I am just wondering can somebody make a Map of US states with the Uncommitted vote in [[2024 Democratic Party presidential primaries]]. The higher the % number the darker the color of the state would be. Here are the numbers.

: The article [[Leagues Cup]], a soccer tournament in North America, has [[Leagues_Cup#Format|a section on its format]]. I need help with displaying the locations of the teams from each organization into one single labeled map of all teams from Mexico ([[Liga MX teams]] shown at bottom), Canada, and the US (both countries' [[MLS teams]] shown at top). This format would have MLS team location dots in blue and Liga MX teams in green. This map doesn't have to have individual states shaded (as the one in MLS). I am hoping that an editor may help me with creating one, or if possible, may please create one for me. Here are the maps in question that are to be used for reference:
: Hi. Please make "Qandahār" the easternmost boundary of the "Safavid Empire" (yellow), and give the area directly to the east of it the same brown-ish (earthern) color as we can see in other major parts of the map. In other words, there must be a brown-colored territory between Kandahar, and the green territory (Sur Empire). All areas to the north of Qandahār (e.g. everthing surrounding "Ghazni" and "Kabul", and to the north of both) have to be colored with the same brown-ish shade as well.

:Would a map like on this page [[2024–25 UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup]] be good? Viewers can [ ] enlarge the map to fullscreen mode and zoom in, show nearby articles.
'''Test 1''': Using template ''MLS labeled map'' and location map Mexico.<br>
Results:
* MLS is not in needed map coords: lookup coords stadiums in format 49.276667|-123.111944|[[Vancouver Whitecaps FC]]
* MEX map example is not in stadium, zoom in to see difference, lookup coords stadiums too.
* The old maps don't use any logo of the clubs. I'd suggest adding them to the labels: click on pins to see them. Click enlarge map to zoom/pan/check all the details. Reload to refresh map. San Jose = big logo 200px, the rest in 50px version.
Any ideas about what should be included in the descriptions?

::If I understand the legend correctly, the current coloring indicates that no right-wing populists are in the national legislature; it seems to indicate that the R-W P presence is only in a subnational legislature, which in this case is Wales. Is UKIP in the Welsh Assembly or anywhere else? If they're nowhere at all, of course the coloring can be removed. [[User:Nyttend|Nyttend]] ([[User talk:Nyttend|talk]]) 23:13, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
:::It seems to be that the legend is wrong. For example, Netherlands, France, Belgium are all the same color as the United Kingdom, but all those three currently have right-wing populists in their national legislature. Also, right-wing populists are in regional legislatures in Germany, which is shaded grey. It seems that the darkest blue indicates they lead the government (Hungary, Poland), the slightly lighter shade indicates they are in government but not leading the government (Greece, Slovakia, Finland) and the lightest shade indicates presence in national legislature. UKIP has no presence in the British national legislature, but still does have presence in the Welsh Assembly.--[[User:Jay942942|Jay942942]] ([[User talk:Jay942942|talk]]) 13:03, 21 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm requesting a map of the former local government areas in the [[Auckland Region]] based on a map contained in this source: [https://www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/UnitaryPlanDocuments/pc7-02807-franklin-county-council-chambers.pdf] (page 30) [[User:Traumnovelle|Traumnovelle]] ([[User talk:Traumnovelle|talk]]) 07:24, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
== Location Map Onondaga County, New York ==
:@[[User:Traumnovelle|Traumnovelle]], did you try to find a digital version of the map yourself? If so, which sources did you already check?
I'm looking how to create a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Location_map location map] for Onondaga County like this one [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Location_map_San_Diego_County,_California this one] for San Diego County.
:I've searched a bit more info, but I'm not familiar with NZ sources and border changes, so I hope that others can take the job on. I've made maps in the old days with paper and a lightbox, and not every drawer was as precise, so the old map might contain a few faults as well. A good "1967-borders-alike" source would save a lot of drawing time.
:* Maybe https://www.stats.govt.nz/ does have downloadable maps and data, maybe there are more suitable govt.nz sources;
:* Perhaps there's a special add-on tool available for QGIS like PDOK for the Netherlands.
:Here are a few maps on Commons. Some borders are recognisable, but many have changed, like the south part of the Auckland region: The old map also stretches onto a piece of current Waikato + Hauraki (gather those sources if you use modern maps to reproduce the old).

::You mean a digital version of a map of counties and boroughs of the Auckland region? That is probably the best image of them I can find. The maps you've provided show completely different boundaries to the old local government areas which haven't existed since 1989. I didn't suggest a specific map of Auckland because I don't see one on Commons best suited for the task: [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:NZ-Auckland_plain_map.png] would be best if higher resolution but the low resolution may cause issues with drawing boundaries.
::The old map probably isn't perfect but the only other material are physical maps and maps of the specific borough e.g.: [https://kura.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/digital/collection/maps/id/555/rec/7] are mostly undigitised, even if they all were it'd be an incredibly tedious task although I am happy to provide as many of these individual maps as I can find if one were to seriously want to try and get the borders as precise as that. [[User:Traumnovelle|Traumnovelle]] ([[User talk:Traumnovelle|talk]]) 18:56, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
:::Thanks for the feedback. The detailed maps are indeed a bit too much for this request. They might be an interesting input for the [https://www.openhistoricalmap.org/#map=9/-36.6265/174.4684&layers=O&date=1967-06-09&daterange=1824-01-01,2024-12-31 Historical OSM project]. It's good to know we're talking about pre 1989 boundaries. It might give a lead. There must be enough GIS shapefiles to choose from as a base map. [[User:Groetjes, Peter|Groetjes, Peter]] ([[User talk:Groetjes, Peter|talk]]) 22:48, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
::::I don't know what a GIS shapefile is or where to begin with digital cartography. I don't mind attempting it myself, I just don't believe I have the technical ability to do so. [[User:Traumnovelle|Traumnovelle]] ([[User talk:Traumnovelle|talk]]) 22:56, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
:::::Don't hold yourself back by thinking it is as difficult as it used to be. These programs are really getting easier to use. For instance, the free program I use, [[QGIS]], has its own installation and (try yourself/follow along) user training manuals on docs.qgis.org. That means you can make simple files yourself today. I've used a bunch of tutorials on YouTube, particularly to learn things that looked very difficult, but turned out to be simple by following the lead.
:::::QGIS is a great addition to [[GIMP]], [[Inkscape]] and [[Scribus]] (free alternatives to Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign). You can for instance make a map in QGIS and then export it to Inkscape to make it look better. Shapefiles connect dots, just like a vector program like Inkscape does. You can start to learn Inkscape skills for instance through ''Logos by Nick'' on YT, by just spending 5 to 30 minutes a day. By taking little steps, you can progress into other free programs like QGIS, and if you still enjoy the process, end up using [[Blender (software)|Blender]] for 3D animation and films.
:::::A GIS works with coordinate-related data: points, lines, polygons = shapes. When you define a point/line/shape, you can add data to them. It's like making an Excel-table or cascading style sheet.css stick to a drawing. Save the map you've made and it creates a set of different files: data-base-files.dbf, project.prj, shapes.shp and a few others. You can easily download loads of data from reliable sources, like the LINZ Data Importer for NZ government data. A lot of shapes have already been traced by others, so you can simply load them in and use them and already available data to make presentations.
:::::I tried to see whether I could quickly make a background map, that you might use in inkscape. It's easier to drag and drop an image in Inkscape, scale it (locked dimensions) down to a size you want, and then start retracing the lines. The New Zealand sources of satellite images, shape files etcetera are available, but you have to ask for a set of different access keys to a few government information providers. Downloading a satellite map went very fast, but for shapes and such I'll have to ask a key. I'll look into that this weekend.

: Hi. Please remove all green areas in "Circassia" and "Gudjistan", '''except for the coastal areas''', and change them into the color orange. Also, "Dagestan", as well as anything to the east and south of "Kabardia", as well as Central and Eastern Georgia need to be colored orange. In short words; the ''only'' thing that should remain green in <u>that area</u> (aka Caucasus), is the coastal area of Gurdjistan/Georgia, the coastal area of Circassia, and of course Kabardia needs to remain within that type of red/green shading.

::[[File:Slavonia01.png|thumb]]This map is similar to the map of the [[Kingdom of Slavonia]] to the right, which has the same C.M.F. indication, and a long list of referenced sources in its description. It seems like the borders didn't change a lot in the range of a few centuries. Can you link to reliable sources that prove the above map should indeed be altered?

:I guess you're referring to [[w:File:Ph fil laguna.png|File:Ph fil laguna.png]]? See, the thing about that map is that it details ''municipalities and cities'', not ''legislative districts''. So yeah, two sort of different things. [[User:NyanThousand|NyanThousand]] ([[User talk:NyanThousand|talk]]) 11:09, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
:Hello Peter. That map is also partially wrong. Most of the sources to which this map refers cannot be opened. Others, that can be opened, such as [http://www.zamolcanaistra.eu/slike/zemljevid17.jpg this] or [https://www.croatianviewpoint.com/Content-Folder/Maps/2map.jpg this] show inprecise map. I will now link to [https://proleksis.lzmk.hr/50450/ Proleksis Encyclopedia] which shows the correct map, just for the reference, although I have to point out that they have a copyright mark on their page. This is [https://proleksis.lzmk.hr/slike1/VojnaKrajina.JPG their map].
::The municipalities of one are exactly identical to the legislative districts of the other, and are shown with the same names, identically placed. Are you saying that you want the city dots to be retained, but given shapes showing the city boundaries? [[User:Maproom|Maproom]] ([[User talk:Maproom|talk]]) 12:44, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
:Their map shows Military Frontier in 1745. Area marked in blue is Croatian Frontier (Hrvatska krajina), area marked in purple is Ban's Frontier (Banska krajina). Area marked in brown is Slavonian Frontier (Slavonska krajina), as its purpose was defending the territory of Slavonia from the Ottomans. It is all quite logical. Slavonian Frontier was buffer zone between medieval Slavonia and the Ottoman Empire, while Croatian Frontier was buffer zone between medieval Croatia Proper and the Ottoman Empire. You can also see on [[commons:File:Hungary,_Croatia,_Bosnia_and_Galicia_in_the_12th_century.jpg|this map]] where medieval Slavonia (Szlawonia) was and where medieval Croatia (Horvat Kiralysag) was. It is logical therefore that their military frontiers (few centuries later) were just east of them. [[User:Franjo Tahy|Franjo Tahy]] ([[User talk:Franjo Tahy|talk]]) 12:41, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

:::Yeah, something like that. Color in the cities by legislative district instead of having dots. Or maybe a map of the province (without the cities) divided by district. Though I think having city boundaries would be more useful, information-wise. [[User:NyanThousand|NyanThousand]] ([[User talk:NyanThousand|talk]]) 03:33, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

:*Label all the cities by their names (or leave the current numbers and number-key in place), and leave the current county name labels in place.
:*Draw a thick link between the eastern and western districts.
:*Select a different color for each district division, and apply that color to all the counties and all the cities within that division.

::Thank you! Several comments on this draft:
:#Could you switch colors for the Harrisonburg and Abingdon divisions? Maybe it's because of my colorblindness, but I see the colors for Abingdon and Big Stone Gap as identical to each other, and the same is true for Harrisonburg and Lynchburg.
:#Could you shrink the font size for the labels for Appomattox and Buckingham counties? The labels are hard to read because of their length.
:#The key misspells the names of two cities, [[Colonial Heights, Virginia|Colonial Heights]] and [[Waynesboro, Virginia|Waynesboro]], and in the color key for the divisions, [[Big Stone Gap, Virginia|Big Stone Gap]] has a capitalisation mistake, "Big stone Gap". Probably capitalising ''district'', i.e. "Eastern District" and "Western District", is also more correct.
:#Three cities in the southeast corner (Suffolk, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach) incorrectly have names as well as numbers (and Virginia Beach is mislabelled as Norfolk); could you remove the names?
:#A bunch of cities are erroneously not colored as cities:
::*Suffolk, Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Portsmouth (all in the Norfolk Division)
::*Poquoson, Hampton, Newport News, and Williamsburg (all in the Newport News Division)
::*Colonial Heights and Hopewell (in the Richmond Division)
::*Fredericksburg (boundary between Richmond and Alexandria divisions)

The Graphics Lab is a project to improve the graphical content of the Wikimedia projects. Requests for image improvements can be added to the workshop pages: Illustrations, Photographs and Maps. For questions or suggestions one can use the talk pages: Talk:Graphics Lab, Talk:Illustrations, Talk:Photographs and Talk:Maps. This specific page is the requests page for the Map workshop. Anyone can make a request for a map to be created or improved for a Wikipedia article. The standard format for making a request is shown below, along with general advice, and should be followed.
You are encouraged to share information and request advice from others. Also see possible conventions toolbox, map tutorials and topographic map tutorials.
Advice to requesters
What do we do?
Location maps
Area maps (animals, languages, empires, etc.)
Historical and conflict related maps
Battle maps
Technical maps (archaeology, city closeups, etc.)
Sourced requests: If possible, please try to provide a reliable source to create a map. This includes a map already on Wikipedia with a reliable source or an external link.
Please check: Please check back regularly to see if progress has been made or if any additional questions need to be answered before the request can be completed.
Direct collaboration: Some mapmakers are especially interested by one topic area. If you notice a mapmaker fitting your needs, consider asking on their personal talk page to request maps.
{{Reqmap}}: To request a map, you can also tag the talk page of the article in need of a map with or {{Reqmapin|Australia}} (articles then appear in Category:Wikipedia requested maps)
If a request is done to your satisfaction, please mark it with {{resolved}}.
Advice to Graphists
If you have completed work and not received a reply you may use the {{GL Map reply}} template to inform the requester.
Map makers and other visitors to the Graphics Lab may be interested in the RSS feed of changes to this page. You may find it here.
I am just wondering can somebody make a Map of US states with the Uncommitted vote in 2024 Democratic Party presidential primaries. The higher the % number the darker the color of the state would be. Here are the numbers.
Request taken by F4U. Currently building this map using R and the NYTimes API.

Hi @Dan Leonard, I'm not familiar with ArcGIS data, but if you can copy the data tables, and select the Pennsylvanian nodes, you can convert them to a map like this one to the right. Click on edit source to see the code.
Type, coord, title, description, marker and marker-color all have the same unique number per row.
In this example, row3 defines a line around Pennsylvania (id3 = Wiki data id Q1400)
If a quick selection isn't possible, you can always trim the dataset down by coords (Pennsylvania is pretty square).
The article Leagues Cup, a soccer tournament in North America, has a section on its format. I need help with displaying the locations of the teams from each organization into one single labeled map of all teams from Mexico (Liga MX teams shown at bottom), Canada, and the US (both countries' MLS teams shown at top). This format would have MLS team location dots in blue and Liga MX teams in green. This map doesn't have to have individual states shaded (as the one in MLS). I am hoping that an editor may help me with creating one, or if possible, may please create one for me. Here are the maps in question that are to be used for reference:
Would a map like on this page 2024–25 UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup be good? Viewers can [ ] enlarge the map to fullscreen mode and zoom in, show nearby articles.
Test 1: Using template MLS labeled map and location map Mexico.
Results:
MLS is not in needed map coords: lookup coords stadiums in format 49.276667|-123.111944|Vancouver Whitecaps FC
MEX map example is not in stadium, zoom in to see difference, lookup coords stadiums too.
The old maps don't use any logo of the clubs. I'd suggest adding them to the labels: click on pins to see them. Click enlarge map to zoom/pan/check all the details. Reload to refresh map. San Jose = big logo 200px, the rest in 50px version.
Any ideas about what should be included in the descriptions?
We'll need to test whether they can be displayed through a template, if that counts as displaying the images on an article, which is allowed. This page doesn't count as an article... Groetjes, Peter (talk) 09:01, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Groetjes, Peter, thank you for approaching my proposal. My apologies for not swiftly responding to your feedback.

Map request of Auckland region local government areas
@Traumnovelle, did you try to find a digital version of the map yourself? If so, which sources did you already check?
I've searched a bit more info, but I'm not familiar with NZ sources and border changes, so I hope that others can take the job on. I've made maps in the old days with paper and a lightbox, and not every drawer was as precise, so the old map might contain a few faults as well. A good "1967-borders-alike" source would save a lot of drawing time.
Maybe https://www.stats.govt.nz/ does have downloadable maps and data, maybe there are more suitable govt.nz sources;
Perhaps there's a special add-on tool available for QGIS like PDOK for the Netherlands.
Here are a few maps on Commons. Some borders are recognisable, but many have changed, like the south part of the Auckland region: The old map also stretches onto a piece of current Waikato + Hauraki (gather those sources if you use modern maps to reproduce the old).
You mean a digital version of a map of counties and boroughs of the Auckland region? That is probably the best image of them I can find. The maps you've provided show completely different boundaries to the old local government areas which haven't existed since 1989. I didn't suggest a specific map of Auckland because I don't see one on Commons best suited for the task: [2] would be best if higher resolution but the low resolution may cause issues with drawing boundaries.
The old map probably isn't perfect but the only other material are physical maps and maps of the specific borough e.g.: [3] are mostly undigitised, even if they all were it'd be an incredibly tedious task although I am happy to provide as many of these individual maps as I can find if one were to seriously want to try and get the borders as precise as that. Traumnovelle (talk) 18:56, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the feedback. The detailed maps are indeed a bit too much for this request. They might be an interesting input for the Historical OSM project. It's good to know we're talking about pre 1989 boundaries. It might give a lead. There must be enough GIS shapefiles to choose from as a base map.

I don't know what a GIS shapefile is or where to begin with digital cartography. I don't mind attempting it myself, I just don't believe I have the technical ability to do so. Traumnovelle (talk) 22:56, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Don't hold yourself back by thinking it is as difficult as it used to be. These programs are really getting easier to use. For instance, the free program I use, QGIS, has its own installation and (try yourself/follow along) user training manuals on docs.qgis.org. That means you can make simple files yourself today. I've used a bunch of tutorials on YouTube, particularly to learn things that looked very difficult, but turned out to be simple by following the lead.
QGIS is a great addition to GIMP, Inkscape and Scribus (free alternatives to Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign). You can for instance make a map in QGIS and then export it to Inkscape to make it look better. Shapefiles connect dots, just like a vector program like Inkscape does. You can start to learn Inkscape skills for instance through Logos by Nick on YT, by just spending 5 to 30 minutes a day. By taking little steps, you can progress into other free programs like QGIS, and if you still enjoy the process, end up using Blender for 3D animation and films.
A GIS works with coordinate-related data: points, lines, polygons = shapes. When you define a point/line/shape, you can add data to them. It's like making an Excel-table or cascading style sheet.css stick to a drawing. Save the map you've made and it creates a set of different files: data-base-files.dbf, project.prj, shapes.shp and a few others. You can easily download loads of data from reliable sources, like the LINZ Data Importer for NZ government data. A lot of shapes have already been traced by others, so you can simply load them in and use them and already available data to make presentations.
I tried to see whether I could quickly make a background map, that you might use in inkscape. It's easier to drag and drop an image in Inkscape, scale it (locked dimensions) down to a size you want, and then start retracing the lines. The New Zealand sources of satellite images, shape files etcetera are available, but you have to ask for a set of different access keys to a few government information providers. Downloading a satellite map went very fast, but for shapes and such I'll have to ask a key. I'll look into that this weekend. (Are you faster?) ;D Groetjes, Peter (talk) 12:20, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to know more about sources used, please ask.
Lastly, im fairly sure the asthetic sould look professional in a way sombody like me could not recreate to meet the standards of some people anyway im sure you guys know what you're doing when it comes to this. Editor account 2222 (talk) 23:52, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, can someone please fix this map, as it incorrectly shows that Slavonian Military Frontier is Croatian Military Frontier. The area on the map where there is acronym C.M.F. should instead have written S.M.F. (Slavonian Military Frontier). Thanks a lot. -- Franjo Tahy (talk) 13:08, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This map is similar to the map of the Kingdom of Slavonia to the right, which has the same C.M.F. indication, and a long list of referenced sources in its description. It seems like the borders didn't change a lot in the range of a few centuries. Can you link to reliable sources that prove the above map should indeed be altered? Groetjes, Peter (talk) 13:36, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Peter. That map is also partially wrong. Most of the sources to which this map refers cannot be opened. Others, that can be opened, such as this or this show inprecise map. I will now link to Proleksis Encyclopedia which shows the correct map, just for the reference, although I have to point out that they have a copyright mark on their page. This is their map.
Their map shows Military Frontier in 1745. Area marked in blue is Croatian Frontier (Hrvatska krajina), area marked in purple is Ban's Frontier (Banska krajina). Area marked in brown is Slavonian Frontier (Slavonska krajina), as its purpose was defending the territory of Slavonia from the Ottomans. It is all quite logical. Slavonian Frontier was buffer zone between medieval Slavonia and the Ottoman Empire, while Croatian Frontier was buffer zone between medieval Croatia Proper and the Ottoman Empire. You can also see on this map where medieval Slavonia (Szlawonia) was and where medieval Croatia (Horvat Kiralysag) was. It is logical therefore that their military frontiers (few centuries later) were just east of them. Franjo Tahy (talk) 12:41, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Because Groetjes, Peter did a beautiful work with Limia distribution maps I requested a few months ago, I am back to ask for a map showing the distribution of Poecilia sphenops based on the IUCN map.
It might be useful to superimpose this single species map with the species complex map such as the one seen here, perhaps using a lighter shade to indicate the distribution of the complex. It might be a good idea to smudge the edges of the complex distribution. Surtsicna (talk) 12:21, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bumping thread.
Request taken.
Done
Request taken by F4U. Currently building this map using R and the NYTimes API. I could make a county-level map for some states, but annoyingly not all states use counties as their precinct-level (RI, MA, and CT use townships; Hawaii uses congressional districts). ~ F4U (talk • they/it) 18:40, 5 December 2024 (UTC).
