Map of 79 Vesuvius eruption

  •  Support This is what I hope is a useful map I created in response to a request raised over at the English language Requested maps page. It is clean, crisp, and shows useful information concerning the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 AD. The names are in Latin, to allow the widest use -- at present, it is used in 25 encyclopedias in 43 different articles. There is also an English language version used in 10 articles. What do the assembled masses think? MapMaster 04:37, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose I'm not really keen on the temperature scale in the right top corner: 20 degrees Kelvin is rather cold isn't it? Just kidding, but it should be corrected to give the map a chance. I'm also not too fond of the 'dark cloud'. Couldn't you have used a more delineated approach? Lycaon 07:07, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Agree, it should be "Km". -- Lerdsuwa 15:37, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, it should be "km". --MichaelMaggs 18:11, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
