Neutral Excellent map. However it's POV since only shows the UK&Gib POV (that the fence between Spanish and Gibraltar territory is an international border). Phrase "International border" must say "International border (not recognized by Spain)" or even better "Fence/Frontier". Mind that all the agreements between Spain, UK and Gibraltar, such as the Cordoba Agreement talks about "fence/frontier" (stating that "This phrase means frontier for the UK and Gibraltar, and fence for Spain").--Ecemaml (talk to me/habla conmigo) 23:39, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
Info I've uploaded a modified version replacing « International border » by the more neutral (?) term « Frontier », even if it is disputed (or should I have used the expression « De Facto Boundary » like in the CIA map ?) and notified the claims of Spain about this area. I didn't use the term « Fence » as this one is really of Spanish-centred use which of course can be mentioned in the article pages of the different WPs. Sting 12:00, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Comment I think that de facto frontier would be the most accurate approach (however, maybe just a note on the box simply stating that its not recognized by Spain would be fine). --Ecemaml (talk to me/habla conmigo) 13:20, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
