Request: Creating two maps- 1. A blank map of the Indian state of Gujarat with only the Junagarh district shaded 2. A map of Kashmir reflecting the area of the entire state and the current controlling powers over it (possibly like the map in the lead at Insurgency in Jammu and Kashmir)

Crimea map: kerning problem, other suggestions?

Article(s): e.g. crh:Qırım Muhtar Cumhuriyeti

Request: Hi! I made this map with Inkscape for the Crimean Tatar Wikipedia, basing it on the existing outline map of Crimea. At least on my browsers (Safari and Firefox for Mac), the names for some of the cities are squished, especially Kezlev. If it's not just my browser, is there anything I should do to fix that? If people have other general suggestions about the map, I'd appreciate it, since it's my first one. Thanks! Lesgles (talk) 22:51, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Graphist opinion: May try changing it to Arial soon. Ubuntu font did not help — Preceding unsigned comment added by EdwardRech (talkcontribs) 16:37, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

India Roman Catholic dioceses map

Stale

Article(s):

Request: Hello WikiCartographers, please can we have a map of the provinces and dioceses of the Catholic Church in India? I'm looking for something along the lines of the US map in the gallery above? There are 23 Latin rite provinces in India, which are further divided into dioceses. Each diocese is made up of a few civil districts which make up the map of India with districts. The list of districts that make up each diocese is available on the following sites/pages:

The UCAN site has the latest and most reliable data and the description pages of most of the dioceses have a map of India showing the outline of the diocese, which will be helpful. Thanks, The Discoverer (talk) 15:59, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

World cities

Article(s): Cities, Metropolis

Request: A global urbanization map has allready been made (see Global_urbanization.png), yet it would be useful to also map the major cities in the world. Take over the cities from http://esa.un.org/unup/Maps/maps_urban_2011.htm and put them on a blank map. Perhaps also mark the travel time and major travel routes between the cities using this map: http://bioval.jrc.ec.europa.eu/products/gam/index.htm KVDP (talk) 07:11, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
