'''Article(s):''' [[Taxation in Norway]]
 
'''Request:''' So I want this map which has all object IDs after [[ISO 3166-2:NO]] colorded after [http://www.skatteetaten.no/Templates/TabellerOgSatserBase.aspx?id=159862&epslanguage=nb-NO this] table. I know how to do this manually (in Inkscape), but I got a bunch of different versions of this map for different uses. Is there any way to use a programe or script to color the map from a spreadsheet or equalent? It would make it a lot easier to make good illustrations for me. I've tried some basic search and replace, but not with great success. [[User:Røed|Røed]] <small>([[:nb:Brukerdiskusjon:Røed|talk]] · [[:nb:User:Røed|no]])</small> 23:49, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

'''Article(s):''' [[Principality of Wales]]
 
'''Request:''' The first is the current infobox map. The second is in the article for the post-1284 period. I think the infobox map should be a composite of the two to give a better representation of the entire history of the principality. My suggestion is to use the Wales in 1267 map as the base and outline in red on it the areas which are in BLUE and GREEN from the Wales after 1284 map (They are the areas within the Principality after 1284). No need to indicate the boundaries shown on the 1284 map ''inside'' the blue and green. I would also suggest outlining the coast red as well to make it clear which side of the line the principality is on (and because one of the areas, Anglesey, is an island). 

The maps appear to be drawn from [http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/maps/13cwales.jpg this source]. If, in the alternative, anyone would like to start from scratch that may be good. All that needs to be shown is three blocks of territories: the original territory in Gwynedd, (called principality of Gwynedd in the source), the principality at its widest extent in 1267 and the principality after 1284 (outlined in red on the source map).

==SVG World Map with Country Names==

'''Request:''' Create an SVG-format world map with country names.
 
'''Graphist opinion:'''
<br>Adapting this from any current world map would be very challenging due to the small size of many countries. Also, that, combined with name lengths, would make any such map basically impossible to read. - [[User:Presidentman|Presidentman]] [[User talk:Presidentman|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Presidentman|contribs]] [[User:Presidentman/potd|Random Picture of the Day]] ([[WP:TBACK|Talkback]]) 17:24, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

'''Request:''' Can a blank SVG map of Guangzhou with district subdivisions be created in the style of image A above? Such an image will be useful for vectorizing images like image B above. Image A is not immediately suitable for vectorization because the outline of the southmost Nansha District is noticeably incorrect. The outline of Nansha District in image B is incorrect, too. Image C is a government-published map and can be used for reference. The new map can be of a lower level of detail than that, though.
