;Request:

: Keep the contiguous landmass of Afro-Eurasia the same color, but change the color of the non-contiguous landmasses of Afro-Eurasia to a lighter green like the [[Commons:File:Afro-Eurasia with islands highlighted.svg|example image]]. -- [[User:Treetoes023|Treetoes023]] ([[User talk:Treetoes023|talk]]) 18:39, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

:'''Question''': why are the islands highlighted? [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 19:13, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

::{{Reply to|M.Bitton}} There are 2 commonly used definitions of Afro-Eurasia, in the first definition Afro-Eurasia is defined as the combination of the landmasses Africa and Eurasia including adjacent islands. In the second definition Afro-Eurasia is defined as the largest contiguous/continuous landmass in the world or a combination of the landmasses Eurasia and Africa not including adjacent islands. I think that the maps should include both definitions. [[User:Treetoes023|Treetoes023]] ([[User talk:Treetoes023|talk]]) 22:38, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

:::I don't see these two definitions in the article. [https://www.oxfordreference.com/view/10.1093/acref/9780190622718.001.0001/acref-9780190622718-e-11 This reliable source] only supports the first definition. Do you have a reliable source that supports the second? [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 23:40, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

::::{{Reply to|M.Bitton}} I apologize, I was incorrect. The the second definition refers to the term "World Island", which is mentioned in the article and redirects to it. The term is still closely related so I think including the World Island definition in the maps still has merit as long as it is mentioned in the captions. [[User:Treetoes023|Treetoes023]] ([[User talk:Treetoes023|talk]]) 12:26, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

:::::{{re|Treetoes023}} World island is indeed mentioned in the article, but as a different concept. The redirect is wrong (it should be to [[The Geographical Pivot of History]]). [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 15:01, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

::::::{{Reply to|M.Bitton}} Okay, I fixed the redirects. [[User:Treetoes023|Treetoes023]] ([[User talk:Treetoes023|talk]]) 15:18, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

;Article(s):

: [[List of North Carolina area codes]], [[Area codes 910 and 472]], etc...

;Request:

: In 2022, the area code of 910 gained a concurrent code of 472. Could this map be updated to show that change? Thank you for your time and have a good day! -- [[User:DiscoA340|DiscoA340]] ([[User talk:DiscoA340|talk]]) 22:48, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

;Discussion:

*{{re|DiscoA340}} this is a simple task that you can do all by yourself: download the map and open it using a good text editor. Search for the number that you're after "<code><nowiki>910</tspan></nowiki></code>" and replace it with "<code><nowiki>472</tspan></nowiki></code>". Save and upload the updated map. [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 23:35, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] I just tried to do it and I'm hopeless. I found where "910" was in the code but it seems it will would take a few more lines to make "472" drop below it like the others in the image. Sorry about that. [[User:DiscoA340|DiscoA340]] ([[User talk:DiscoA340|talk]]) 23:54, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

::{{re|DiscoA340}} Maybe I misunderstood what you're after. If by "drop below it" you mean you want to add it as a second number, then that's a different story. [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 23:58, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

:::@[[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] Sorry I wasn't clearer, I was hoping for it to look like other regions in the image which have two numbers. Thanks and have a good day. [[User:DiscoA340|DiscoA340]] ([[User talk:DiscoA340|talk]]) 00:07, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

::::{{re|DiscoA340}} {{Done}} Let me know if that's not exactly what you had in mind. [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 00:15, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

:::::@[[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] Perfect, thank you so much for your help, have a great day! [[User:DiscoA340|DiscoA340]] ([[User talk:DiscoA340|talk]]) 00:40, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
