- {{Editprotected}} Hello. I would like to upload an updated map with Macedonia included, as it has been granted a full status several weeks ago. Here is the Resolution of approval from the Foundation. Thanks a lot --B. Jankuloski (talk) 02:49, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
Re-uploaded Please check if it is correct. Kwj2772 (msg) 04:03, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
- I notice that according to the world "map", showing blue coloring in regions with a WMF "chapter" organization, there is no chapter in North America. However, in the list of chapters, I noticed the Wikimedia New York Chapter. Might want to update whichever is incorrect. :-)
- It seems logic to make some special color for the US as a country of the Wikimedia Foundation itself. --eugrus (talk) 16:19, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
- Except WMF isn't a chapter, and doesn't serve for the US most of the functions that the other chapters serve for their own countries/regions. James F. (talk) 11:11, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- A update should be done : there is an Indian chapter now ! Trizek here or on fr:wp 22:53, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- Can someone update navy color for Venezuela? Thanks --Fhaidel (talk) 15:32, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
- Hi, can someone can update the map for Belgium?--Chandres (talk) 14:09, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
Confusing map
[edit]
I just discovered this map, and I must say it is a work of some confusion. That the United States is the same shade of gray as most of Africa makes no immediate sense (I understand that there is no "chapter" in the US, but we might want to think about having the US as a separate color than the non-chapter countries), and calling one set of colors "blue" and another set "teal" while having the rest in... what is it... "blue-gray"? Something? also makes no sense. I can't even detect any "teal" countries on the current map? If there are none, then maybe this part of the description should be removed until such time as there are. It does no good here otherwise. If you want to make a map like this, you need to use colors that are more distinct from each other than blue and teal, you need to account for the areas you do not intend to discuss like the blue-gray parts (you can ignore the blue oceans!), and you need to somehow distinguish between the US, where the organization is based, and Tanzania, where there is no current chapter, because the casual observer (i.e., me) thinks it must be some kind of mistake and that therefore your whole map is probably wrong somehow. Please consider some revisions. Thanks! KDS4444 (talk) 18:03, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
