Creación de mapas[edit]

Hola Fobos92, te agradecería que cuando crearas mapas nuevos (como el del idioma japonés), añadieras siempre una leyenda y las fuentes utilizadas para su elaboración. No quiero transmitírtelo como queja o molestia personal, sino porque es lo mejor para todos en general, ya que lo que para unos puede ser evidente, para los otros puede resultar no serlo tanto. Un saludo.--Franxo (talk) 20:37, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Could you make Denmark yellow and Guatemala and Costa Rica green? You forgot to add Denmark and Guatemala and Costa Rica both just denounced the actions by the government of Venezuela. --Zfigueroa (talk) 01:06, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Baltic Finnic Languages (Map)[edit]

Hi, some people over here in Finland have been wondering about your map of the [[File:Lenguas_fino-bálticas.png|(Baltic) Finnic languages]]. I think we would be happy if you could change it in some regards. If you could provide me with an e-mail address, I could send you the best available map, from Aloja ja aiheita (Festschrift for Terho Itkonen). You could use it as a base for an updated map.

However, this map shows the situation in 1812–1939, so if you wanted to present today’s picture, you would have to take into account the border changes of 1940 and 1944. (The ceded territories no longer have speakers of Karelian and should be represented as blanks.)

Idioma siciliano[edit]

Salve, continuerai a realizzare le mappe di tutte le lingue d'Italia, sardo e siciliano compreso? --Markos90 (talk) 22:25, 8 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Grazie, ho visto i tuoi contributi. Nel file sull'idioma siciliano, tuttavia, dovresti rimuovere la parte in blu del Cilento. --Markos90 (talk) 17:42, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you![edit]

The Original Barnstar
Fobos92 - I appreciate your map of Berber dialects very much. I am a researching the geography of 'Tamazgha', and I'd really like to now what data you used to create such a great map. All the same, well done - great work Jah221 (talk) 12:59, 28 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hola. Me ha parecido que en este mapa hay un pequeño despiste: En lugar de Angola aparece la vecina Namibia con más de 10 millones de lusófonos. Por lo demás, gracias por tu trabajo

Chinese dialect maps[edit]

Hi, Fobos92. Since you're uploading new maps, it would be better to give them new names rather than overwriting the existing maps. Perhaps File:Mandarin in East Asia.png, etc, since your maps cover a wider area than China. Also, the green maps were based on the Language Atlas of China, but what are yours based on? For example I don't think there's a Mandarin-speaking area in North Korea, and although Standard Chinese is the official language of Taiwan (as it is for the whole of mainland China), the native tongue of most of the people there is Minnan or Hakka. Kanguole (talk) 14:21, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your map series is interesting, but it's a quite different scheme from the maps you've overwritten, so could you please upload your maps with new names and restore the green ones? Kanguole (talk) 22:44, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Because your versions are substantially different, they should be uploaded under new names, per Commons:Overwriting existing files. I have reverted the maps at these existing names to the old versions. Kanguole (talk) 18:51, 21 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Navarro-Aragonese[edit]

Hi/Hola Fobos92, copio de wikipedia. First of all congratulations for your maps. The graphic design of this map is pretty good. However, the early stages of the map are not very accurate. Since the Navarro-Aragonese article is largely composed by me I can help making linguistic boundaries more precise. The fact is that it was a multilingual environment where you add yellow colour. The sub-Pyrenean valleys and at least rural areas of the central Pyrenees were Basque speaking up to some point between the 11 or 14th century (17th probably in the Jaca region). Of course post-Latin languages (Occitan first and Navarro-Aragonese later with its link to Mozarabic) started to develop around the main roads and urban areas since 11th century. Basque was banned in Huesca's very marketplace in 1349! Podemos seguir en castellano. Regards Iñaki LLM (talk) 19:14, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hola Fobos92, ¿cómo va? No tengo prisa, pero respondí hace tiempo a tu petición y me gusta que cuando una conversación con contenido comienza (como en este caso) tenga continuación.

Between the dragon and the deep blue sea[edit]

Kind and obliging in a nest of Norwegian dragons
Please accept my apologies for being typically Norwegian. I am told one thing is very typically Norwegian and that is heated quarreling amongst ourselves about our language. But "foreigners" unite us. It is not easy to unawares land in the middle of such heated love for a language. My sincerest respect for the way you with kindness and obliging good will met our requests.   Dyveldi    20:23, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Norwegian in Sweden?[edit]

Hello, would you please take another look at File:Europe germanic-languages 2.PNG, and make a more accurate version!? There is no evidence of norwegian spoken in those parts of Sweden! Bw --Morten Haugen (talk) 15:28, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Germanic languages[edit]

Hello, and thank you for uploading new versions of File:Lenguas germánicas.PNG and File:Europe germanic-languages 2.PNG. I wonder if you could look at them one more time, and supply even more accurate versions:

  • When it comes to Scotland, I see that you have been in edit wars on File:Europe germanic-languages 2.PNG. Your opinion seem to be that english is not spoken in Glasgow nor any place west of Glasgow, while all other users prefer versions where all of Scotland is indicated as english speaking. I hope that you would either provide sources to support your opinion, or redo the map.
  • As for Norway, i'm still not quite satisfied about the division between nynorsk and bokmål.
    • You know that these are written variations, right? Not spoken. (I suppose that the colour difference between scots and english and within german are intented to reflect spoken variations?) Divisions of spoken norwegian into dialects are shown in these maps, which seem to be fairly coherent with sources. I would not recommend you to indicate the dialects in this map, anyway; that is done in other maps.
    • Furthermore, the map is only almost exact. The border between bokmål and nynorsk are perhaps ment to resemble the one in these maps, but could have been sharper; if there is any point in marking it at all.
    • And to make it even more complicated: the distribution of nynorsk in your maps are highlighting area covered, giving weight to sparcely populated municipalities with large areas, such as Vinje. Within the area marked as nynorsk country are two our Norway's largest cities, Bergen and Stavanger, neither of them are dominated by nynorsk.

My suggestion is that you should redo Norway and Scotland again, without any internal borders. Probably Wales too. Bw --Morten Haugen (talk) 20:21, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for redoing these maps as far as Norway and Sweden are considered. I would however also urge to to reconsider your presentation of Scotland and Wales.
Maps like this and this seem to build upon sources, reflecting quantity of scots speaking. Neither of them supports the idea that english/scots is not spoken in Western Soctland. If the variation in colour in your map are supposed to indicate a different level of distribution, you should at the very least supply a description, explaing the use of colour and stripes, referring to sources.
As for welsh, this map seem to reflect data about how many who ar able to speak welsh, but it gives no information about the qantity of non-english-speaking. It would not be good research methodology to assume that presence of welsh means absence of english. If you cannot provide better sources, you should also redraw the map concerning Wales.
Bw --Morten Haugen (talk) 15:27, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, would you please respond to this, in one way or another. Redo the maps, add an explanation, or provide sources. But please don't ignore it. Bw --Morten Haugen (talk) 15:36, 25 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thanks for your good linguistic maps. Carry on with the good work, do not be deterred by the kind of verbal abuse that is to be read above. Some people are clearly forgetting that contributing here is voluntary work and that some courtesy would be in order, if not even mere politeness. I just wanted to tell you I left a message on this map's discussion page to pinpoint a slight inaccuracy as far as North-West Brittany is concerned.

He notado que eres una fabrica de mapas, y veo que la mayoria les sacas de tu imaginacion.Te invito a leer solo un poquito sobre la lengua rumana y luego ponte a realizar un mapa sobre ello. No se de donde sacaste tu las areas donde se hablan los subdialectos rumanos, los subdialectos rumanos son dividisos en dos grupos: muntenesc şi oltenesc en el sur y moldovenesc (moldavo) y ardelenesc (transilvanio) en la mitad norte y Republica Moldova. El rumano, es la lengua estandardizada de estos dialectos. Segun tu mapa, yo que vivo en Moldova rumana hablo rumano, y no el dialecto moldavo. Borrala es una tonteria tu mapa, y seguramente todas estan hechas de tu imaginacion, como te dejan mentir y manipular la gente?--Bogdan Muraru (talk) 16:23, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
