Wikipedia:Maps from Ordnance Survey
![]() | This is a failed proposal. Consensus for its implementation was not established within a reasonable period of time. If you want to revive discussion, please use the talk page or initiate a thread at the village pump. |
We are allowed to copy ten maps from the Ordnance Survey Get-a-map service and place them on Wikipedia. Please ensure that any map so copied is given a copyright tag of {{Ordnance Survey Copyright}}. There is the possibility of removing one map and replacing it with another.
Usage
editI propose usage primarily in Ordnance Survey, or another page to illustrate aspects of the maps rather than each individual town or city. Dunc_Harris|☺ 23:12, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Linkage
editInstead of including an OS map we can link to the OS Get-a-map service using templates such as {{gbmapping}} or {{gbmappingsmall}}. (Apparently we can do this an unlimited amount of times - even though it costs them more bandwidth than if we copied the map once.)
