Hey map man new map needed for ITER

The map for ITER is inaccurate it’s when the UK was part of the EU the UK and Switzerland should not be dark blue I suggest a new map that keeps the full members as dark blue or dark orange because I think orange would be more appropriate to match ITER colours but makes the UK, Switzerland, Canada, Australia, Kazakhstan, and Thailand light blue to differentiate between full members and associate members right now associate members aren’t even represented on the map you seem like you make cool maps so you think you wanna do this?

Yo, I can do this for you no worries.

I've made this map as per what you were pondering, see what you think of it:

Though I have been thinking, the UK and Switzerland may not "officially" be members, but I feel like they still contribute very significantly – especially the UK. Although Brexit happened, British scientists likely wouldn't have ceased any work they were doing on ITER... Is it right to downgrade their status like this?

We will also have to change descriptions at several points through the page. Afiaki (talk) 11:20, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Great Map bro I see where you’re coming from and you might be right. I heard full members give financial support so the UK and Switzerlands contributions are more akin to Canada and Australias giving scientific and engineering expertise where needed along with materials that are needed for said project but no financial support this is just from the research I’ve done though I definitely might be wrong. But if you don’t want these nations to be downgraded I completely understand and wouldn’t be against it, ITER also says they’re 35 nation’s participating in this project but they refuse to state what those 35 nations are so it’s whatever the best thing is this map will be improving on the old one.

35 nations are the EU countries I’m embarrassed it took me that long to realize that, yeah whatever you want to do with UK and Switzerland I support also while we on the topic of maps the United Nations declaration on the rights on indigenous peoples treaty article needs a map as well.

Hey map man part 2

Wanna make a map for the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples article that shows all the signatories? Black roses124 (talk) 19:22, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Hey there! All done, check it out! Afiaki (talk) 10:05, 8 February 2023 (UTC)

Awesome as always! Canada signed it in 2021 but still awesome Black roses124 (talk) 05:21, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Afiaki you should add Canada they signed in 2021 :) Black roses124 (talk) 19:53, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Heya, sorry for the delay... I can certainly add Canada, but the map is representing the original declaration as it was in 2007, when the vote was held.

Since then, as far as the article goes, every country who had initially rejected the declaration is now supporting it in some way. Canada is the only one which has since formally signed it, but are the other countries still against it? At the end of the day, their original votes could have potentially tipped the scales and the declaration would not be what it is today. I think most readers would be curious about why Canada had rejected the vote (like I was with my country), and would read the article and find out Canada signed the declaration 14 years later.

It's no trouble to add it, but what's your opinion? Afiaki (talk) 23:40, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

Oh I don’t know than honestly do what you think is best. Maybe add two maps one that shows the original votes and one that shows the current signatories? Because New Zealand is also currently talking about signing this treaty so I feel like it might not be correct to have only that map that shows the the rejections. I don’t know though you should do what you think is accurate. Black roses124 (talk) 20:15, 12 February 2023 (UTC)
