Hello, Furfur,
Your are creating very nice maps, and I have noticed that some of these maps are in Chinese.
Can you add Chinese labels?
In File:Metro map of China.svg, Wenzhou needs to be added in because it has a metro network.
Please also check, if other Chinese cities with metro networks are also missing.
Here are sources:
If you can't, thank you anyway.
Yours sincerely, Maphobbyist (talk) 16:50, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
- Hello @Maphobbyist: ok, I will upload a map that includes Wenzhou. Please tell me if something else needs to be changed in this map. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 18:12, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, I don't know Chinese. I only realized that Wenzhou was missing, because of its geographical location. There might be other Chinese cities with metro networks which are missing.
- However all Chinese cities which have metro networks in service or under construction, are shown in the English language map File:Greater China Rapid Transit.svg which could help in locating missing cities in File:Metro map of China.svg, if there are any.
- Can you also update File:Greater China Rapid Transit.svg where only the color of the names and the dots of Urumqi, Xiamen, Shijiazhuang, Jinan, Guiyang, Lanzhou, Fuzhou, Taoyuan, Wenzhou, Nanning and Dongguan need to be changed from red (under construction) to green (operational). These cities' metro networks are in service.
- Sources:
- That will be all.
- @Maphobbyist: ok, done. Hopefully there are no mistakes ... --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 19:26, 2 August 2019 (UTC)
- No cities are missing and there are no mistakes. Thank you very much for the updates! Maphobbyist (talk) 19:43, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Hello
Since you had created a vector version of File:Yunnan admin.svg, I would like to ask for a favour, can you vectorize other provinces in PRC as mostly provinces are still in png form. And then, green colour is for city core district area while cyan is for en:County-level city, danke.*angys* (talk) 14:20, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
- Hello @*angys*: I really would like to do this, and in fact I also created maps of Anhui (安徽省) and Guangdong (广东省). However, it only makes sense to create SVG maps if you have a high quality raster image, to be used as a template. Regrettably, nearly all the images in the Commons are relatively low quality and not suitable for creating higher resolution SVG maps. Perhaps you know any good sources? Did you detect any errors in the green coloring? 祝好 --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 14:39, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
- Maybe yes, Anhui one got for Tongling city (at 8 and 16 as those enclaves are copper mineshaft), and Guangdong one should change some colour (you can compare with the older version)
- Fujian (File:Locator map of Fuqing.svg or File:China Fujian location map.svg)
- Hebei File:ChinaHebeiXingtai.svg
- Jiangxi File:Jiangxi.svg
- Xinjang File:China Xinjiang Kashgar.svg(refer to Xinjiang prfc map2.png)
- Tibet File:Tibet&neighbors Locator map.svg, some borders were outdated
- Gansu (mostly prefectures own its svg maps) Category:Maps of Gansu
- Hubei File:China Hubei location map.svg
- Hunan File:Hunan China map EN.svg
- Shandong File:China Shandong location map.svg
- Qinghai File:Hoh Xi-Karte.svg
- Jilin File:China Jilin Baishan.svg
Hope these files can help you.*angys* (talk) 16:18, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
- Hello @*angys*: I compared the Guangdong map with the older map, but could not detect any differences in coloring. Can you please give me a hint? And when it comes to Anhui: this is exactly what I mean. If you want to be precise and also display tiny enclaves correctly you need a high resolution map as a template. For example this map of Jilin is nice but does not have a very high resolution. I am not sure if it really would be an improvement, if I remade it as an SVG map. The details of the map are not getting better by this. Or, let's say Fujian: of course File:China Fujian location map.svg is a very fine map, but it does not contain prefecture borders. Using this map as a base I still would have to rely on low resolution maps such as this one. So the result would be a map of Fujian province with detailed and accurate outer borders but imprecise inner borders – a kind of pseudo precision.
But I have seen that User:Chk2011 is very active and has recently created nice SVG prefecture maps of Gansu. Perhaps you could also ask him/her if he/she is willing to create a map of Gansu province and possibly other provinces? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 17:11, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

Karte Map_France_1477-de.svg
Hallo Furfur. Du hattest 2010 die Karte von Frankreich im Jahre 1477 erstellt. Die ist auch sehr informativ, ich wollte nur auf zwei Kleinigkeiten hinweisen, die evtl. korrigiert werden müssen: Die Gft. Provence wurde zwar von einer Nebenlinie der Valois regiert, war aber 1477 noch Lehen des Heiligen Römischen Reiches - erst mit dem Tod des Grafen Charles fiel die Provence 1481 an die französische Krone und gehörte von da an nicht mehr zum Reich. Die rote Grenzlinie müsste für 1477 also westlich der Grafschaft gezogen werden (wobei wohl auch das päpstliche Venaissin korrekterweise nicht zu Frankreich gezählt werden dürfte, wohl aber das Fstm. Orange). Auf der anderen Seite gehörte das Roussillon von 1462 bis 1493 zu Frankreich, genau genommen als Pfandbesitz, war aber in jedem Fall französisch besetzt und kontrolliert. --Proofreader (talk) 15:02, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
- Hallo Proofreader, vielen Dank für das genaue Hinsehen. Ich bin nicht der eigentliche Autor der Karte (darauf hatte ich in der Dateibeschreibung hingeweisen), sondern das ist wohl Benutzer ZigeunerAlt, der aber wohl nicht mehr aktiv ist. Seine Karte beruhte auf der Karte File:France XVe siècle.jpg. Diese Karte wiederum ist nur zeitlich unscharf gekennzeichnet als “Frankreich im späten 15. Jahrhundert”. Auf dieser Karte heißt es, dass die Provence 1486 an Frankreich kam. Das Venaissin sollte in der Tat aus Frankreich ausgegliedert werden. Das Roussillon finde ich eigentlich durch die blaue Schraffur hinreichend gut charakterisiert. Ganz blau färben würde ich es nicht, da es ja nur Pfandbesitz war und nicht eigentlicher Teil der Krondomäne. Vielleicht könnte man das Problem mit der Provence so lösen, dass die Datei umbenannnt wird in Map France 1498-de.svg (im Artikel über die Provence heißt es, dass die Provence 1498 Teil der Krondomäne wurde). --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 18:11, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

Sorry to bother you again, so soon after the last request. Can you add and/or color Macau in File:Metro map of China.svg and File:Greater China Rapid Transit.svg because it was opened to service on 10 December 2019.

- @EnTerbury: De facto werden ja praktisch keine Ansprüche mehr auf das Festland allzu laut erhoben. Die Situation ist ja mittlerweile so dass die ROC um ihre eigene Existenz fürchten muss, da sie von der VRC bansprucht wird. Ganz interessant finde ich z. B. diese Karte aus dem Jahr 1979. Da sind tatsächlich noch alle damals de jure bestehenden Ansprüche eingezeichnet. Etliche Territorialansprüche (z.

Hallo Furfur,
eine sehr schöne Karte! https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reichskreis#/media/Datei:Map_of_the_Imperial_Circles_(1560)-de.svg
Im Text und in der Karte zum Schwäbischen Kreis gibt es allerdings folgenden Unterschied: "Die bedeutendsten Exklaven hingegen lagen .. in Vorarlberg und in Liechtenstein.", siehe https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwäbischer_Reichskreis
Kannst Du das in Deiner Karte entsprechend ändern? --2001:16B8:2260:3200:354B:2590:F742:1141 08:25, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

die Karte ist nicht eigentlich von mir. Ich bin nur der Übersetzer, insofern muss ganz überwiegend das Lob an den eigentlichen Ersteller Sir Ian weitergegeben werden. Die Karte ist in den Teritorialgrenzen sicher recht grob und nicht sehr genau. Wahrscheinlich ließen sich noch weitere Detailfehler finden. Aber gut dass Du mich auf diese Karte (auch von Sir Iain) hinweist. Die werde ich mal als Basis nehmen, eine detailliertere Karte der Reichskreise zu erstellen.

I am also a little bit disappointed that the Bangladesh Election Commission (ECB) meanwhile only publishes its documents in Bengali language whch I cannot read.

- Hello @EhsanAhmed: I thought about the map and could make it using the relatively low-resolution map on page 2 in this election report as a template. However there is the problem that it is impossible to decifer the numbers of the eight Constituencies of Dhaka City (numbers 183–190, Dhaka-4 to Dhaka-11). Could you find out which constituency on this map has which number? This certainly involves some recherche work, maybe at the web site of the Bangladesh Election Commission. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 23:28, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

I primarily need the following informations from 1991: (1) the primary winner party of each of the 300 constituencies, and (2) the infomation in whcih constituencies were by-elections and which party won in which constituency in the by-elections.--Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 17:20, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

die Karte der Erststimmenmehrheiten für die BTW 1990 ist fehlerhaft. Der BT-Wahlkreis 209 Rosenheim (heute 222) hat keine Mehrheit für die SPD (weder Erst- noch Zweitstimmenanteil). Die Daten des Bundeswahlleiters sprechen da eine deutliche Sprache:

@Furfur: PEPSU Map
Dear Furfur,
I had noticed that you uploaded the map which shows the reorganization of PEPSU into Punjab, Haryana and Himachal between 1951 and 1956. I was wondering what the source of this information was, also whether this was made out of a shp file with geo coordinates, would appreciate if you wrote back! Thanks.

- Hello C.S.Abishek,
- the incorporation of entire P.E.P.S.U. into Punjab was one of the decisions taken in the States Reorganisation Act 1956, and no, this map is not made out of a shp file with geo coordinates.

Map Ethnien_in_Pakistan_1980
Hi @Furfur, thanks for your amazing maps. On the map mentioned in the headline and here https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/92/Ethnien_in_Pakistan_1980.svg there is only a simple error in the legend. There is twice "100 km", which results that the whole conversion from miles in kilometers is wrong after the first 100. So the second 100 have to be 200, 200 to 300 and 300 to 400. Lots of greets and best wishes

Hello there - I notice that you've made a vectorized version of File:Britain 802.jpg. It's good, but it retains some of the errors that were on the original map, and I thought I should let you know in case you wanted to correct them. "Nectansinere" should be Nechtansmere, "Cuerwent" should be Caerwent, "Witby" should be Whitby, "Tretford" should be Thetford, "Pevensev" should be Pevensey, "Bamborough" should be Bamburgh, and "Loidis" should be Leeds. Additionally, Picts and Scots should not be listed as subsets of the Britons, since they were three distinct peoples. Zacwill (talk) 23:45, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hello Zacwill, you are right and thank you for notifying. I will correct the file. Maybe I should also convert the paths to text. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 01:04, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hello Zacwill, I finally had some time to redo the file. The errors are now eliminated (hopefully) and all the text is now editable, such that the file can now be easily translated to other languages. Greetings --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 12:27, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hello and Happy New Year! The file looks much better without all the spelling mistakes, but there are still problems with the way the Celtic peoples are classified. Ireland and Dalriada should be in the Skoten category, and Pictland should be marked Pikten. (The Picts were later assimilated by the Scots of Dalriada and brought into the Kingdom of Scotland, but at this point in history they were still a distinct people.) Zacwill (talk) 16:18, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
- "Staaten der Scoten" is my error. I intended "Staaten der Pikten". You mean, the Celts of Ireland/Dalriada should be distinguished from those in Wales? An regarding Piktland: "Pikten" would be better, because there was no unified Piktish state? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 16:31, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
- ... and I noticed that West Wales (Cornwall) is now hatched in the source file, which was not the case when I made the derivative ... I have now uploaded a new version. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 17:57, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
- I should clarify. I don't know how familiar you are with British history, so I hope you'll forgive me if I patronise you by telling you things you already know. The Picts, Scots, and Britons – the three indigenous peoples of the British Isles at the time of the Anglo-Saxon invasion – are all considered "Celts", but were only distantly related to each other and spoke mutually incomprehensible languages. The Picts lived in most of what is now Scotland, which was then called Pictland; the Scots or Gaels lived in Ireland and on the western coast of Scotland, called Dalriada; and the Britons lived across the remainder of Great Britain, but were pushed into the peripheral regions of Strathclyde, Wales, and Cornwall (or "West Wales") after the Anglo-Saxons' arrival. Ideally these three peoples should each be distinguished on the map rather than grouped together in supersets that give a false impression of cultural and linguistic unity. I didn't mean to object to the label Pictland, I was trying to say that there should be a Pictish category in the key – as well as a Scottish and a British one. Zacwill (talk) 00:11, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Zacwill, I am somewhat familiar with British history but in one respect I am not sure: I have also read the opinion that the original Picts were no Celts and spoke a proto-Indo-European language that is not known because no written sources exist. Later on the Picts were assimilated by the Celts who were in turn then partially displaced and/or assimilated by Scandinavian and Anglo-Saxon invaders (here is a web source). I thought that for this reason you wanted my to display Pictland in a different color than the Celtic regions. I understand that you also want to make a difference between the Celts of Ireland/Dalriada and Wales/West Wales. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 10:01, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- You can read more on this in the Pictish language article. Like you said, there are almost no records of their language for us to analyse, but based on the scraps that we do have the majority opinion these days is that they spoke an "Insular Celtic" language. Pictish place-names like Aberdeen, for example, contain elements that have obvious Welsh cognates (aber means "river mouth" in Welsh and is also found in Welsh place-names like Abertawe). Zacwill (talk) 16:45, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Yes I had a look at this article, but I must say that I find it a little bit one-sided in it's statement "This is now a minority view, if not completely abandoned.". When one looks at the newer scientfic literature there seem to be still some discussions around this topic and I am not sure if the question is so clearly answered as this article suggests. I think I will revert the file to the original inscription "Britons, Scots and Picts". This avoids discussions. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 19:18, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- As I've been trying to say since I started this discussion, the most sensible and uncontroversial solution would be to group each people separately, since this would avoid the question of categorisation completely. Zacwill (talk) 20:49, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hello, just to let you know, the map names the Isle of Wight as the Isle of Wright. Also, I know very little German, but according to Wiktionary there are German names for the likes of Northumbria and East Anglia, although I do not know if these are merely artificial literalisms/metaphrases, or if they would be used by German speakers familiar with the locations. --Gonefishing (talk) 23:12, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Gonefishing: you are right. I corrected the Isle of Wight. Names like "Northumbrien" or "Ostanglien" are not very common nowadays. You may find them sometimes in the older literature but now this is uncommon and sounds a bit antique. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 01:57, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Zacwill: I redid the map but I am still unsure about the colors. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 01:57, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- More distinct colours would probably aid clarity, but it's good to see that the different peoples are properly distinguished now – although it looks like you may have mislabelled Strathclyde as a Scottish state instead of a British one. That and the unnecessary removal of the label Piktland are the only problems I have with the map now. Zacwill (talk) 17:17, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Zacwill: Ok, I did not realise that Strathclyde was a British state. Hopefully it is now correct. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 19:40, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- That looks great. One last comment, I promise I won't bother you any more after this. The Isle of Man was inhabited by Scots or Gaels and so should be the same colour as Ireland and Dalriada. Zacwill (talk) 19:48, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Zacwill: No, no, thank you for your help. The map should be as correct as possible and I will definitively try to correct any errors. I will change the Isle of Man. I am still not sure about Cornwall. I know that Cornish was the local language but was it under Saxon or under British rule at the time? Should it be displayed hatched? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 19:54, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- I understand that Cornwall was in a transitional period at this point in history, from an independent kingdom to a West Saxon domain (more info on that can be found here). Showing it hatched makes sense. Zacwill (talk) 20:27, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

Issues with some assembly constituency maps of India
@Furfur: Thank you for creating all the assembly constituency maps for Indian states! However, there are issues on a few maps. For instance on the Rajasthan assembly constituency map here Jaipur constituencies (50-55) are not included at all. And on the Manipur map here boundaries of the Imphal Valley constituencies do not match that in the Electoral Commission maps here, which seems to be an authoritative source. Where does the data for your assembly constituency maps come from? C1MM (talk) 05:19, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- @C1MM: Hmm, thank you for notifying. I also derived these maps from official sources. But I will have a closer look at these issues. Maybe I simply overlooked the Jaipur constituencies because they are so small. And regarding Manipur: I guess that my template map did not have such a high resolution, as those maps from the Chief Electoral Officer of Manipur. But I will review these issues and probably come up with more accurate maps within the next days.--Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 15:52, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Furfur: Thanks! Some other issues I noticed: Andhra Pradesh and Telangana constituency maps do not take into account the fact that a small portion of Telangana's Khammam district was transferred to Andhra Pradesh for the Polavaram project (you can see what this looks like for ap here, and similarly Telangana here). Also constituencies 18-25 on the Jammu and Kashmir map aren't delineated. Can you possibly update those constituencies as well? And in Tamil Nadu, constituency 169 should be merged with the small piece of land without a number on it directly to the left: it is a single constituency - you can see that here.

File:Kinmen.svg requires updating
Hi Furfur,
Thank you for your contributions to Commons. I noticed File:Kinmen.svg is out of date. As it is written on the Kinmen (Quemoy) page, as of March 2021 [2], the government of the Republic of China (Taiwan) officially claims the Dadeng/Tateng Islands as part of Kinmen County because Dadeng/Tateng Islands were part of the ROC's Kinmen County before CCP takeover of the Dadeng/Tateng Islands in October 1949. That being the case, this map would ideally include the Dadeng/Tateng Islands in some capacity. I suggest something perhaps as simple as a text note on the map (maybe in italics) in the general vicinity where the Dadeng/Tateng Islands are located saying that the ROC (Taiwan) claims them. Another more complex alternative would have a full map of all of the islands in the Dadeng/Tateng Islands claimed by the ROC (Taiwan) as part of Kinmen, perhaps colored with striped lines indicating that they are claimed by the ROC (Taiwan) but are not under ROC (Taiwan) administration. Could you update it? Thanks again. Geographyinitiative (talk) 17:19, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
a few questions about voting res2758.svg
@Furfur:
Hi there Furfur,
Great work on the map representing the voting situation on resolution 2758!
I'm working on a thesis with the same subject. I thought a map would be a clever way to demonstrate the geopolitical allocation of votes, but I'm afraid I'm not all too experienced in drawing them. If I were to use the map you've uploaded here, how should I credit you? These might seem as silly questions, but I'm unfamiliar with wikipedia customs. I'll clarify my intentions below:
I intend to modify the map a bit to suit my needs. I'd also use the same template to demonstrate the voting situation on the other draft resolutions proposed at the same plenary sessions.
I'm also interested in hearing about your process. What references did you use to get the state borders right, for example?
Thank you for your work and your time!
All the best

File:Ottoman empire de.svg
Moin @Furfur: bei der Karte File:Ottoman empire de.svg gibt es ein paar Unstimmigkeiten. Denn de:Rumelien und Anatolien sind gleich zu setzten. Was ist mit Mazedonien gemeint? die Region Ma‚‚‚k‘‘‘edonien (Welche, die im Mittelalter, als sie von den Osmanen erobert wurde -> diese lag nämlich woanders de:Makedonien (byzantinisches Thema) oder der heutige Staat Nordmazedonien? Vammpi (talk) 07:13, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hallo @Vammpi: warum sollten Rumelien und Anatolien gleichzusetzen sein? Die Begriffe Mazedonien und Makedonien wurden in der Vergangenheit weitgehend deckungsgleich gebraucht. Ich könnte das ändern. Das scheint mir aber nicht zwingend notwendig. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 09:48, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
- Es werden hier denke ich viele Sachen zusammen gemixt. Als Rumelien wurden alle (südost)europäische Teile des Osm. Reiches genannt -> auf diese Territorien entstanden die heutigen Staaten Albanien, Griechenland, Bulgarien etc.... Als Anatolien die Territorien in Kleinasien. Innerhalb Rumelien waren die geographische Regionen Thrakien, Moesien, Thessalien, etc... Es sei denn Du meinst die Provinz de:Ostrumelien die nach 1878 geschaffen wurde.
- Und bei Mazedonien handelt es sich um das der Antike, Makedonien wiederum das der Osmanen und Gegenwart, der Staat aber heißt dann seit ein paar Jahren wiederum Nordmazedonien. Ab wann die Region Makedonien den Antikennamen hat ist umstritten, evtl. seit der Romantik. Deswegen war ja der jahrelange Streit zwischen MZ und GR. Und die Region im Mittelalter, nun ja evtl. sogar Bulgarien -denn da war ein Westbulgarisches Reich. Aus dem Makedonien des Mittelalters, das wesentlich westlich und in der Nähe von Istanbul lag, stammt ein ganze byzantinische Kaiser Dynastie
- Wie dem auch sei. Vielleicht kann man durch kursiv, oder unterschiedliche Textgröße zwischen Osmanische Provinzen, Geographische Regionen und heutige Staaten eine bessere Unterscheidung, bzw. Einteilung in der Karte erziehen. Vammpi (talk) 20:32, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Vammpi: Jetzt verstehe ich besser was Du meinst. Ich dachte, Du meintest, das Anatolien und Rumelien dasselbe seien. Die Karte ist ja nicht von mir, sondern ich habe sie nur übersetzt. Die Beschriftungen sind eine Mischung aus osmanischen Provinznamen und geografischen Bezeichnungen. Der Begriff „Rumelien“ scheint mir aber auch nicht ganz scharf und einheitlich definiert. Einerseits bezeichnet er die europäischen Gebiete des Osmanischen Reiches, andererseits nur ein umgrenztes Gebiet im heutigen Bulgarien. Ich werde die Karte etwas anpassen. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 20:43, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Why "_de" if it's in English? It should either be renamed "_en" or translated to Deutsch. —capmo (talk) 17:52, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Hallo capmo, you are right, that currently there is little German in this file. In the first version of the file I used the German "Stadt" for City, but in the revised version I avoided this and also did not use "City". So, at the moment I would describe this file as multilingual. These are simply the names of the localities and administrative units. I will rename the file. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 18:08, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

- The four major Cities, Blantyre, Mzumba, Lilongwe and Zomba seem to have obtained district-like status (in the official statistics they are counted as districts). I think it is too much for me to adjust all these articles. That's the task for the users who maintain these articles. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 06:25, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

The labelling of the genome chart contains an error: It should read N (Nucleocapsid) in place ORF10. ORF10 is not really in the chart and can be omitted as it is not coding a protein (despite being very stable against mutations).

Hallo Furfur,
wenn ich's richtig sehe, sind auf der Hauptkarte die Nummern der beiden Stuttgarter Wahlkreise vertauscht. Auf der Detailkarte rechts stimmen sie. Die Einfärbung der Wahlkreise ist hingegen in beiden Fällen falsch: Die Grünen mit Cem Özdemir haben das Direktmandat in Stuttgart I (258) gewonnen, das ist der südwestliche der beiden Wahlkreise; die CDU mit Maximilian Mörseburg hat Stuttgart II (259) gewonnen, das ist der nordöstliche Wahlkreis. Gruß --Rosenzweig τ 08:37, 2 October 2021 (UTC)

- Danke. Bei 299 Wahlkreisen kann schon mal was schiefgehen, und verglichen mit dem Wahlchaos in Berlin ist das ja wirklich eine Kleinigkeit ;-) Gruß --Rosenzweig τ 12:39, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Rosenzweig: Ja, das Wahlchaos in Berlin ... das stimmt schon. Aber eines muss man da anerkennen: die Webseite der Berliner Wahlleiterin bzw. -behörde ist wirklich exzellent: minimalistisch ohne Schnickschnack programmiert, deswegen laden die Webseiten auch sehr schnell, dazu sehr übersichtlich und sortiert aufgebaut. Das gefällt mir sehr gut. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 12:45, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hallo Furfur, ich würde gerne auch so, wie Du das letztens mit den Karten des Wahlatlas machtest, Grafiken von Websiten für die Wikipedia übernehmen. Doch mein bisher letztens Ergebnis, das ich mit adobe photoshop zustande gebracht habe, finde ich nicht serh überzeugend. Gibt es hier bzw. kennst Du eine Anleitung für die Übernahme von externen Grafiken? Oder wenn Dir das zu viel Aufwand ist, mit welchem Programm schneidest Du die Grafiken aus und füllst den Hintergrund auf? Gruß, ----LennBr (talk) 02:10, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hallo @LennBr: wenn Du z. B. hochauflösende Vektorgrafiken erzeugen willst, benötigst Du entweder Adobe Illustrator oder Inkscape. Ich verwende Illustrator und bin damit im wesentlichen eigentlich sehr zufrieden. Das ist allerdings kostenpflichtig (habe ein spezielles Abo, benötige das Programm auch beruflich). Inkscape ist ein freies Programm und sicher vom Potential her auch nicht schlecht, ich hoffe auch, dass es immer weiter entwickelt wird (spende dafür auch gelegentlich), aber was mich daran stört, ist, dass es immer noch so eine Microsoft-Windows-artige Benutzeroberfläche hat, an die ich mich nicht gewöhnen kann. Mit Photoshop bist Du ja auch sehr hochkarätig ausgestattet, aber das ist natürlich ein Programm zur Erstellung von Rastergrafiken (was wiederum Illustrator & Co nicht so können). Es kommt halt immer darauf an, was Du genau machen möchtest.
Bei dem von Dir erwähnten Beispiel kannst Du das Logo von der Webseite direkt als svg-Datei abspeichern ... da ist es ganz einfach. Gruß --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 07:17, 6 October 2021 (UTC)- Danke nochmal für die Rückmeldung. Wie lädst Du die Grafik, nachdem Du diese in einem neuen Tab geöffnet hast, runter?

- @LennBr: Wenn ich die SVG-Datei z. B. in einem neuen Tab geöffnet habe, speichere ich sie einfach aus dem Webbrowser heraus als .svg-Datei. Ich benutze Apple OS. Es kann sein, dass es unter MS Windows etwas anders ist. Nach dem Abspeichern kann man sie dann separat mit Illustrator oder Inkscape öffnen und bearbeiten. Gruß --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 15:04, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

- ...Hast Du das auf Windows 10 ausprobiert? Weil bei mir sieht das so wie auf dem angefügten Bild (wo kein "Speichern unter vorhanden ist") aus. Und wenn ich auf "Bildschirmphoto aufnehmen" klicke erscheint die Firefox-Meldung, dass der Tab keine Standard-Website ist und ein Bildschirmphoto daher nicht möglich ist...Ich glaub ich habe es nun aber, während des Schreibens dieses Kommentars, rausgefunden. Denn wenn ich auf "Seite Speichern unter" klicke, erscheint tatsächlich die möglichkeit, die SVG:Datei runterzuladen. Hatte dies bisher komplett ignoriert, weil das was Firefox als "Seite speichern unter" bezeichnet, sich nicht für mich nach "Bild Speichern unter" anhört. Nun...kleine Schritte sind auch Schritte. Vielleicht schaffe ich es bei diesem Tempo in diesem Jahr noch, mal ein Logo mit Adoe Illustrator bearbeitet zu haben.

Ghanaian maps
Hello! How are you? Trying to unify criteria of the maps of the African elections I decided to eliminate the headings in the maps of the Ghanaian elections. (Example) I would like to merge the maps you made without header. I don't know if there is a procedure or we just delete one and rename the other. Can you help me with that?--FelipeRev (talk) 22:41, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
Hello FelipeRev, I think I only made one or two Ghanaian maps (or better to say I copied your map and eliminated the heading), not more. I would appreciate language-neutral maps (at least for Latin script). A heading is not necessary. The map can be explained in the image legend.

Kartensuchende glücklicher machen, Commons-Hamster vor Überlastung schützen
Hallo Furfur, mit der Bearbeitung vorhin wollte ich unsere Leser*innen in minimalchen glücklicher machen, da dies jedoch fast alle Karten projektweit betrifft, nun einige ergänzende Gedanken: Obwohl manche der Commons-Karten brutal häufig aufgerufen werden (ein wenig Aufrufzahlen steigern is ja okay ... wenn die Commons-Hamster das aushalten, dann könnte auch eine ergänzende, vielleicht sogar etwas erläuterte, direkte Aufrufmöglichkeit von OSM, WikiMiniatlas und Co in der description helfen!), wenn ich einen Link zu den in der Commons-Search inzwischen kaum noch auffindbaren Common-Galerien setze, dann gibt es nur geringfügig häufigere Besuche (leider). Die Erklärung könnte sein, dass in den Wikipedia-Artikeln ja "Karte" steht, die versteckten Online-Karten unter "Koordinaten" jedoch so nicht gefunden werden. Vielleicht wäre eine Lösung, einen kryptischen Kurzhinweis in die Wikipedia-Vorlage zu setzen, etwa mit "↑" nach "Karte", und die ausführlichere, didaktisch auch für Kinderchen, die Omis und Öpis aufbereitete Erklärung zur Kartensuche und die Möglichkeiten, die durch den Wechsel ins Schwesterprojekt Commons sich nun eröffnet haben (Annotations, Medienseiten, Infos zu Karten-Autor*innen und FotografInnen, Bildersuche) direkt bei der Karte zu erläutern.

Hi Furfur, I have seen your work on Indian election result SVG maps. I have seen your recent image File:2022 Uttar Pradesh Election.svg. You have done a great work in this file too. Currently I am also working on the same topic. So could you please tell me that how are you creating these maps and which tool you are using?--Junior Jumper (formerly Tæ) 09:43, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Junior Jumper, yes of course. Nice to see that you are interested in this topic. I am using Adobe Illustrator. I have to pay for this, so this will probably not so interesting for you. But I think that Inkscape (Freeware) should do just the same work. You can also use a simple text editor. The latter is useful when you simply want to change text items or change their position on the map. It is simply a matter of practise that you get used to such tools.
- Most importantly, you should always save a copy of your work in case you want to revert some of your changes.
- For creating maps you have to either draw them by yourself, or find and use a suitable high-quality template (e. g. an editable pdf file) and modify it according to your needs. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 10:15, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

Nigerian election maps
Hi, I've been following your maps for while now and wanted to ask if you would consider making some Nigerian election maps. As one of the world's biggest democracies, it would be great for many Nigerian election pages to have maps for the first time.

Watercheetah99 (talk) 11:29, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Watercheetah99, I absolutely agree that Nigeria as the most populous African state deserves good and high-quality election maps.

If you like, you can tell me your wishes and suggestions ... --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 10:20, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- okay great, here are the suggestions: For gubernatorial elections, it depends as the 2021 Anambra State gubernatorial election would be the easiest and most straightforward to map as I put LGA results on the Wiki page. Seven other gubernatorial elections also have results on news sites: 2020 Ondo (results), 2020 Edo (results), 2019 Bayelsa (results), 2019 Kogi (results), [2019 Yobe] (results), 2019 Cross River (results), and 2017 Anambra (results). You could also make other maps: ones for gubernatorial election overview pages (2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023) like the ones on United States gubernatorial elections results map.svg American pages and/or current situation maps for the House (current members), Senate (current members), or Governor's offices (current list).

- Hallo 27.32.226.253, what kind of election maps do you want to create (Zimbabwe or some other country?) und what tools are you using? The most important thing is that you first have to look for high-quality maps that you could use as a template. There is no recipe how and where to find them, one has to search the internet. Often you can find maps on the website of the respectie Election Commission.
- Once you have a map you can make a derivative from it. I always prefer to work with SVG maps because they can be easily modified. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 13:11, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

- Well, you could try to get used to Inkscape, which is a freely available program and has great potentials. But it certainly needs some practice. You could download an existing SVG map and try to modify it (e. g. recolouring it, etc.). --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 11:54, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

Hallo Furfur, die von dir als Vorlage genommene Karte ist ziemlich zweifelhaft:
- Der Ordensstaat war nicht Teil des HRR (Das hatte ein Papst verboten!)
- Das HRR bestand aus
- dem nördlichen Reichsteil (Deutschland und Böhmen)
- dem Reichsburgund, zu dem bis 1481 auch die Provence gehörte
- Reichsitalien (Italien nördlich des Kirchenstaates)
- Die Provence gehört erst seit 1481 zu Frankreich

Very late answer
Ganz zufällig sah ich bei Derived/Derivative deine Frage von 2021
- I still don't fully understand the usage of "by". Is it possible to specify multiple authors of a file – e.g., in case of file that has been uploaded by user1, but subsequently heavily modified by user2 und user3 afterwards? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 15:56, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
Ist diese Frage immer noch offen? Jedenfalls kann immer wo eine user-Angabe sein kann, also bei Author= oder by= oder editor= oder Based oder Attrib oder AutVec etc. statt nur eines users genauso auch eine Userlist angegeben werden, wenn du willst mit hunderten usern.
Das ist so wie die Filelist (bei der wiederum bei jeder Datei auch eine Userlist angebbar ist ...).
Es ist sehr fraglich ob es sinnvoll ist in der Dateibeschreibung mehrere Autoren anzugeben - da sollte immer der erste stehen, alle anderen sind aus der upload history ersichtlich; nur in Sonderfällen mag es hilfreich sein. Jedenfalls, möglich ist es.
Wenn es notwendig ist User-Angaben zu modifizieren (zB in anderer Wikipedia, nur in ~commonswiki, oder ohne link etc.) wird es komplizierter, aber auch das ist machbar. Filelist und Userlist sind unbegrenzt verschachtelbar — aber da wird es schnell vollends unübersichtlich ! -- sarang♥사랑 07:30, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

Nagaland assembly map
Hi. There is a minor error in "File:Wahlkreise zur Vidhan Sabha von Nagaland.svg" created by you. Only constituency No. 1 is non-ST constituency, all other constituencies are reserved for ST. See 1. Could you rectify it? Thanks. Dhruv edits (talk) 16:00, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
- Hello @Dhruv edits: I am not sure if this is an error. At the time, when I uploaded this map in 2015 these constituencies perhaps were non-ST constituences. Unfortunately I can't access the website of the Indian Election Commission https://eci.gov.in. For several years it has become increasingly difficult for people residing outside India to access this website. While the Election Commission of India had a very nice website that permitted the download of PDF election results etc. it became increasingly complicated to access any results over the years and now it appears to be completely impossible. This is really a pity and absolutely annoying! I do not see any sense in this secretiveness. It almost appears if they have to hide something. In contrast, they should try to be as transparent as possible to the world. This intransparency damages Indias reputation as a democracy in the world. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 23:27, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

Fixing typo for Formosan languages de.svg
Hello @Furfur! Recently I stumbled upon your German translation of the Formosan languages map. There was a small typo where <Puyuma> was spelled as <Puyama>. It was present in the earlier English version which I think was where you based your version. I then forgot that I could have messaged you instead to fix it and so I ended up editing it myself.

Finding source of Bangladesh constituencies
Dear @Furfur, first of all congratulations for your great work here on Wikipedia pages! I am a researcher, trying to create a GIS map of the electoral constituencies of Bangladesh used in the 2008 and 2014 elections. Searching on Wikipedia, you seem to have created an illustrative map using materials from the Electoral Commission of Bangladesh. I am reaching out to ask if you could make those available somehow (via email, upload link, I could send a dropbox link, etc). I tried contacting the Electoral Commission, but with no luck. Also, in the Wikipedia page for the constituencies of Bangladesh there is an old link to a page that contained the official map images of the constituencies as of 2008. However, that page is a web-archive and the images are gone. It would be of tremendous help to me if you could locate those old files in your drive and make them available - and of course I would gladly acknowledge your help in my work. Thank you! 2601:400:C202:D5F0:8ED2:953F:5031:1978 21:03, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hello User:2601:400:C202:D5F0:8ED2:953F:5031:1978, that is certainly a nice project and I would like to support it. I don't have any high resolution maps of single constituencies as they were probaby included in the above old link. I can have a look for pdf maps but I don’t think they will have a higher resolution than the svg maps which I uploaded. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 06:13, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Fragen zur Karte "Sprachen in Elsass-Lothringen"
Hallo @Furfur, ich habe ein paar Fragen zur (ausgezeichneten!) Karte https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sprachen_in_Elsass-Lothringen.svg
1) Ich würde gerne nachvollziehen, welche Orte entlang den Dialektgrenzen jeweils zu dem einen oder zu dem anderen Dialekt gehören. Gemeindegrenzen sind ja eingezeichnet, aber nur große Städte beschriftet. Gibt es eine Karte die Du als Grundlage für die Gemeindegrenzen verwendet hast, in der alle Ortsnamen eingetragen sind? 2) Warum "Weissenburg" und nicht "Weißenburg"? 3) Ich bin verwundert, für den äußersten Nordwesten Lothringens die Dialektbezeichnung "luxemburgisch" zu sehen - noch dazu im historischen Kontext. Ist das nicht einfach ein weiterer Teil von "moselfränkisch" (siehe auch: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moselfränkische_Dialekte )? Oberschwabe01 (talk) 08:22, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hallo Oberschwabe01, vielen Dank für den genauen Blick auf die Karte. Es ist schon lange her, dass ich die hochgeladen habe, und deswegen weiß ich die Details nicht mehr. Ich meine mich aber zu erinnern, eine französische Karte etwa aus den 1880ern als Vorlage gehabt zu haben (die Gemeindegrenzen sind erstaunlicherweise meist identisch geblieben). Ich sehe mich nochmal um. „Luxemburgisch“ und „Weissenburg“ habe ich geändert. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 09:37, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- ... habe hier mal etwas gefunden: Die Verbreitung der französischen Muttersprache in den Gemeinden Elsass-Lothringens : nach der Volkszâhlung am 1 Dezember 1910 – eine sehr schöne alte Karte – ich weiß aber nicht, ob es die ist, auf die ich mich damals bezogen habe. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 13:18, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hervorragend, vielen Dank für den Link! Mir sind beim Studieren dieser alten Karte bislang drei Dinge aufgefallen:
- 1) Saint-Louis wird dort als Sankt Ludwig bezeichnet. Scheint die übliche deutsche Bezeichnung zu sein: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-Louis_%28Haut-Rhin%29
- 2) Ich habe ganz im Norden vom Elsaß eine Abweichung bei der Gemeindegrenze von Altenstadt entdeckt: Auf der alten Karte ist das Gemeindegebiet viel größer und grenzt im Norden an die Pfalz, das Gebiet von Weißenburg ist entsprechend kleiner.
- 3) Gleich rechts danaben: Schleithal grenzt in der alten Karte an keiner Stelle an die Pfalz, das Gemeindegebiet von Altenstadt hat entlang der Grenze zur Pfalz einen Zipfel nach Osten und grenzt somit an Salmbach
- Abschließend noch eine Frage: Welche Anwendung verwendest Du, um Karten zu erstellen? 2001:9E8:AB2F:B700:9EA:E2F7:9BED:93F4 18:00, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hallo 2001:9E8:AB2F:B700:9EA:E2F7:9BED:93F4, die Karte soll nicht die aktuellen Gemeindegrenzen wiedergeben. Das wäre nicht sinnvoll. Die Karte müsste ja ständig aktualisiert werden. Letztlich geht es um das Sprachgebiet. Bei Gemeinden, die ohnehin ganz im deutschen Sprachgebiet liegen, sind die Gemeindegrenzen bei dieser Fragestellung dann nicht von Belang. Die alten Gemeindegrenzen von 1910 nachzubilden habe ich nicht den Ehrgeiz und die Energie. Ich verwende Adobe Illustrator. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 21:30, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

Zimbabwe Constituency Map
Hello! I think you've done amazing work on the Zimbabwe Constituency Map for the 2018 elections. It is amazing. I was wondering whether you had any interest in collaborating to produce an updated version for the 2023 boundaries, which have changed slightly from 2018? I guess what I had in mind were sort of three blank maps of Zimbabwe, one showing the Provinces, another showing the Districts and a third with the National Assembly boundaries, which could be saved on Wikipedia as templates, but which others could use in the future for similar tasks. Ideally it would be something that someone with very little knowledge of something like Inkscape could click on a Province/District/Constituency and simply change the colour to what it needs to be. My artistic abilities are very limited and it is not something I could create from scratch so I'd need to look to other, more experienced users to help in this regard. There is a large PDF file with the boundaries available here but annoyingly they all overlap, which makes it a bit more of a challenge to read. Let me know what you think of this idea... Mangwanani (talk) 14:39, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Mangwanani, I would very much like to make a new map showing the results of the 2023 election, but I could not find any detailed results yet. But a clickable map is beyond my capabilities (and my time budget). Thank you for the link but I think that the constituency boundaries have not changed since the last election or has there be a new delimitation? I would therefore simply use the old map and recolorize it new. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 15:01, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Forfar, Thanks for the fast reply! There was a new delimitation which resulted in a bit of moving around with the Constituency boundaries so they have changed slightly.
- I don't think I explained what I meant by clickable very well. I did not mean interactive at all. There is no need for anything that complicated. All I meant was a blank (but 2023 updated) version of the map you have already created. In fact, what I wanted the map to be able to do, I have realised yours already does - so ignore what I've written before. Is it possible for you to adapt your map that exists already to show the Provinces in a way that is neater than my bad tracing attempt, and also a third map that shows simply the district boundaries as seen here without the names on it? I don't think I've explained myself very well - but I am just looking for blank maps that show the boundaries clearly, that someone could later download to Inkscape and colour in the results as they come in.... Mangwanani (talk) 15:51, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Mangwanani, unfortunately I am unable to access the link with the pdf. I always get a timeout. Have you downloaded the pdf? If so, could you please upload it to the Commons so that I can access it for creating a map? You can delete it afterwards. I could create a district map. I found a suitable template from 2018. But in this template many urban areas (Beitbridge Urban, Hwange Urban, Shurugwi Town, Gwanda Urban, Kwekwe, etc.) are drawn as if they were not part of their districts. Is this correct? Should I integrate them into the districts and make the map ais here? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 22:28, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
- It does seem the website has been having some issues. I've found the same maps here also. This document has the official districts on it also, so that should answer your question above about the urban areas and where they truly belong. Once again - thank you thank you thank you! Mangwanani (talk) 17:23, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Mangwanani, thank yo very much for this high quality map. I will try my best but it will take a little bit of time ... But I also need the constituency results (the party affiliation of the winners). Do you know a reliable source for this? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 19:12, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
- The final results are still being tabulated/collated, though this website has quite an accurate reflection of what we know already (with a couple missing). If you're able to make a blank map in the meantime to upload to the Commons as a resource for people to use for other demonstrative purposes, not just the 2023 election, I know many people would be very grateful. I would love, in time, to use such a blank map to update the Zimbabwean Constituency page to look more like the British Constituency page with all the related data and information. Also, if you made just one of the whole of Zimbabwe, I'd be happy to adapt it to create SVG files of the Provinces broken down by Constituency such as in this image. Mangwanani (talk) 10:34, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Mangwanani, I made a draft constituency map but at the moment I can only count 209 constituencies. It would be very helpful to have an up-to-date list of the constituencies. Then I could find and search for the missing one. Do you know a source? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 16:31, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

- That looks so great. I don't know how you manage that! Just a thought - but feel free to disagree - when you convert to SVG, maybe have the outlines and numbers in black, with the constituencies in white? I'm just conscious that since the last election, the Opposition will be in Yellow so white numbers might not show very clearly. Just a thought. Alternatively, we could go down the line of white borders with the unknown stats in grey as per the US template? Mangwanani (talk) 09:26, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Mangwanani: I made a b&w version here – what do you think? It is png map suitable for an article on the constituencies. If one wants to make maps showing election results the pdf file should be used as a starting point, becauses this ensures the highest possible resolution. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 10:38, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
...also the (large) SVG file ...
- I think that's amazing. And the SVG version is brilliant to have. That really makes life so easy! Would you be against me uploading a second version that doesn't have the names of the constituencies included in the image file also? I think in the coming months it will prove useful to have both. Though I understand if you want to do it so that the upload history reflects your username. Mangwanani (talk) 10:26, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Mangwanani, ok I will do this. I also started a map with the preliminary results. If you detect any errors, please notify me. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 10:33, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- That looks great so far, though the CCC colour is yellow now - #ffcc00ff. The red of the MDC in the past is no more.... Mangwanani (talk) 10:59, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

- I have also made this map for Proportional Results. I don't know if you want to make a map to include it in the corner alongside constituency results like in German elections? I leave such a decision to your best tastes. Mangwanani (talk) 17:27, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

- Hi Both, I'm trying to do a vote share map and have noticed that CITE is listing Zvimba South with the results from Zvimba West and it's not on the ZEC website. Gokwe Kana also appears to be missing from ZEC- where did you get the results for these two from? ImperatordeElysium (talk) 21:06, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Hello ImperatordeElysium, here is a list of all elected candidates (re)published by veritaszim.net. Unfortunately I can't access the website of the ZEC, it seems to be permanently down, I don‘t know why ... --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 21:38, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- The CITE website is now redundant to use. The link that Furfur shared above is from the Government Gazette to view here in full. Mangwanani (talk) 00:11, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Mangwanani: do you know of any simiplar offical publication of the results of the presidential election? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 01:26, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- There's a spreadsheet with a breakdown by constituency on the ZEC website, but I know you've had trouble with it. I think this is the link to direct download the Excel file though. Give it a try? Mangwanani (talk) 12:26, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you. Unfortunately this link does not work at my location. But I thought that there should also be a publication in the Government Gazette? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 13:02, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
- This is all there is - no figures aside from the Excel spreadsheet on the ZEC site... Mangwanani (talk) 00:09, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- This notification contains only the statement "that Mnangagwa Emmerson Dambudzo of ZANU (PF) Party has, with effect from the 26th of August, 2023, been duly elected as the President of the Republic of Zimbabwe." No numbers and no mentioning of the other candidates. I thought that the detailed election result would perhaps be published in the Gazette ... --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 00:44, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
- I'm in the process of transferring the data on the ZEC site to Wikipedia. It'll take me a few days, but hopefully it will be what you want. In the meantime, I was just wondering whether you might be able to do a map with the updated districts please? Not the Constituencies - which is marvellous - but the districts. An updated, cleaner version of this in the style of your constituency maps, where the individual districts could be coloured in by an idiot like me on Inkscape...? Mangwanani (talk) 18:37, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- I can make a district map. It would be great if the publications of the ZEC would be accessible in the Commons – I hope that they have a free license. Could you also please upload election reports from former elections? I am thinking of making similar election maps for 2013 and 2008. And an additional questions: I have noticed that the party color of Nelson Chamisas CCC appears to be lighter than the yellow tone used in the maps here. What do you think of adapting the color of the maps? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 22:53, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- I'm slowly working my way through them and adding them to the categories on here for the correct year. They've done a stupid thing this year and uploaded each Constituency separately. The Presidential results is as a complex Excel sheet which won't save accessibly to PDF no matter what I change. Give me some time, I'm working through a table on here for the Assembly. Once I'm done with that, I'll start on the Presidential table by constituency. I also agree about the CCC colour. I make Chamisa's posters #FCF050. We would need to get them to change the colour profile on the political party module also to the lighter colour. I've put in an application but they're a bit slow in responding.... Mangwanani (talk) 23:05, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- I've just a colour test with that shade of yellow. It's really hard to see against a white background for things such as the seating maps of Parliament etc. I think the shade that is there already is more visually accessible for diagrams and graphics.... Mangwanani (talk) 23:13, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Mangwanani: I made made a district map based on the map of from the ZEC. However, I read on the internet that Harare province has four districts but in the ZEC map there are only three ...
You don't think that a lighter yellow, like (#f3f752) would be more suitable? --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 23:04, 8 September 2023 (UTC)- It took a lot of digging, because even the 2022 census showed the extra district. It does seem Harare is now just three districts and it's most clearly show in this report here - see page 101. But it's definitely a change that has been done on the quiet. As for the colour, I've just tested it out on a Parliament arch. It's still very light and next to the ZANU green, it seems to have a bit of a green tinge to it. I think the slightly darker yellow is probably the best option we have for accessibility and clarity at the moment. Mangwanani (talk) 11:52, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Mangwanani, ok, thank you for your search. I think, it would be nice, to have a district map showing the majorities in the presidential election. Do you know of any such data?
Regarding the color, I am not entirely convinced (one could add a small border around the seats in the Parliament arch) but I certainly don't want to change anything without your consent. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 14:52, 9 September 2023 (UTC)- So this is a sample with and without border that I've done with #FCF050, which is the colour I took off their campaign material. I just think it looks a bit weak, even with a border. What do you think? without border and here with border. As for District data - I'm still working my way through the Parliamentary results (it takes ages as I have to download the results from each individual constituency as a separate file....). Once I've done that, I'll do the Constituency results for the Presidential election, which will be easier, and from that you could then group the constituencies into districts. But they haven't done specific district results this time round.... Mangwanani (talk) 16:26, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- I've completed (finally) the results of the Constituency votes, which you can see here: en:Results of the 2023 Zimbabwean general election. I'll begin on the Presidential votes by Constituency in the coming week.... Mangwanani (talk) 00:48, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Mangwanani, thank you very much for this extensive and valuable work. Regarding the parliament arch: I find both versions perfectly fine. There are also other parties with a light yellow color in other countries, e.g., the Scottish National Party (File:Scottish Parliament elected members, 2007.svg), or the freie demokratische Partei (File:Germany Parliament 2021.svg). --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 02:00, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- How about this? This is with #FAE64D which I found having gone through some higher resolutions of their logos / campaign material and seems to be more consistent with what they use mostly. Shall we change to this shade of yellow? I've also changed this map to that shade of yellow just to show what it would look like in map form. I think I quite like it.... Mangwanani (talk) 16:35, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- I agree. I certainly find it better (=showing better the effective party color). I changed the constituency map accordingly. --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 21:22, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- I love it! Would you like to change the Presidential map also? I've updated the parliament arches accordingly also, but probably won't get on to the Presidential map for a while. Mangwanani (talk) 21:32, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- Ok, did it. May I ask you that you also upload the Excel spreadsheet (or any other official document) with the final results of the Presidential election (and/or save it in the web archive)? I have the impression that access to the web site of the ZEC from outside Zimbabwe has been blocked (hopefully only temporarily), perhaps in order relieve the web host a little bit ... --Furfur ⁂ Diskussion 21:45, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- I tried to upload the spreadsheets to the Archive, but it wasn't working. Will try another way a bit later. In the meantime, here are the full Presidential results: en:User:Mangwanani/President. I don't think this spreadsheet needs to go in its entirety to an article.... it's massive. Not sure what best to do with it.... Mangwanani (talk) 15:23, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
- They're done! I don't think I have any more results to share.... Happy number crunching! Mangwanani (talk) 00:29, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

- Yeah, I know what you mean. I took the lead from the US Presidential election analysis, which displayed them like that. I guess the solution would be to have a table that just showed the results between ZANU & CCC, but I do think it important for the people of Zim to access the data in an accessible way - unlike the ZEC website....
