I hacked away at a new version, modifying the colors slightly from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Maps/Conventions/Area_maps|Area maps]], and using the legend template. I think its better, but not sure if the large font is acceptable; any feedback is appreciated -- [[User:Strangerpete|Strangerpete]] ([[User talk:Strangerpete|talk]]) 15:37, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

: [[Nepal]]

;Request:

: Nepal had political map change in Indian controlled area. Add in light green the disputed area to the Nepal map. The color light green should be similar to India's orthographic projection see here https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:India_(orthographic_projection).svg .

;Discussion:

:[[User:Manabimasu|Manabimasu]] you appear to have already updated the map yourself. Is there anything further that needs doing? [[User:Chipmunkdavis|CMD]] ([[User talk:Chipmunkdavis|talk]]) 10:31, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

:{{reply to|Chipmunkdavis}} I tried myself but the claimed area looks a bit too big. I didn't use GMT when I used inkscape so the claimed area was more of a freehand. If anyone can fix it or show me a tutorial on using GMT with Inkscape then the map can be properly done.[[User:Manabimasu|Manabimasu]] ([[User talk:Manabimasu|talk]]) 14:42, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

;Article(s):

: [[Territorial disputes of India and Nepal]], [[Kuthi Valley]], [[Kalapani territory]]

;Request:

: A map is needed to show the claims of Nepal over some parts of Indian-controlled territory. There are two separate but neighbouring claimed areas, the Kuthi valley and Kalapani. An external example showing the differences between the two territories would be [https://www.nepalitimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Nepal-India-territory-conflicts-map-NT.jpg this Nepali times map]. However, that map is not 100% correct, see this [https://assets-api.kathmandupost.com/thumb.php?src=https://assets-cdn.kathmandupost.com/uploads/source/news/2019/default/nepal-map.png&w=900&height=601 official Nepal map] which includes the disputed territory in the top left (although it doesn't distinguish from undisputed territory). One difference is that the official map has a little hook in the top-left not present on the Nepali times map. The [[Kalapani territory]] article also has an open street map link which has the disputed borders coloured in orange, and clearly shows the river which divides the two claimed areas. I think a map showing the area somewhere between what is visible on the 5km and 10km open map scales would be the best, but I don't know of a good base map for the area already on Wikipedia. At that scale the map would include 5 areas: China, rump India, rump Nepal, the Kuthi valley, and Kalapani. Thanks to anyone who can take a look at this. -- [[User:Chipmunkdavis|CMD]] ([[User talk:Chipmunkdavis|talk]]) 10:56, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
