Colours
[edit]The colors for 2020's and 2050's are too similar - especially since they are at opposite ends of the date range! SteveBaker (talk) 13:30, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
Italy
[edit]Hi Delusion23 could you please add Italy in the 30s colour after yesterdays announcement from the italian ministry or ecological transition to phase out by 2035 [1]. Unfortunatelly source available only in italian.Fra098 (talk) 18:28, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
Sources?
[edit]So if the map is based on the English article please could that could be stated in the description. If not what were the sources e.g. India is not in article table? Chidgk1 (talk) 11:34, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
Evidence-based mapping
[edit]As others have already noted, it is currently unclear what the information in the map is based on. I'm going to make efforts to bring it in line with Commons:Evidence-based mapping. This means mostly just copypasting the sources already provided in the English Wikipedia article, adding any relevant sources later, and removing any outdated sources whose information is no longer represented in the map. In the light of yesterday's unanimous agreement amongst all 27 EU environment ministers (Council of the European Union) with the European Commission's proposal (also backed by the European Parliament) to effectively ban the sale of all internal combustion engine vehicles by 2035, that means all EU member states can now be coloured with at least lightgreen for '2030s'. It overrules the colouring of countries like France and Spain to do so by the 2040s. I'm not sure if any of the 27 states already introduced a 2020s ban like Norway, but if so, that would precede over this EU agreement and stay the same colour.

- PS: Most work has been completed. The Glasgow Declaration signatories are very influential for this map. If we count a signature on the list as '2040s', then all these countries are cyan unless they have committed to other bans that will go into effect earlier. That means e.g. India is cyan. I must say that the Glasgow Declaration is miserably vague in certain parts, especially in that the B category signatories appear to have no explicit pledge to do their part by 2040 (except in the preamble, but the same words are repeated in the A category, not in the B category, implying that the B signatories are not committed to this date), and that the term 'leading markets' has not been defined. That leaves a lot of room for interpretation in which countries like India could lawyer themselves around any commitments. Curiously, India's signature even adds an arguably whataboutist statement about two-wheelers and three-weelers. Nevertheless, The New York Times interprets it as a commitment to a 2040 deadline by India, so going by them the colouring of B countries to cyan is not original research.
