Wikivoyage:Requests for maps Voyage Tips and guide

Contents

The following are destinations that need maps. The Mapmaking Expedition is a project to coordinate map development for Wikivoyage; please refer to that Expedition's standards if you're going to work on one of these maps. See How to draw static maps and How to use dynamic maps for instructions for making your own. The Dynamic maps Expedition is aiming to make user-interactive maps which are less customizable but quicker to implement.

If you know of an article that needs a map, add it to the list below. Try to note the type of map, for example, city map, region map, etc. If you start making one of these maps, please remove it from this list.

Also be sure to check out the Regions map Expedition to see whether someone if working on a map in that Expedition.

• Modified maps of Africa, East Africa, and Central Africa, putting South Sudan in the East African region, per ongoing discussion at Talk:Africa. The conversation isn't over, but it would be helpful to compare. 22:04, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

I don't see South Sudan listed at East Africa. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 16:18, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• On the trail of Marco Polo has a map, but it isn't in English, nor is it in line with our style.

• city map for Zhuhai
• city map for Shenzhen

• Lower Austria doesn't match our visual style

• Southern Finland, West Coast (Finland) and Finnish Lakeland don't have a colour-blind friendly map.

  • Grand-Est
  • Hauts-de-France
  • île-de-France
  • Pays de la Loire.

• Northern Hungary lacks a static map

More concerning than this, Hungary as a whole lacks a static map. I am working on creating a new one to fit the regions now. --Comment by Selfie City (talk) (contributions) 15:48, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OK, Hungary as a whole now has a static map accurately representing the regions. As for maps of the individual regions of the country, I won't be able to get to those yet. Most subregions globally don't have static maps yet and there are requests here that deserve higher priority. --Comment by Selfie City (talk) (contributions) 16:17, 28 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Iceland itself has a map with typical colours, but sadly, these aren't colour-blind friendly. Two regions are also missing from the dynamic version

High-level mainland regions of Portugal are Done.

• Lisbon — Needs a district map

The Wikidata IDs used to produce the dynamic maps may assist in determining boundaries for the static maps.

• Slovakia has three subregions, all of which have subdivisions and static maps, but two of them Western Slovakia and Central Slovakia don't match our visual style. Eastern Slovakia misses context and has a very large font

• Berne Region has a dynamic map that is not colour-blind friendly and could also do with a static version
• Central Switzerland is colour-blind unfriendly and can do with a static map
• Eastern Switzerland has a static map that lacks context (railroads seemingly end no-where and road infrastructure is missing)
• Northwestern Switzerland is colour-blind unfriendly and can do with a static map
• Surselva needs a map that matches our visual style
• Ticino misses context: Lakes seem to stop at the border of the region and infrastructure is lacking
• Valais has a static map that lacks context (railroads seemingly end no-where and road infrastructure is missing)
• Western Switzerland has a static map that lacks context (railroads seemingly end no-where and road infrastructure is missing)
• Zurich is colour-blind unfriendly and can do with a static map

• Both Manchester and Edinburgh have a district map that is not colorblind-friendly.
• The West Country map has the Isles of Scilly shaded as part of Cornwall, when the article treats them separately. They should be reshaded; not a big change. (mentioned at Talk:West Country). 17:08, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
• Various maps relating to Scotland need fixing both on the country page and on various region pages. The text of place names is so small that even when the maps are blown up to huge sizes they remain illegible and unusable.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 15:58, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Lake Patzcuaro requires a map with the towns surrounding the lake.

• Manhattan/Chinatown and Manhattan/Lower East Side need adjustments, per Talk:Manhattan/Chinatown#More border questions. The elimination of areas of Chinatown north of Grand and east of Eldrige were made without discussion, though it would be good to get a consensus for restoring this area that was previously in the static map before the dynamic maps are edited.
