'''Request:''' I made these orthographic maps, and based the national borders on the default borders from the output generator. ([http://www.aquarius.geomar.de/omc/make_map.html]) I noticed that the old robinson map for China ([[:Image:Location China.svg]]) had some unrecognised territories in light green. I tried to do the same thing on China's globe.

Now I've got these messages on Commons:

Thanks for the India projection. But for inclusion on Wikipedia, I'm afraid we would have to neutrally represent the map of India. The version you uploaded equates the Line of Control as the International border. Please could you edit the disputed regions?

I suppose we should stick with the previous, established map until this has been sorted out. --[[User:Dbachmann|Dbachmann]] ([[User talk:Dbachmann|<span class="signature-talk">talk</span>]]) 20:09, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

Hi.this is a link to the political map of India which shows international boundaries rather than line of actual control.

http://www.mapsofindia.com/maps/india/india-political-map.htm

And this is a an official link http://india.gov.in/maps/indiaindex.php

Please change the picture or remove it completely as it is not factually accurate.

:Hi sorry, I missed out on your reply: Please see [[:Image:India-locator-map-blank.svg]]. It explains the scenario very well. [[Kashmir]] and [[Arunachal Pradesh]] are the disputed areas.

::Dear Ssolbergj, your map of China colors Arunachal Pradesh in light green (together with Taiwan)which implies it is somehow rather a part of CHina although under Indian administration. Why then doesn't the India map have Aksai Chin (a Chinese administered region claimed by India) be colored light green on the India map? Same goes with Pakistan occupied kashmir. Shouldn't those areas be in light green too? Please maintain neutrality as prescribed under [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view]]. I look forward to you recoloring those maps with a NPOV in mind and not China slanted views. (Reference: [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:People's_Republic_of_China_(orthographic_projection).svg] vs [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:India_(orthographic_projection).svg]. Thank you.

Can someone ''please'' sort this out and draw the right borders? I'm lost. :( - [[User:Ssolbergj|SSJ]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Ssolbergj|☎]] 14:22, 22 November 2008 (UTC)<br />
