  •  Comment It is not possible for me to fully review this map since I can’t read Polish. With SVG, it should be easy to produce an English version. Here are other hints: some titles seem too big (for example, FENICJA); the legend needs improvement; why is “D a n” written this way?; the numeric scale has no units and some numbers are in italic (why?). Also, I believe you could put a little more detail in the map. - Alvesgaspar 13:49, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment Why would a map describing the history of a country show only part of that country? Unless I am mistaken, the southern provinces are missing... Got it: it is Samaria only and not the whole country + there is a bizarre thing happening: the title of the map reads Palestina or Bliski Wschod (sorry for my polish) depending on the enlargement i use to read it // in any case, not Samaria :-o ... --Diligent 12:53, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose because putting "Made by Marcin.n" in the bottom corner is ugly. The good news is that someone should remove that and reupload (as per the license) pronto. It's not that you don't deserve great thanks for making it... but, I couldn't make something with such a watermark an FP. If that's removed make this a neutral. I can't support because I can't fact check this map since I can't read it. If it is all correct maybe someone could make an English translation? gren 15:11, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I am still opposing... but, since I removed the 'made by' I will oppose for difference reasons. This image is 0.9 MB, which is huge. This and a few other SVGs seems to not be utilizing text properly. That is, images like this one use the text tag... which, I think helps to reduce size... but, more importantly... makes it much easier to translate. So, if it was made with those tags I would support. gren 20:09, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose For the reasons I explained above. - Alvesgaspar 17:04, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support Commons is multilimgual so being in polish isnt a problem, The key is well layed out and all aspects defined, small pick "Aser" in the key would have been better than "Dan" for layout. Gnangarra 06:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment You certainly can read Polish. Otherwise it would have been a foolish thing (like an act of faith) to promote a map to FP just because it looks right, not knowing what his subject is (political, historical, ...?), as well as the meaning of its symbology and lettering. The message of a map is transmited using cartographic symbols and written text. To read it (and of course to evaluate it) you have to know the exact meaning of both. I believe it is crisp clear that I am not contesting the multilingual nature of Commons (by the way, English is not my mother language) - Alvesgaspar 09:19, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose - the text is too small to read. And before anyone starts shouting about its being scalable, remember that for people who don't have svg-compatible software, it isn't. - MPF 14:51, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
