==Indian state blank svgs needed==
{{Stale|1=[[User:DyceBot|DyceBot]] ([[User talk:DyceBot|talk]]) 07:04, 8 January 2010 (UTC)}}
Hi. I noticed [[:File:Assam protected areas map-blank.svg]]. We are desperately needing good svg blank maps of the states of India (with the districts lightly outlined) for use in pushpin in infoboxes. Basically I'm looking for a full set of maps of each of the Indian states in the style of [[:File:Pakistan ___location map.svg]]. Like your Assam map but blank. Amazingly nobody has created blank svgs for India yet and we've had to put up with the horrible colored maps for ages. Could the graphics lab please create some good quality blank svgs and list the coordinates like on the Pakistan image page to make it possible to use for pin maps? Thanks.[[User:Dr. Blofeld| <span style="border:1px solid blue;padding:1px;"> <
:You should probably check in over at [[:Wikipedia:WikiProject Indian maps]] to see if they're going to have heartburn over changing those. Many of those colored maps started out as blank ones and it would just be a matter of rolling them back to the earlier version, but I wouldn't do so without getting some consensus from the Indian maps folks.

The map you give as an example comes from a range of maps showing countries and larger regions, including continents; for those, a position with respect to the world makes sense. For Quebec, currently all maps show the region in relation to Canada. An orthographic projection can of course be made, but I just want to make sure beforehand that this is not requested for secessionist purposes. By the way, you might also consider asking at [[commons:Grey-green orthographic projections maps]].

This article could be improved considerably with a map. [http://www.thelist.tas.gov.au:/listmap/listmap.jsp?llx=462663.18794214877&lly=5274337.390526229&urx=466183.19596780994&ury=5276359.255&layers=17&disabledlayers= LIST] is going to be the best source for topography and the names of things. [http://www.parks.tas.gov.au/index.aspx?base=3605 This] gives a good overview. Walking tracks should be included - you can't drive most places there.

'''Request:''' Can someone please make SVG locator maps for each province/city based visually on the maps above?

'''Graphist opinion:'''
Is something wrong with the older locator maps, such as this one:
<div class="center"><gallery>
File:The administration map of Gyeongsangbuk Province.jpg

Of course, the old map is not an SVG, but locating is just a dot placed over any map - whether it is SVG or JPG doesn't really matter, does it? [[User:Classical geographer|Classical geographer]] ([[User talk:Classical geographer|talk]]) 15:42, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

:::That is what I actually did. The Wikipedia renderer will not show text that has been placed on paths, so I changed the text (object) to a path. I also moved the text for the southern river under the river. I find it's better to place text on the outside of a concave image (like the river in this case) rather than inside. Inside text looks cramped in my opinion.
:::By the way, I will often convert '''all''' the text in a map to paths because of the somewhat imprecise way Wikipedia renders text (which in turn has something to do with the fonts available to Wikipedia).
:::Regarding the coordinates, their non-rendering had something to do with them being all one big text field. I replaced the one big text field with 4 individual fields.
