Oppose With no names, I don't see this has adding any value.Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:25, 12 February 2022 (UTC)- @Charlesjsharp and Sca: I have created Alt 1 which is 4x as large and has labels --Guerillero Parlez Moi 20:01, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- Much better, though you'll need to tidy it up to improve quality and make it more cartographic. Also, there are some unmarked red bits. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:41, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- That is just the way the DC road network works. The state avenues have a bad habit of randomly starting and stopping. Maryland Avenue is 8 non-contiguous pieces Guerillero Parlez Moi 21:16, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Charlesjsharp: I fixed some of the lables -- Guerillero Parlez Moi 22:14, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose – Per Charles. – Sca (talk) 13:26, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- Comment – Just my opinion (it's very subjective): The area outside D.C. is bright, and it pops like an unfinished canvas. How about de-emphasizing it by using a milder tone there. Maybe c6c5c3, abb2ab, a4aaa4, etc. or anything to make the D.C. area pop over the surroundings. Bammesk (talk) 16:35, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Bammesk See Alt 1 -- Guerillero Parlez Moi 18:07, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Support Alt 1 – Bammesk (talk) 19:16, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Alt1 – Sorry, but the map legend with street names doesn't really solve the problem. – Sca (talk) 13:29, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Some of the streets are less than half a kilometer in length. There isn't a way to label them short of increasing the size another time; we are already at 5k pixels a side. Opposes need to be actionable --Guerillero Parlez Moi 14:14, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose DC's shape is cut off. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 03:14, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Support either Not perfect, but it's a difficult subject to display and these maps have a high encyclopedic value. (t · c) buidhe 14:53, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
