When will you do Cuizhou map?--Kaiyr (talk) 16:42, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Location map China Foo

You have done well in your creation of administrative division maps, i.e. File:Taizhou_mcp.jpg, so I am wondering if you are able to create provincial maps like this: commons:File:China Inner Mongolia location map.svg. I have asked around, but with no response, and the last map was released more than 10 months ago—a great pity for this project. GotR ^Talk 22:12, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Baotou

Hi from Russian Wikipedia! I have a question for you. On your map of Baotou there exists "Binhe New District" (滨河新区). Unfortunately I cannot find any information about this district in chinese cources, even on the official site of Baotou goverment. Does it really exists? --Slb nsk (talk) 17:58, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hubei map glaring error

Hubei (Map 1)

Suizhou (Map 2)

Hello! I have no clue how to edit or create a map, but I feel something needs to be brought up:

Here's the Hubei administrative divisions map on the Hubei page (Map 1):

Here's the administrative divisions map of Suizhou (Map 2):

Area 8 on the Hubei map (Map 1) is Suizhou. If you look closely, you'll see that although Zengdu District (the pink area in Map 2) is definitely big enough that it could be included on the Hubei map, it was apparently omitted. I think it should be added.

Here's a map of Suizhou's Zengdu District: http://www.xzqh.org/html/show/hb/15443.html

Here's a map of Suizhou: http://www.xzqh.org/html/show/hb/27550.html

1) Can you help me fix this?

2) If you can't help me fix it, how should I go about learning how to fix it myself?

(I have already made a comment at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Maps, Talk:Hubei, and User talk:Neo-Jay.) Geographyinitiative (talk) 05:33, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

I tried to upload a changed map, failed twice. You can see my failed uploads at [1]. Geographyinitiative (talk) 10:46, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

Well apparently it took a while for the new image to register in the system. Now you can see it. I just added a line by hand in ms paint; poor quality compared to the master work that Maggern87 orginally created. Anyway, at least now you can see Zengdu District. Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:23, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

The boundary between Zengdu District and Sui County of Suizhou was established in late 2009; this was about the same time that the wikipedia map was made. Apparently the (excellent) map Magger made was already outdated before it was posted! Geographyinitiative (talk) 13:44, 12 April 2018 (UTC)
