User:Glentamara@Glentamara: How is that not correct? The EEA agreement is open to EU members (countries are obliged to apply to become part of the EEA when they become EU members) and EFTA members. Blue is EU, and yes, green is indeed "övriga medlemsstater inom EES" but "EFTA medlemsstater" is more describing and also correct?

No, it is not, since Switzerland is also a member of EFTA. The current legend is correct and there is no reason to change it. --Glentamara (talk) 13:51, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Your map, keep it the way you want it but I do not agree that labeling the green countries "EFTA members" is not correct. This is how it is done for instance on this map https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:European_Economic_Area_Agreement.svg — Preceding unsigned comment added by Megyeye (talk • contribs) 14:04, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
But in that case there is a title saying "Participation in the European Economic Area:" and then one category is "EFTA member states participating" and the other one is "EFTA member states which signed but have not ratified the agreement". That's not the case here. --Glentamara (talk) 14:49, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
