I used my perlshaper script to generate a map centred on Panama with the member states as the subject:

$ sudo cpanm Geo::ShapeFile

$ wget "http://www.naturalearthdata.com/http//www.naturalearthdata.com/download/10m/cultural/ne_10m_admin_0_countries.zip"

$ unzip ne_10m_admin_0_countries.zip

Aegean Sea

Request

please remove watermark credits top right… -- Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 13:25, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s)

This Artist signature was added by the creator of the work. As the map is an artistic work (and doesn't match the map colour conventions), I see no benefit in removing this watermark from the image, particularly when a map using conventional colours like this one (already used on the Aegean Sea article) is available. gringer (talk) 11:52, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Chhattisgarh and India to start

Request

I hope this is the right place for this request. A large number of Indian maps on Wikipedia show an incorrect border between the states of Andhra Pradesh (numbered 1 in the third map), Telangana (numbered 29 in the third map) and Chhattisgarh (numbered 5 in the third map). The easternmost part of Telangana (Khammam district) is shown as bordering Odisha (numbered 20 in the third map) along with Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. However, Survey of India, Google Maps and Open Street Maps unanimously agree that the easternmost part of Telangana only borders Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Further, there is also a border shared between the states of Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, which is not seen in the maps above. I think this error is a result of the maps becoming outdated after Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation (Amendment) Act, 2014 transferred some parts of Khammam district to Andhra Pradesh. The issue seems to be quite widespread and I haven't yet seen a map on Wikipedia that matches the border shown in other sources. If the first two maps are fixed, I think it'd be easy to propagate changes to other maps. I have added the third map to the request as it is widely used across multiple Wikipedias. —Gazoth (talk) 08:40, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Foreign relations of Armenia

Request

Hello, I have been unable to update a map on my own and came across this service for help. The map can be found under the "Countries with diplomatic relations" section of the page "Foreign relations of Armenia". The map is quite outdated. Several new countries have established diplomatic relations with Armenia but this is not reflected on the map. For example, Kenya, Uganda, Angola, Swaziland, Myanmar (Burma), Niger, Bahamas, Micronesia, Central African Republic, Liberia, Nauru, Palau, Bhutan, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Saint Kitts and Nevis, and Sierra Leone should all be colored green as these countries have established diplomatic relations with Armenia. I have used sources from the United Nations and directly from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia web page under "Bilateral Relations". Any assistance in updating this map would be highly appreciated. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by JJ 25 (talk • contribs) 19:30, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
