::{{Done}} {{re|Hgh1985}} Luckily, some of the maps in the [[Donbas]] article are sourced (I used the sources to show the occupied territories). You'll notice that I created two maps: a "SVG base map" and a "SVG requested map" (the SVG equivalent of the png map). Also, unlike the png map, the projection is centred on Ukraine (in line with similar maps). [[User:M.Bitton|M.Bitton]] ([[User talk:M.Bitton|talk]]) 22:27, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

;Article(s):

: [[South Africa]]

;Request:

: Can I please get an orthographic projection centered and highlighting South Africa on the article? The current one there doesn't have South Africa centered. -- [[User:Flags200|Flags200]] ([[User talk:Flags200|talk]]) 04:16, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

*{{Done}} {{re|Flags200}} To be honest, I'm not sure it's an improvement over what's in the article as it may it look quite remote from the rest of the African countries. Maybe centring it on where the Zambia, Angola and DRC borders meet could yield a better a result. Have a look and let me know what you think.

It looks great. The current map in the South Africa article is centered on the democratic republic of the Congo and because of that, South Africa looks a bit distorted.
