'''Request:''' I have translated this map using (Template:Translation possible). But I really need help with changing MAR CARIBE to CARIBBEAN SEA. The letters are made of nodes, and not text. Thanks in advance. [[User:The Illusional Ministry|The Illusional Ministry]] ([[User talk:The Illusional Ministry|talk]]) 23:44, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Remove them and put in new text. It's Times New Roman, all-caps, bold italic. You can leave the original text in while you put in new text to get an idea of the 'right' size. (But of course, any size goes, as long as it's readable yet subtle.) [[User:Classical geographer|Classical geographer]] ([[User talk:Classical geographer|talk]]) 09:08, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
:Did you get this fixed? Do you still need help?? [[User:MapMaster|MapMaster]] ([[User talk:MapMaster|talk]]) 03:22, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

I just uploaded a new version. I not only fixed the big blue text block, I also enlarged the Legend, inserted a new locator map of Venezuela, set the ocean color to the English Wikipedia standard, changed the dashed border to a line, and enlarged the names of the islands. I also pulled the title of the map and the little teeney coordinate numbers ''inside'' the map, where they belong. All of these edits, in my opinion at least, make the map a bit easier to read and understand. Hope you like them.

'''Article(s):''' To appear in [[Bavaria, Kansas]]; [[Bridgeport, Kansas]]; [[Falun, Kansas]]; [[Hedville, Kansas]]; [[Kipp, Kansas]]; and [[Mentor, Kansas]]
'''Request:''' Could someone add the towns listed in "articles:" above to the maps above, and create maps of the same style for each of those towns given [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_32.pdf this] to locate the towns and [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_10.pdf] [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_11.pdf] [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_13.pdf] [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_21.pdf] [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_22.pdf] [http://www.saline.kansasgov.com/admin/forms/3_23.pdf] to shape the towns? I'm sorry this is such a large request, and it can be done in stages or broken into separate requests if necessary. Also, to give a sense of scale, the small red square (bottom-left most) highlighted red on the first map in the gallery is one mile by one mile. Major thanks in advance, and most likely a barnstar upon completion.

'''Graphist opinion(s):'''
I notice the existing maps don't match their description either since they don't include the unincorporated communities. I'll see what I can do. [[User:Kmusser|Kmusser]] ([[User talk:Kmusser|talk]]) 15:29, 27 January 2010 (UTC) Based on the county map it looks like there ought to be a Glendale, KS as well.
