Map Updates
[edit]Hi, I always enjoy your updates of the same-sex marriage map, and I have my own small map as well. However, I'm very much an amateur at Wikipedia. So I was wondering if you could answer a question whenever you get time and feel up for it: how the heck do you actually update a map? (e.g. changing it so that different parts are highlighted and whatnot- I have it changed on my computer file, but don't know what to do now). Any help would be appreciated since I can't find the right answer to my dilemma on here. Thanks Yankhill (talk) 04:10, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
- You need a text editor, like notepad. Then you open up the .svg file as if it were any text (.txt) file. There you will see that there is a list of definitions, which map out colors like "constitutionbanmore" to #990000, which is a red web color. Scroll down to the place where you see things like <use id="CA" xlink:href="#Striped-similar-constitution. Change that part in between the quotes to "#Solid-marriage" and it will be a solid blue. Or you can change "marriage" so that it's a green color with the appropriate web color. Niew (talk) 04:58, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Help w/ U.S. marijuana maps
[edit]Hi there! I notice you contribute to and discuss the same-sex marriage map of the United States. I am continually impressed with how up-to-date that map remains, and how much activity the talk page receives. I am finding it difficult to keep the three U.S. maps relating to marijuana found here up to date, so I was wondering if you might take a look and perhaps even add the images to your watchlist. I tried updating this one over at Commons, but the image has not updated yet (see NJ here). I am not sure if you have an interest in the legal status of cannabis or not, but I could sure use some help with keep the maps current. If interested, take a look! Thanks! --Another Believer (Talk) 18:55, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Niew. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Niew~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
