Image's request under progression Request taken by Dragon401k (talk) 20:33, 21 May 2023 (UTC). I'm noticing a bunch of different issues with this map. I'll start with the smaller issues and move into the more fundamental.
First of all, it needs to be remade into a text-editable version-- one of the upload logs says "please don't use Inkscape to edit these files", but all the file versions, including the original, are Inkscape created. The basemap listed in the description also looks to be incorrect, as it's state-level, not county. File:Usa counties large.svg is the best basemap to use, as it's text-editable and county-level.
Secondly, it looks like File:School bullying laws in the United States.svg is identical in scope to this map, but sometimes edits aren't made to both versions. Seems like one of these maps should be superseded, as they both (aim to) show the same information.
Thirdly, there are some issues with the concept behind the map. This map aims to chart two different types of laws:
  • Laws prohibiting discrimination/bullying against LGBT students
  • Laws prohibiting LGBT-positive classroom instruction (also called "No promo homo" and "Don't say gay" laws).
I can understand why it would be helpful to view these two types of laws together, as they're closely related. But it leaves out another closely related type of law, which is laws that mandate LGBT-positive classroom instruction. [1] Of course, adding that category would make the map even more cluttered.
I propose splitting this into two maps: one that shows laws prohibiting LGBT discrimination/bullying in schools, and another that shows laws related to LGBT-positive curriculum (both prohibiting and mandating it). I think that could be accomplished by having File:School bullying laws in the United States.svg be the first map in question, and then creating a new file for the second map. File:No promo homo and school bullying laws in the United States.svg would be superseded by File:School bullying laws in the United States.svg.
Open to input from you, @La lopi, as well as others. I'll get started making the versions I proposed using the text-editable basemap, which would make it much easier to combine/dis-aggregate the maps based on what people have to say. Dragon401k (talk) 20:33, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
@Dragon401k Hi to tell you the truth I was actually thinking the same on the many issues you raised. Thank you for talking about it.La lopi (talk) 23:04, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
 Done @La lopi I've updated File:School bullying laws in the United States.svg to remove the curricular laws (shown in gallery). I tried to update the basemap to a text-editable version, but there was a rendering issue. There doesn't seem to be a good county-level basemap that includes territories and is text-editable, so I just left the basemap alone for now and updated it with Inkscape. I also created File:LGBT Curricular Laws in the United States.svg (shown in gallery) and added superseded templates directing users to the new maps on File:No promo homo and school bullying laws in the United States.svg. I may keep working on updating the basemap for File:LGBT Curricular Laws in the United States.svg, but it's satisfactory as is. Dragon401k (talk) 23:18, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
@Dragon401k Thanks for making the Map.La lopi (talk) 11:00, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
@Dragon401k Hi, i posted this map https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/File:LGBT_Curricular_Laws_in_the_United_States.svg on a couple pages and some guy removed it. By saying removed inaccurate map, no source provided on how Montana, Arizona, etc." prohibit LGBT inclusive instruction in the classroom". i will check the issue but can you also. Thanks.

This image seems WP:OR, and is made redundant by file:ItaliansInVenezuela.png and file:Porcentaje Italianos en Venezuela (2011).png.

Alright, could someone please modify the above file depicting the "Flag map of Rhodesia (1964–1968)", so that the flag properly "fills up" the whole map, in the same kind of way as the other two Rhodesian/Zimbabwean flag maps shown above?

Hi @Snow Lion Fenian, something like File:Flag map of Rhodesia (1964–1968).svg? – Isochrone (T) 20:47, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

@Snow Lion Fenian is the current rendition better? – Isochrone (T) 19:12, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
@Isochrone: That's great! Just one more thing... there appears to be a small piece missing out of the outline of Rhodesia on the current version of the map (visible to the upper-right of the Union Jack). Any chance that could be remedied? Sorry about this, and thanks again. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 22:33, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
This seems to be because the top right of the Union Jack is white; I can move up if you want? – Isochrone (T) 15:52, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
@Isochrone: Well, I was actually referring to the fact that there's a very small triangular-ish chunk missing from the northern border area of Rhodesia, possibly due to a glitch. If you copy and paste the image onto a black background, you'll see what I mean. Snow Lion Fenian (talk) 23:46, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

The Holocaust#Death toll (replacing the table)
Holocaust victims
Evidence and documentation for the Holocaust (replacing the existing map)
Request
I'd like to make a map based on Europe's 1939 borders (possibly with this map as a base) that portrays the absolute and relative Jewish population losses during the Holocaust. It would be similar to this one but include a bar graph for the absolute magnitude of losses. I would also like the map to portray migration of 300,000 Jews out of Europe from 1933–1941[11] with an arrow pointing west towards the Atlantic Ocean and another 1.8 million[12] with an arrow pointing east to Siberia from 1939–1941. The absolute and percentage deaths are listed in the table. Countries where the Holocaust did not occur—Switzerland, Turkey, Sweden, Iceland, the UK, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Libya,[13] Morocco,[13] and Tunisia[13]—should be in a different color (maybe gray)? Denmark,[1] Finland,[14] Albania,[15] Bulgaria,[16] (which had very low Holocaust-related deaths of the Jewish population within their prewar borders) should be entered as zero deaths and <2 percent losses. I expect the bar for Poland will have to be really long in order so that lower counts are still visible, but it's ok if Norway and Estonia don't show up.

This project is sadly beyond my mapmaking capabilities so I would appreciate any help. -- (t · c) buidhe 04:01, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

  • This could be a good use case for {{Graph:Map}}, which keeps the underlying data in wikitext and therefore makes it much easier to keep updated. Unfortunately, it relies on the graph extension, which is temporarily disabled. It also wouldn't accommodate the bar charts or the outward arrows, but I'd argue those aren't a great data visualisation choice anyway. The relative/absolute death tolls would be better presented as facets (i.e. two maps, or some sort of interactive toggle). – Joe (talk) 07:06, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
    For just displaying the death rate, I could make that map myself fairly easily—it's the other parts I'm not able to do. I can see that too much information on a map could be confusing, but I will see what anyone else has to say. (t · c) buidhe 16:56, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

@M.Bitton: Thanks for taking up my request! I've had a look on OpenRailwayMap and OpenStreetMap and yes, the Angers to Rennes line does have a turn/corner where it turns left to head to Rennes.

@M.Bitton: Apologies for the late reply - I've had a look and the map looks great, thank you so much for doing this! I think geographical accuracy is probably better for Wikipedia rather than the more inaccurate straight lines the low resolution map uses so I think it's better we keep it as is.

The name of the map could be titled as "ChatGPT availability by country or region".
Description could be "Countries, regions, and territories ChatGPT supports access from." Leesjy2k (talk) 02:37, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi i am just wondering could somebody update or make a new map on this. 1. Italy should now be in the Right-wing populists involved in the government (with the Brothers of Italy in governemnt plus Lega), 2. Sweden should be in Right-wing populists providing external support for government (Sweden Democrats) are helping the government, 3 Finland should be Right-wing populists involved in the government (Finns Party are in the government), 4 Estonia should go to Right-wing populists represented in the parliament as well as Slovenia and Romania. Thanks. La lopi (talk) 13:42, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

@La lopi  Done, but considering the ease of this request (you could use the paint bucket tool in Paint) and the number you have made, it may be beneficial to learn very basic graphics editing as the majority of your requests simply involve colouring in a blank map. – Isochrone (T) 14:14, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

They should be available from the sources above. Unfortunately you would only be able to use these in a GIS so it may be difficult if you don't understand. – Isochrone (T) 20:19, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
Yes, I know, am learning QGIS, that is not the issue. The links would be useful of I was looking for the shape of the Berlin Wall but it is about the allied sectors.--Antemister (talk) 20:30, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
@Antemister as mentioned in my first post, the data is in the browser console. I don't really know how I can send it to you. Maybe send an email via Special:EmailUser/Isochrone so I can reply if you are unable to access it? – Isochrone (T) 21:57, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

@Isochrone: Would you be able to do this request? It is okay if you don't want to. – Treetoes023 (talk) 01:24, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
Unfortunately I'm a tad busy lately so it may be a while before I'm able to work on this. – Isochrone (T) 07:56, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
@Isochrone: That's okay, you can take as long as you need, I'm in no rush. – Treetoes023 (talk) 16:01, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
I might have missed something, but may I ask what the problem with the current orthographic map is? – Isochrone (T) 19:17, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
@Isochrone: The map has places that are green that shouldn't be, such as Hawaii, Nunavut, and pieces of Greenland, as well as having places that are not shown that should be green because the islands are too small to appear because the map quality is low (also there is this random gray piece in Florida that should be green). The reason I requested you personally is because your maps are higher quality, so they show smaller islands and places with more accurate details. Also, the camera location should be adjusted slightly to be at the geographic center of Anglo-America. Overall, we could just use a new map instead of updating the old one, because even if we updated the map it would still be missing some small islands because of the low quality and not be centered right, which cannot be changed with updates because the whole map would have to be redone, leaving a map that has completely different source code and appearance. – Treetoes023 (talk) 21:38, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: Now that your back, do you think that you could do this request? It's okay if you don't want to or can't. – Treetoes023 (talk) 16:57, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
@Treetoes023: I can't promise anything as I'm in the middle of creating a map that I have been postponing for a while, but if I have time after that, I will look into it. That having been said, the issue of "quality" (meaning detailed) is a bit problematic for orthographic projections (they are not really meant for that and making them so comes a price in terms of size). Do you consider this map as being detailed enough? If not, is the orthographic projection necessary or are you open to something else? M.Bitton (talk) 22:00, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: Yeah that map is definitely detailed enough, I just needed at least one island from each of the tiny island countries to show up on the map for accuracy purposes. – Treetoes023 (talk) 22:30, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
@Treetoes023: in that case, why not simply reuse that map? I'm aware of the fact that you want the globe to be rotated, but I'm not sure that's a good idea given how small the islands are and the risk of them being overshadowed by Canada and the US. If that sounds good to you, you can have the map straight away, all I need is the usual (name, description, categories, structured data). M.Bitton (talk) 08:40, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: For now I think we should stick to the map originally requested, if it doesn't turn out well then I'll look into reusing the other map. – Treetoes023 (talk) 16:42, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
@Treetoes023: fair enough. If you have a location in mind that you want the projection to be centred on, please share it. M.Bitton (talk) 09:13, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: Just the geographic center of Anglo-America please. I found the geographic center myself, but I'm not sure if I did my math right, if the stuff you use to make your maps has an auto-center feature, where it automatically finds the geographic center and centers the projection there, you should definitely use that instead of my homemade coordinates. The coordinates I found are 35°50′30″N 112°17′30″W / 35.84167°N 112.29167°W / 35.84167; -112.29167, just in case you need them. – Treetoes023 (talk) 00:46, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: I don't mean to bother you, I know you're busy, but I was wondering if you were going to make the map because you never officially took the request. You don't have to make the map if you don't want to, and if you do take the request you don't need to make it right away. I just want to make sure everything is set. – Treetoes023 (talk) 18:04, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
@Treetoes023: I don't usually take the requests until I'm ready to start working on them (just in case someone else decides to have a go at them), but in this case I'll make an exception. M.Bitton (talk) 22:18, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: Oh okay, thank you. Just know, you can take as long as you want to start working on it. No rush! – Treetoes023 (talk) 23:03, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
  • @M.Bitton: You are and you aren't. I listed the Contiguous United States, Alaska, and the United States Virgin Islands as separate entities on the list so that whoever took the request wouldn't mistakenly add the entire United States, which includes places outside of the Americas. – Treetoes023 (talk) 19:56, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

 Done @Treetoes023: you may need to clear your browser's cache to see the change. M.Bitton (talk) 16:05, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
@M.Bitton: I hate to ask more of you, but I do have 2 adjustments (I promise they will be the last). There are these 3 islands between Ontario and Quebec that are colored green, but they should actually be gray because they are a part of the region of Nunavut (Canada has funky borders like that). The other adjustment I have isn't necessary, the longitude lines stop at this circle near the North Pole, could you remove the circle they disappear in and instead make the longitude lines intersect at the North Pole (like in this image for example)? If it is too much of a hassle to do then feel free to just leave the longitude lines as they are, this map has probably been enough work already. – Treetoes023 (talk) 17:09, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
@Treetoes023: all done. M.Bitton (talk) 18:50, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Age of consent
Request
Can someone please update the countries on this map? According to what is written in the article, Ages of consent in Africa, for example, (and on the map of the African continent on that page) there are multiple inaccuracies with the global map in so far as multiple African countries are given the wrong age colour. There may be other countries outside Africa that are also incorrect / out of date, but I'm not sure (information regarding other continents can be found on the following pages: Ages of consent in Asia, Ages of consent in Europe, Ages of consent in Oceania, Ages of consent in North America, and Ages of consent in South America). At the very least it would appear there are many countries in Africa that are incorrect / out of date. If the global map could please be fixed / updated that would very much be appreciated. Helper201 (talk) 16:34, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
I've also noticed an inaccuracy in that the Falkland Islands on the global map is coloured green for 18, when it should indicate the colour for 16, per what is stated on Ages of consent in South America#Falkland Islands (United Kingdom). So that needs correcting as well. Helper201 (talk) 16:48, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
