	01:26, 11 July 2024	958 × 602 (217 KB)	Jamesy0627144	fix issue with background color improperly displaying when using some dark mode addons
	12:10, 8 July 2024	958 × 602 (217 KB)	Timeshifter	Uploaded map with dots instead of "D"s. Per talk: w:Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Maps#Ability to distinguish "D" on map on cell phones
	04:08, 1 June 2024	958 × 602 (217 KB)	Jamesy0627144	increased D's to 19 instead of 27, see talk page
	08:11, 28 May 2024	958 × 602 (217 KB)	Timeshifter	Reverted to version as of 06:15, 26 May 2024 (UTC). Jamesy0627144 has not said the larger D size is too big for his cell phone. Or that he is able to clearly see the smaller D on his cell phone.

	06:15, 26 May 2024	958 × 602 (217 KB)	Timeshifter	Lighter green (80CE69) and larger "D". Makes the D visible in cell phones at the 350-pixel map width used in the main template. Check in your cell phone.

	23:44, 7 May 2024	958 × 602 (217 KB)	Timeshifter	Reverted to version as of 13:01, 29 April 2024 (UTC). See talk and comment by TheTechnician27 who prefers the original darker green and blue. Map was overcorrected by Jamesy0627144 in order to use the color of black cherry against a light green color. Pure black worked fine against the original darker green color. Which is why I reverted back to it. The lighter blue background color you changed to served no purpose since there was no "D" on any blue state. I changed the original red color of...
