Hi Iktsokh,
Thank you for your contributions to Commons. I noticed File:Schengen Agreement map.svg is out of date. Croatia joined Schengen Agreement on January 1st. Could you update it? Thanks again.--A09 (talk) 02:16, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Jordan must be removed

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Major_NATO_affiliations_in_Europe.svg HelpfulHens (talk) 15:08, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Unlike Kazakhstan, Russia, Turkey, Cyprus, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Jordan really is not part of Europe or the Western world, either geographically, or geopolitically, or according to historical and cultural criteria (unlike conditional Israel, or with stretch, Lebanon).

But the map itself, rather, implies the visualization of information on the status of all states bordering the continent, including the Levant in the Middle East). Iktsokh (talk) 15:32, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

File:3seas.png

See / Zob. Dyskusja Why Moldova is missing in the map (as coloured), if it declared the same as Ukraine thai it wants to join 3 Seas Group, and did it simultaneously with Ukraine in 2021? NoychoH (talk) 08:57, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi!

I am not the author of the map, I just corrected an error in the source material (Ukraine's border with Romania). In addition to Moldova, a year ago they also offered the possibility of Georgia joining the organization. This whole thing has not yet gone further than conversations (similarly with Moldova), so for now I think this is not fundamentally important. Iktsokh (talk) 12:37, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Ukraine and Georgia

They should be the same colour as Bosnia here due to a link I will provide. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0b/Major_NATO_affiliations_in_Europe.svg/800px-Major_NATO_affiliations_in_Europe.svg.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlargement_of_NATO#Current_status TBAG654321 (talk) 20:53, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi. If you wanted to update this map post-Brexit, shouldn't the UK overseas territories also be removed? For confirmation, I checked https://international-partnerships.ec.europa.eu/countries/overseas-countries-and-territories_en which mention only Denmark, France and the Netherlands.

Hi Iktsokh,
Thank you for your contributions to Commons. I noticed File:Military Occupations.png is out of date. Nagorno Karabakh and Ukraine are currently outdated. Could you update it? Thanks again. Asarlaí (talk) 14:19, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi! No problem. Updated. Iktsokh (talk) 14:14, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

Update request

Hello.

Can you color Armenia and Azerbaijan also in yellow in File:Dubbing films in Europe.png, without having to enlarge the map, since both countries are still visible in the map?

Both countries also use voice-over, like almost all of the former Soviet countries.

Yours sincerely, 31.200.16.100 07:15, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

Hey! Done. Iktsokh (talk) 21:33, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much! (I am that IP user, but forgot to login in.) Can you put this file also on your watchlist, in case it is not? A user keeps reverting, which clashes with the color labels in that file and in all Wikipedia articles which use this file with its original color labels.

File:Comparison of the population of London metropolitan area and European countries.png

Hello Iktsokh.

Can you add Bulgaria in File:Comparison of the population of London metropolitan area and European countries.png? That country has a population smaller than Greater London itself, let alone the metropolitan area of London. Bulgaria's population is 6,448,000, whereas London's population is 8,800,000, let alone London's metropolitan population of 14,800,000.

Kindest regards, Harashim (talk) 16:37, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Harashim! Done. Thanks for the update. Iktsokh (talk) 14:47, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Alright, the references for the airline destination maps are shown under the pic in the according Wikipedia articles. Using those references, which are from airline to airline somewhat different, the maps can be updated. WikiPate (talk) 19:59, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

Source of derivative work is not properly indicated: File:Map Flags of the Caucasus.png

This file may be deleted.

A file that you have uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, File:Map Flags of the Caucasus.png, is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such works would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a map that has been altered from the original. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. Please edit the file description and add the missing information, or the file may be deleted. If you created the original content yourself, enter this information as the source. If someone else created the content, the source should be the address to the web page where you found it, the name and ISBN of the book you scanned it from, or similar. You should also name the author, provide verifiable information to show that the content is in the public domain or has been published under a free license by its author, and add an appropriate template identifying the public domain or licensing status, if you have not already done so. Please add the required information for this and other files you have uploaded before adding more files. If you need assistance, please ask at the help desk. Thank you!
