'''Request:''' Picture [[:File:Rekordaj_alproksimighoj_al_pi.png]] is used in this article.

So: can someone redraw [[:File:Rekordaj_alproksimighoj_al_pi.png]] as an SVG vector diagram?

:::There is a jag in the time line, presumably to identify gaps in the line. That's fine, but there's a concurrent jag in the graph. One might argue that the position of the graph is the distance above the x-axis, so a jag in the graph is warranted, but I disagree.

For reference, here are some suggestions I made on the pi Talk page:
 
::*Colors: a simple black-on-white would be best. WP sort of has a policy to avoid relying on colors, due to color-blind readers.
::*Axes: The vertical axis should be "Number of digits" and the horiz axis "Year".
::*Scale: the vertical axis has to be logarithmic. Horiz axis should probably keep the "breaks" so the graph is not flat for centuries.
::*Year axis: the labels on the vertical axis are too hard to read (to get the number of zeros); suggest use scientific notation e.g. 10<sup>12</sup> etc
::*Font: use Arial or Helvetica.
::*File format: Ideally, the picture should be in [[SVG]] vector format, not a pixel format like GIF/PNG/TIFF. That way, future editors can edit the file, and tweak individual graphic elements (for example, as new records are set, future editors could add new points onto the end of the graph). I've used [[InkScape]] in the past to create SVG pictures: InkScape is free, mature, and works on Mac or PC. To get to SVG Format would entail re-drawing the picture from scratch.
::*Data: Another reason to re-draw the picture from scratch is because we don't know what source the original picture creator used: their data may be suspect. the [[WP:V]] policy applies to data in graphs as well: we must be able to identify a source. I'd suggest the data points from [[Chronology of computation of π]] are the best data to use. The Arndt book has a great table (in an appendix) summarizing the num digits over time, and it is consistent with the [[Chronology of computation of π]] data, so I'd just use the latter as a starting point.
::*Newest data: it would be great if you could extend the old graph to include the newest data through 2011 (as shown in [[Chronology of computation of π]])

If I might comment, the 1e+012 is a very odd, jarring and probably incorrect form to use for the axis. It would make much more sense to use 10<sup>12</sup> as suggested, or 10^12 if it needs to be in one line for some reason. --[[User:Martin23230|'''<span style="font-family:Century Gothic; font-size:medium;">23230</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:Martin23230|<span style="font-family:Century Gothic;">talk</span>]]</sup> 18:35, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
:Looking again, a few more suggestions. I think it would be a good idea to mark with a vertival like exactly where the breaks in the axis are, looking at it there is a jump between -250 and 480 that has no clue as to where it is. I would also suggest using BCE or just negative notation instead of BC, but that's more a minor thing. Finally, have the x-axis continue past -2000 but have the line fade off (or dashed) to show we don't have any knowledge before then. Starting it as it does just implies that is the first time anyone ever created it, which may not be true. --[[User:Martin23230|'''<span style="font-family:Century Gothic; font-size:medium;">23230</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:Martin23230|<span style="font-family:Century Gothic;">talk</span>]]</sup> 18:41, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
::Agree that 10<sup>12</sup> is more attractive & understandable than 1e+012. --[[User:Noleander|Noleander]] ([[User talk:Noleander|talk]]) 18:54, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
 
::Frankly, I'm having difficulties using superscript characters with gnuplot. I could use the 10^2 notation, but I'm not sure whether everyone would be familiar with that notation. Of course, the same is true for the scientific exponent notation (1e2), which many (but possibly not all) are familiar with. Second opinion needed.
::As for the "break", there is none in my graphics. The x axis grows linearly from 2000 BC to 1400, and then again linearly but 20 times as fast. So the only "break" would be at 1400, but since I denoted the key changes along the axis from 2000 BC to 1400 I think users will be capable of interpolating in between. As for BC vs. BCE, why would one be better than the other?
::Extending the graph to the left with a dashed line is a pretty minor aesthetic change, IMO, and problematic actually since we don't know at which value to continue that line: should it be at 2, 1, or 0 digits of pi that were known prior to that date?
::Nonetheless, thanks for your input! [[User:Nageh|Nageh]] ([[User talk:Nageh|talk]]) 19:01, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
:::Concur that the issues (other than exponent) are rather minor and can be set aside. Regarding the exponent: The use of caret 10^2 is not common enough, and would confuse lots of readers. To get a superscript: could you create two separate strings "10" and "12" and make the font smaller for the "12" string? Or would the relative positioning of the two strings be too risky because it might display differently in different rendering engines? --[[User:Noleander|Noleander]] ([[User talk:Noleander|talk]]) 19:07, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
::::There are manual ways around it, which means editing the SVG file, but the horrible thing is that Firefox has an outstanding bug for 7(!) years now that it prevents it from rendering superscript characters. Just plain horrible! I'll see what I can do. [[User:Nageh|Nageh]] ([[User talk:Nageh|talk]]) 19:12, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
:::::It might just be a British thing, but I'm pretty sure most people would know what 10^2 meant and I've never seen anyone write or even type 1e+2 (unless it's entered into a calculator), especially as that should be a capital E. And I do now get what you mean with the scale on the x-axis, it's just the non-uniform scale that seems could be clearer. Extending the graph I suppose would be problematic, I would just suggest moving the ends of the axes off slightly so the line doesn't touch the y-axis. Also, I don't know what you're using to edit the graph but Inkscape has a functional superscript function. Finally on BC/BCE I suppose should just defer to the article which uses BC, not what I would do for a scientific graph but it makes sense for the article. --[[User:Martin23230|'''<span style="font-family:Century Gothic; font-size:medium;">23230</span>''']] <sup>[[User talk:Martin23230|<span style="font-family:Century Gothic;">talk</span>]]</sup> 19:26, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
::::::No, everything is scripted with gnuplot so you don't have to fiddle around manually adjusting positions. It turns out that you need to configure an "enhanced" output mode to support superscripts in gnuplot. So it means it does work after all, and I have just updated the image accordingly. Also, I have changed BC to BCE as suggested (thank God, we don't have such a distinction in my language). [[User:Nageh|Nageh]] ([[User talk:Nageh|talk]]) 19:40, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

Would a full collection in some other format be ok ? I don't get the whole SVG thing, would PNG be ok for you ? When you say white outside, are you wanting a keyhole effect where they are overlaid and you can see something under them, but only in the middle ? <span style="text-shadow:#c5C3e3 0.2em 0.2em 0.2em;">[[User:Penyulap|'''Penyulap''']]</span>[[User talk:Penyulap|<span style="color:transparent;text-shadow:green 0em 0.2em 0.02em;"> ☏</span>]] 17:44, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
