re Map

Thank you very much for the work you did there. Since the green one is the closest to the present one, I would think that it would find favour. As regards the Scotland article, I liked the one you showed me too but it was discussed at the Scotland project or it might have been the talk page and the present one was adopted, shame really. I'll have a play with them in a sandbox and report back. I'm no expert in cartography as you have already realised but was wondering if someone say was doing an article on a Shetland island and used your map as the basis, but did a cut and paste so that a Shetland only map was produced, would the red dot still appear on the map? Hope you could make sense of that! --Bill Reid | Talk 11:15, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Once again, thanks for the work you've done on this. I understand what you are saying but the map now has this squashed down look that many would probably find disconcerting. Going back to the last one you did before this one, and just to get this right, it would still render inaccurate red dots? Rgds, --Bill Reid | Talk 16:43, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello again. Sorry for the delay in replying – actually trying hard to keep away from WP for a bit. The stretched version of the map looks good to me. Presumably the infobox template code points to the current map so substituting your map in the code for the current one would change all articles that use the infobox? --Rgds, Bill Reid | Talk 11:16, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

The map doesn't render now, only the red dot. I normally use Firefox so tried it on IE but same thing happens; wonder what's the problem. Rgds, Bill Reid | Talk 09:32, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Forget above, I see its a general problem not just me. I'll wait till it's fixed. Thanks again for getting this done. Bill Reid | Talk 10:51, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

2007 South Asian floods

This article is well referenced, and quite impressive in content - good job!! As the active member of the WikiProject India Assessment Team, I have assessed this article at a B-level, however, I think this article may have what it takes (or at least, have the potential) to be a Wikipedia:Good article or perhaps even a Wikipedia:Featured article. So, as you are an active editor of this article, I strongly recommend you get it peer-reviewed here, after which you should consider whether to nominate the article to be quality-assessed at a much higher level. If you have any other queries, please leave me a message. Best wishes. Ncmvocalist 11:14, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

maps on Commons

Hello. I see you've asked for a few of these maps to be deleted because they're on Commons. I'll do it but I suppose it's my duty to point out that the Commons images are not categorized. :-) Unsorted images is one of the big headaches on Commons so if you have a minute, please add categories there. Cheers, Pascal.Tesson 02:43, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

That's great, thanks. Pascal.Tesson 02:56, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Scottish infobox Map

Hi there, my edit summaries on Template:Location map Scotland indicate what I thought was a problem (and what turned out to be the solution, namely some wikimedia server errors that have been causing issues with image cashes - hence neither map was working). I have left the box map as the original for the moment, as I think we can make some improvements. I will render a high res version in WGS84 and then you can let me know what/how the projection alteration should be conducted - I'm afraid at the moment the loss of transparency and (most especially) the pixelation caused by the projection changes have left us with something that is not quite as good as it could be.
