degraded. I tried to fix the problem myself by editing the 2017 original and moving Truso to the right bank in Microsoft Paint, but I got much the same result as Artur Andrzej in 2023. It probably has something to do with the .gif format that I do not understand. If anyone can make a higher-quality image in any other kind of format (like .svg), perhaps even with a different underlying map altogether, but showing much the same information, that would also be appreciated; I'm not tied to this image in particular. --Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 07:58, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Example of a map for the "State of Somaliland" (from the administrative point of view of the Somali authorities), which is not sufficiently country-centric.
Article(s): List of first-level administrative divisions by area (for example)
- Request
- Hello, having initially posted this request on the Commons:File requests page, it was suggested that I redirect here instead. Is it possible to create maps in the "SVG locator maps (location map scheme)" format for the States of Somalia? From what I see, this is one of the rare administrative subdivisions that does not yet have a map in this format. It would therefore be in addition to the regions of Somalia, which have their own category. --Ellicrum {bablute [...]} 13:24, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Europe FoP map
[edit]Article(s): w:en:Freedom of panorama (to replace Commons-slanted EU-FoP map in the article, which is supposed to be neutral (and not excessively favor Wikimedian perspective) per w:en:WP:NEUTRAL.)
- Request
- Change the color for both Belarus and Ukraine to yellow from red, as both have non-commercial FoP (yellow is for non-commercial FoP countries).
- Change also Sweden to light green as there is indeed FoP only for buildings, but no commercial FoP for monuments and public art.
- Add Kosovo, as dark green (yes FoP since October 2023).
- Add Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, and the Vatican City - as red.

- @Cmglee (note: the ping didn't work for some reason, but this page is on my watchlist as of now)
- It is based on the Commons perspective (in which non-commercial uses are treated as "not OK"). But since that article is in English Wikipedia, it should be neutral and should not favor on Wikimedia side. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 08:02, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- @JWilz12345: Got it. Did you mean "should not favor on Wikipedia side"? I think we should copy the code from File:Freedom_of_Panorama_in_Europe.svg and modify as needed to maintain consistency. cmɢʟee ⋅τaʟκ 08:33, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Cmglee ah yes, though for average readers, they always treat Wikipedia and Wikimedia as a single community. But that is another story.
- And yes, it is best to use the same map. I've read somewhere that the former version of File:Freedom_of_Panorama_in_Europe.svg was purportedly hard to edit, and I assume the NC map used the same mapping code. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

African history map of kingdoms and empires
[edit]-
Map of major African kingdoms and empires throughout history
Article(s): en:History of Africa, en:List of kingdoms in Africa throughout history
- Request
- Hi, I was wondering if anyone could put together a map of Africa overlayed with the maximum extent of some major kingdoms and empires. I can provide a list of kingdoms and empires that'll give a fair representation of the continent's history, although many of them might overlap so maybe have the fill transparent? At the moment we use File:African-civilizations-map-pre-colonial.svg which has extraordinary bias towards west and north Africa, and gets some of the territory wrong such as for Aksum and Hausa (which was never a kingdom). The map used would ideally include Arabia, the Levant, and some of Iberia as these were territories which were covered. The style I'm happy to leave to you, although I'd like it to be colourful. --Alexanderkowal (talk) 12:35, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Map of the Battle of Peregonovka
[edit]Article(s): Battle of Peregonovka
- Request
- Hi everyone. The article about the battle of Peregonovka needs a map depicting the battle. In Colin Darch's 2020 book Nestor Makhno and Rural Anarchism in Ukraine, 1917-1921, he includes a map by cartographer Jenny Sandler depicting the overall battle (Map 5.1 The Engagement at Peregonovka, September 1919), based on the White movement's own maps published in the 1960s. If someone here would be able to draw up a similar map, based on Sandler's work, that would be very much appreciated. Something similar to the Waterloo campaign or Battle of Stalingrad maps would be ideal. --Grnrchst (talk) 10:09, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

- I am short on time right now, but the map needs to be edited to mark the Russian occupied territories of Ukraine as disputed, perhaps with a grey/green stripe pattern. The grey colour may also need to be lightened to #C0C0C0. --Minoa (talk) 13:16, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- Request
- (1) The little orange and pink spots should be removed from the en:Yu'an, Lu'an map (File:ChinaLuanYuan.png) somehow. I don't have the appropriate computer program to do this. The original uploader told me concerning a request to correct the en:Jin'an, Lu'an map (File:ChinaLuanJinan.png), after I had already pointed out the problem with the en:Yu'an, Lu'an map: "No. Please, don't disturb me agaqin. I'm not working on request." at 19:38, 21 May 2022 (UTC)- Revision #657865447. Therefore, I bring my request here since I don't want to disturb the original uploader. (2) I don't know if there is any other problem with the map; I would appreciate any deeper analysis. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:08, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

- @PawełMM: Hey thank you for your help! I see you removed the orange spot. However, there is still some orange spots in the lake immediately south-south-west of the Yu'an area (in red). Also, on the far east of the map, there is a pink spot. Do you see them??? Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:37, 19 August 2024 (UTC) (Modified)
- Half done There are still problems with the new map. Using Microsoft Paint, I have created a new image that I added above showing (with MS paint-created circles) the additional aberrant spots on the map. All of these spots should not appear on the map, and I request someone remove them somehow. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 01:11, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Map for Passante ferroviario di Napoli
[edit]Request: It would be great if someone could create a map for this railway, similar to this one:
-
Passante ferroviario di Milano
You can find the route here starting from Villa Literno station to Gianturco Station. Chronologically the stations are:
- Villa Literno
- Giugliano-Qualiano
- Quarto di Marano
- Pozzuoli Solfatara
- Napoli Bagnoli-Agnano Terme
- Napoli Cavalleggeri d'Aosta
- Napoli Campi Flegrei
- Napoli Piazza Leopardi
- Napoli Mergellina
- Napoli Piazza Amedeo
- Napoli Montesanto
- Napoli Piazza Cavour
- Napoli Piazza Garibaldi
- Napoli Gianturco
The following map could help, but it does not include the stations beyond Pozzuoli Solfatara and includes the station Napoli San Giovanni Barra, which is not part of the "Passante ferrovario di Napoli." –Yeagvr (talk) 19:19, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Public transport map of Rio de Janeiro
Article(s): over a hundred pages as can be seen on the picture page, for instance pt:TransBrasil
- Request
- There are several inconsistencies on this map, since the last update is from 2018. I will list them below:
- VLT Carioca:
- line 1 has been expanded to the west, with a new station called "Terminal Intermodal Gentileza";
- the branch between Praia Formosa and São Diogo has been cancelled and should be removed;
- line 3 entered operation, I'll detail the new stations down below;
- BRT Transbrasil: has started operation, going all the way until Terminal Intermodal Gentileza. Please double check stations names as well as the path (the expansion towards downtown has been discarded);
- Other than that they've changed their logo, it'd be nice to update on the legend, check their website
- BRT Transoceânica: is currently in operation. Should be renamed to "BHLS Transoceânico" and has three different lines, that enter bus corridor between Charitas and their destination, and go towards Niterói downtown;
- Bonde de Santa Teresa: has been expanded, southwest until Dois Irmãos, a branch towards Monte Alegre and a small branch towards Muratori, are all operating;
- Ônibus expresso: all of them don't exist anymore and should be removed;
- Conexão BRT: BRT operator created three regular bus lines similar to previous Ônibus Expresso which could be interesting to show on the map. You can check their details on their website: https://mobi-rio.rio.br/
- MetrôRio: the two circles in Estácio station should be a single circle as it is a single station with integration between two lines.
- Teleféricos (cable cars): Alemão exists but is still suspended; Providência resumed operating; Rocinha never had a proper project (just politician intention) and therefore should be removed;
- Planos inclinados (funiculars): title is missing an "s"; P.I. do Condomínio Equitativa, P.I. Regina Coeli, P.I. do Cemitério São João Batista, Funicular Rio Arte and Monotrilho de Vila Santa Cecília are private and should be removed. All other are currently in operation.
- Double check all station names. I will do this homework and edit my comment.
- MetrôRio (subway) - they have added suffixes to stations located on neighborhoods with more than one station, indicating the neighborhood, as can be seen on their website. Therefore these stations should be renamed:
- Lines 1 / 4, from north to south:
- Uruguai should be "Uruguai / Tijuca"
- Saens Peña should be "Saens Peña / Tijuca"
- São Francisco Xavier should be "São Francisco Xavier / Tijuca"
- Afonso Pena should be "Afonso Pena / Tijuca"
- Central should be "Central do Brasil / Centro"
- Presidente Vargas should be "Saara / Presidente Vargas" (yes, this is an exception to the rule)
- Uruguaiana should be "Uruguaiana / Centro"
- Carioca should be "Carioca / Centro"
- Cinelândia should be "Cinelândia / Centro"
- Cardeal Arcoverde should be "Cardeal Arcoverde / Copacabana"
- Siqueira Campos should be "Siqueira Campos / Copacabana"
- Cantagalo should be "Cantagalo / Copacabana"
- General Osório should be "General Osório / Ipanema"
- Nossa Senhora da Paz should be "Nossa Senhora da Paz / Ipanema"
- Jardim de Alah should be "Jardim de Alah / Leblon"
- Jardim Oceânico should be "Jardim Oceânico / Barra da Tijuca"
- Line 2, from downtown towards northwest:
- Nova América / Del Castilho should be "Del Castilho"
- On Pavuna, only the subway station is called "Pavuna"; the SuperVia one is "Pavuna / São João de Meriti"
- Lines 1 / 4, from north to south:
- SuperVia, corrections on the lines, starting from downtown towards the suburbs, on counterclockwise fashion (for more information, check OSM or their website:
- Linha Deodoro / Santa Cruz:
- Mangueira should be "Mangueira / Jamelão"
- Silva Freire is only serviced on Linha Japeri, maybe we could duplicate the line between Deodoro and Central do Brasil to indicate that?
- Terminal Deodoro should be "Deodoro"
- Regarding "São José de Magalhães Bastos", only the BRT station has that name, the train station name is "Magalhães Bastos"
- Mocidade de Padre Miguel should be "Mocidade / Padre Miguel"
- Santissimo should be "Santíssimo" (note the "í")
- Benjamin do Monte should be "Benjamim do Monte" (note the "m")
- Serviço Circular Honório - Deodoro has been deactivated and should be removed from the map
- Linha Japeri:
- Riardo de Albuquerque should be "Ricardo de Albuquerque"
- Linha Belford Roxo:
- Cavalcante should be "Cavalcanti"
- Pavuna should be "Pavuna / São João de Meriti"
- Linha Saracuruna:
- Bonsucesso TIM should be "Bonsucesso"
- Saracuna should be "Saracuruna"
- Linha Vila Inhomirim:
- (all correct)
- Linha Guapimirim:
- missing stop "Santa Dalila" between Parque Estrela and Suruí
- missing stop "Santa Guilhermina" between Suruí and Iriri
- Parada Capim should be "Jardim Guapimirim"
- Linha Deodoro / Santa Cruz:
- VLT Carioca
- As mentioned above, there is a new branch from Rodoviária to the west, with a new final stop called "Terminal Intermodal Gentileza"
- The branch from Praia Formosa to São Diogo has been cancelled and should be removed.
- For more details, check OSM as well as their website.
- Stop names corrections, on clockwise fashion:
- Line 1
- José Bonifácio stop was never constructed and should be removed
- Cidade do Samba should be "Cidade do Samba Tia Ciata"
- Parada dos Navios should be "Parada dos Navios Valongo"
- Antônio Carlos should be "Antônio Carlos MAM"
- Line 2
- Praça XV should be relocated closer to the water, next to the ferry station
- Rio Branco should be "Colombo"
- Praça Tiradentes should be "Tiradentes"
- Itamaraty has been moved to a different position, southwest of the letter "I" on the map (check OSM for proper position); it's name is "Cristiano Ottoni Pequena África"
- Central do Brasil should be "Central" (only for VLT / tramway);
- Line 3 has started operation, names corrections:
- Santa Rita should be "Santa Rita Pretos Novos"
- Camerino should be "Camerino Rosas Negras"
- Itamaraty has been replaced, as mentioned above.
- Line 1
- BRT, always from south to north, from east to west (their website for more information):
- Transoeste
- Cittá América should be "Bosque de Marapendi"
- Porto dos Cabritos should be "Paulo Malta Rezende"
- Freeway should be "Afrânio Costa"
- Riveira should be "Riviera"
- Pontões/BarraSul should be "Pontões/Barra Sul"
- Recreio/Salvador Allende should be separated. The station along the Transoeste line (on the east-west axis) is "Salvador Allende"
- Glaucio Gil should be "Gláucio Gil"
- Benvindo Novaes should be "Benvindo de Novaes"
- Gramado (close to Campo Grande) has been removed.
- Transcarioca
- Rio II should be "Rio 2"
- Pedro Correia should be "Pedro Corrêa"
- Fundão should be removed, it is duplicated with "Terminal Fundão / Aroldo Melodia" (the latter is in correct position)
- Transolímpica
- As mentioned above, "Recreio / Salvador Allende" should be separated; the circle below is "Terminal Recreio"
- Catedral de Recreio should be "Catedral do Recreio"
- Padre João Chribbin should be "Padre João Cribbin (Marechal Mallet)"
- Transbrasil
- To start with, the line starts in "Terminal Intermodal Gentileza" so stations Candelária, Presidente Vargas, Sambódromo, Cidade Nova, Leopoldina and Gasômetro should be removed. Other than that, most stations have different names:
- Cajú / São Francisco should be "Vasco da Gama"
- Parque Vitória should be "Benfica"
- Joana Nascimento should be "Hospital de Bonsucesso / CPOR"
- Nova Holanda should be "Baixa do Sapateiro"
- Darci Vargas should be "Rubens Vaz"
- Ramos should be "Piscinão de Ramos"
- Escola da Marinha Mercante should be "Marinha Mercante"
- Escola da Marinha do Brasil should be "Lobo Júnior"
- Brás de Pina should be "Mercado São Sebastião"
- the point with no name before Ponto Chique needs to be removed
- Ponto Chique should be "Cidade Alta"
- the BRT point next to train station Parada de Lucas needs to be removed
- Isidro Rocha / Correia Andrade should be "Vigário Geral / Praça Dois"
- Manguinhos should be removed
- Irajá / Ceasa should be "Irajá"
- Coelho Neto should be "Fazenda Botafogo"
- Barros Filho should be removed
- Carrefour / Guadalupe should be "Jardim Guadalupe"
- missing one more stop, "Guadalupe" before Terminal Deodoro
- Other than that, next to Transbrasil, there are two bus terminals under construction that you might want to include: "Terminal Missões" (next to Cidade Alta station) and "Terminal Margaridas" (between Vigário Geral / Praça Dois and Irajá).
- And the Conexão BRT bus lines, the stops have names and it would be very nice to include them as well. However they were not included on OSM yet and therefore for a non-local would be hard to get stop positions; this could be added on a second moment.
- Transoeste
- BHLS Transoceânico
- There are three lines, all of them start on downtown on "Terminal Rodoviário João Goulart", go on regular bus stops and enter the BHLS corridor that currently exists. I think it'd be good to include the path towards downtown, as well as the path to the neighborhoods outside of the bus corridor, but without including the regular bus stops, only the BHLS corridor stops. You can check routes on OSM:
- Monsenhor Jacarandá should be "Cafubá"
- (current) Cafubá should be "Lagoa de Piratininga"
- Roma should be "Piratininga"
- Cornelio de Mello Jr should be "Maralegre"
- Multicenter has been dropped and should be removed
- Madri should be "Santo Antônio"
- Juriti should be "Vila São Pedro"
- São Fabio should be "Morro da Peça"
- Sibipurunas should be removed
- Avenida Central should be "Praça Central"
- Celso Peçanha should be "Boa Vista"
- MetrôRio (subway) - they have added suffixes to stations located on neighborhoods with more than one station, indicating the neighborhood, as can be seen on their website. Therefore these stations should be renamed:

The map of the Nguyễn Dynasty during the year Bảo Đại 12 (1937).
Article(s): [[]]
- Request
Another user ("Quangkhanhhuynh") alerted me to some errors with the above map and I would like to request a number of changes to this map based on this file in the National Library of France:
For one, the Province of Hà Nam (河南) and the Province of Phúc Yên (福安) are missing from this map. That is, they are missing from the current map at the Wikimedia Commons but are depicted on the Gallica map dated 1937.
Another mistake I made at the map is listing most of the Province of Đồng Nai Thượng (同狔上) as the Province of Đà Lạt (多樂), in reality the vast majority of the area depicted as "Đà Lạt (多樂)" on the map is actually "Đồng Nai Thượng (同狔上)". Meanwhile, the city of Đà Lạt (多樂) and some surrounding areas were a separate area as can be found on the Gallica map.
Additionally, the Province of Pleiku (坡離俱) did not yet exist in the year of 1937 and should be completely removed with its territory going to the Province of Kon Tum (崑嵩).
Furthermore, I made the following mistakes in taking the names from the French administration rather than that of the Southern Dynasty:

The Province of Pleiku (坡離俱) did exist in 1937 and the Gallica map didn't list it.

Goran tek-en, yes, this is correct, though I still think that maybe the display issue in your Google Drive files may be due to your device and not due to the font. Could you upload your 2nd (second) draft to the file page and then revert it? Because I suspect that it might just be an issue with your device and not with the map itself. Otherwise just use tje font you've used,
I think that the map is mostly done, other than the fact that one district is missing from one province as Khanh pointed out above.

- Addendum, there is a stray "Đà" in the middle of the "East Sea" (South China Sea) in the "FONT TEST" map, it can be found below the big Chinese island 🏝️. -- Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:53, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

- @Quangkhanhhuynh: , any comments on the above mentioned "FONT TEST" file? I don't know what kind of device and / or browser you use or if there are still any errata that need fixing. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 12:55, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung now I’m using my mom’s phone (iPhone 8+, while mine is Samsung Galaxy A03) and the file looks fine, it also has the fine “Kạn”. Of course I saw the “Đà” floating on the sea. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 13:17, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung @Quangkhanhhuynh I have now changed the font for all Chinese text. To me it looks like this font is more elegant but also a bit thinner and extended. I have increased all the Chinese texts a bit to compensate for that, please check so it's legible.
- Also check the new border of Laos, but if this is correct now, that would mean that the three or so sources we started with was wrong, is that so?

- @Goran tek-en why parts of Lai Châu and Lào Cai belong to Laos? Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 13:51, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- You need to explain things very clearly, user "Goran tek-en" isn't familiar with the map of Viet-Nam as we are, so they might misinterpret information that isn't clear and properly given. We should communicate with them in easy to understand terms as they don't know what the "Mường Lát District" is or where it is, we should use visual examples that are easy to understand. They are an excellent WikiCartographer, not a Viet-Nam cartography expert. -- Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:54, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung Yep, I think I didn’t give him a clear information, sorry for that. For @Goran tek-en, you just need to change the border the same as this map, old maps just help for provincial divisions. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 14:07, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Quangkhanhhuynh You can't be as wide as that, you show me a map with many many borders, so which part should I change to what, I have no idea, look below at my question. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 14:16, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en the outside border, don’t draw the small, inside the nude color please. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 14:20, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

- The borders of Annam and Tonkin were identical to those found on modern Vietnamese maps, see here, the province Khanh referred to above was Thanh Hóa. -- Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:51, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung Thanks for the clarification.
- So Thanh Hóa should be a numbered part of the reddish and the numbered legend to the right? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 14:13, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en Thanh Hoá is the first from top to bottom in the yellow part. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 14:22, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Quangkhanhhuynh Yes, and what shall I do with it? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 14:35, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en you make it has a tiny land point into Laos, and also for Nghệ An (the land right below Thanh Hóa) you make the west a little sharp just like the map I provided to you. These two look a little bit too round. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 14:48, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- And you need to restore the changes of the map in the third edition. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 14:57, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Quangkhanhhuynh It's always difficult to use several map sources as most maps has another proportion, angel, level of details and so on. When we started this we didn't use the Vietname location map you linked to so I had to twist it a bit to fit for that area.
- Before I did any changes
- After the changes, is this correct? --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:14, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Goran tek-en I forgot that the map I provided is stretched by 104 %. Anyway the changes look good! Thanks for your help. Overall the map is great now. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 04:57, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- I also agree that it's great now, as far as I know, all errors have been resolved. 😃👍🏻 User "Goran tek-en" is an amazing cartographer and should be appreciated for all of their efforts. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 09:03, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

- So many changes, so I want both of you to check all of this map Draft Dynasti-4. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 17:03, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

Seriously both of you @Donald Trung @Quangkhanhhuynh, keep your discussion somewhere else, this is a graphic map request nothing else. If you add discussion text here I don't know what is for me and I don't read your internal stuff, it's totally confusing for me.
- So shall I upload as Draft Dynasti-4. or not? Nothing else, Y/N and if N exactly what to edit. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 12:09, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Goran tek-en, Yes, it looks good to me. 👍🏻 — Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 13:26, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, me too. Khanh ( talk | contribs | CA | vi ) 14:07, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung @Quangkhanhhuynh
- New version uploaded, information also updated.
- If you are happy with this please put the code
"{{section re.solved|1=~~~~}}"
(without the ".") on this request so it can be archived, thanks. Done
- If you ever need edits on stuff I made you can just contact me directly as I have more material than the uploaded file so it's easier for me to edit than for someone else. Also if any of you think I can help you with something just ping me, thanks. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 15:14, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- If the uploaded file "Draft Dynasti-4."? Because in the 4th (fourth) draft I don't see the floating "沱", but I do see it in the current uploaded file, maybe you accidentally uploaded "Draft-Dynasti-3". -- Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 15:57, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung It's really strange, I can't see it in my original file and not if I download the uploaded svg, completely sick.
- But I think I found in another way although I can't see it, looks fine now, sorry my bad. --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 16:20, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- It's fine now. Thank you for all your hard work. 😃👍🏻 Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 16:23, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Donald Trung If this is finished, please, as the requester, put out the code
"{{section re.solved|1=~~~~}}"
(without the ".") on this request so it can be archived, thanks --please ping me-- Goran tek-en (talk) 13:55, 28 October 2024 (UTC)- I placed it at the top of the section, some people prefer to see it at the top rather than the bottom, when I added it to the bottom at "Commons:Graphic Lab/Illustration workshop", some editors would remove it and then place a new one at the top. Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:12, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

- I also prefer it at the bottom, the people who like it at the top seen to do a lot of "cleaning" (removing templates and information) when they move them. Anyhow, it will be archived after a few days. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 14:47, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
