I tried to get this to work for some time but had no luck. The relation in question is here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/19476256 and the article in question is The Stourbridge Line (note the commented code right in the infobox).

@Nguyenduong2601 are the boundaries just those of Sudan and South Sudan merged? Do you want this to be overlaid on a contemporary or historical map? – Isochrone (talk) 13:52, 13 October 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

The colours seem arbitrary. Might it be better to put them in spectral order or similar? I know this is in the original file. cmɢʟee τaʟκ (please add {{ping|cmglee}} to your reply) 23:20, 19 October 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

@Cmglee I don't have any particular issues with using any color over other. But, as long as the old map is updated I am fine with it. Greatder (talk) 04:24, 22 October 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Hello, I need to redraw a diagram of the ancient Egyptian expeditions to Sinai for copper and turquoise from page 84 and connect with dotted lines along the route:

• 1. One route apparently began in the north-east Delta, possibly from Pi-Ramesses or Tjaru (whence one expedition leader originated), and headed southward to the Gulf of Suez. A variant of this route may have traversed the Wadi Tumilat (East Delta) and turned south along the Isthmus of Suez, which contained a Second Intermediate Period settlement at Tell el-Maskhuta,52 a New Kingdom settlement and Ramesside fort at Tell er-Retabeh,53 a Ramesside fortified shrine at Gebel Abu Hassa (containing inscribed jars, texts, and stelae of Sety I and Ramesses II),54 a stela of Ramesses II erected at Gebel Mourr, and a Ramesside fort at Kom el-Qolzoum (Port Suez).55 The small shrine at Gebel Abu Hassa has yielded a small stela fragment mentioning the goddess Hathor, mistress of the turquoise, attesting to this way-station's role in the passage of expeditions to South Sinai.
• 2. Abdel-Raziq quite plausibly suggests that another route to South Sinai departe the Memphite region and used eastern desert wells (e.g. Bir Qana) to sustain exp along the route to el-Ein el-Sukhna. This destination lay 10 km south of an anch at Bir Odeib56 beside the Red Sea at the northern end of the Gulf of Suez. El-Ba and Abdel-Raziq recorded eight Middle Kingdom rock-cut inscriptions at el- Sukhna,57 some of which attest to copper and turquoise mining expeditions reach region en route to South Sinai. The preceding three routes appear to originate f contemporary royal residence (Itj-tawy in the Twelfth Dynasty; Pi-Ramesse Ramesside Period) and reached the northern end of the Gulf of Suez.
• 3. A fourth overland and maritime route to South Sinai very likely began from th residence at Thebes or Memphis, and crossed the Eastern Desert from the envir Beni Suef in Middle Egypt. This route traversed Wadi Araba, passing a shrin Ramesses II at Wadi Sannur and a New Kingdom copper mine and camp near Bir Bikheit and Bir Thimeil.59 The Red Sea terminus of this route probably lay at Mersa Thelemet60 opposite el-Markha Plain, which accessed the turquoise (and copper) mining region.
• 4. An examination of survey maps and the region along the West Sinai foothills, from Port Suez to el-Markha Plain, reveals a north-south line of fourteen oases, springs, wells, and basins (Table 1; fig. 1).67 Most of these water sources could easily have provided the daily water requirements for overland expeditions in the winter and to a lesser extent in the summer. The first well, Ayun Musa,68 which lies to the south-east of a Ramesside fort at Kom el-Qolzoum (Port Suez), contains archaeological remains, including an ushabti fragment and a late Roman to Coptic Period settlement.69 The second well, Bir Abu Qitifa, is very salty, and could not have supplied drinking water.70 The eighth water source, Wadi Gharandal, contains a small stream and many trees, furnishing an ideal watering place and camp site, and has yielded archaeological remains from the Roman Peri

On the article for the Antilles, the Lucayan Archipelago is highlighted in the map as it is a map for the West Indies. Could a seperate map with the Lucayan Archipelago be made to actually represent the Antilles as the current map is borderline misinformation. Also, I am reviewing the map and noticed that the Leeward Antilles is not included in the current map. Both maps probably should have it. ✶Quxyz✶ (talk) 13:42, 2 November 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

The current map of MST counties in ND is awkward because it doesn't show the rest of the state at all; if you don't know the geography well at all, you won't know if they're farther west or east, and even if you know this, you won't know if they're farther north or south. Could you take the typical locator map and highlight the MST counties with the same colouration? This way we'd get the whole state, so it's easy to see where in the state the MST counties are found. -- Nyttend (talk) 18:58, 13 November 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

The current map of visa requirements for South Sudanese citizens indicates that visas are required for the U.S., however since it was created, travel was banned by the U.S. government. This indicates that the U.S. should be coloured black rather than the current gray, as is done in the map for Israeli citizens for countries they are refused travel to. I have included both for reference.

A map of the British Isles with the locations of all settlements, villages, towns etc. named after wolves, be they in English, Scots, Gaelic, Irish or Welsh. The names of the localities are listed here: Place-Name Evidence for the Former Distribution and Status of Wolves...in Britain. As to where they are located exactly, that will require someone with a greater knowledge of British/Irish geography than I to work out. I know this will be hard work, so anyone willing to take this on will have my sincerest thanks. Mariomassone (talk) 11:46, 18 November 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Could you remove the big square and replace it with a circle around each of the isolated locations where this species lives? (Right now it's hard to distinguish most of the locations from dust spots on my screen.) I believe it's fine to overwrite the existing map with the new, since it's just an improvement rather than a major change. Most of the other projects don't have captions for the map, and (based on Google Translate) all that have captions say simple things like "Distribution map", so there aren't any references to the square itself that would be confused by an overwrite.
