Hello, I've found this image has a star at the bottom is wrongly converted. Can you fix that? Thanks. --Great Brightstar (talk) 20:58, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing it out. The stars look fine when viewed natively in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Inkscape. The problem only shows up in the Media Viewer and in the PNG images generated by Wikimedia. This presumably a librsvg bug. The stars a laid out as markers along a path that starts and ends near the top of the circle. I find it really weird that the bug only impacts one star half way along the path. I guess I have to revert to using "use" elements instead of markers. Too bad because markers can be efficient way to lay out multiple objects. I will try and generate a replacement flag later this evening. MapGrid (talk) 22:40, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I uploaded a new version that abandons markers. However, it would be nice to Media Viewer and/or librsvg fixed.MapGrid (talk) 04:06, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Red and Green

The strawberry fruit (which is not actually a berry) is widely appreciated for its characteristic aroma, bright red color, juicy texture, and sweetness.

Thanks for taking the time to make SVG code and construction sheet of the Moroccan flag! --Flaspec (talk) 00:12, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Source

File file:Nova Scotia in Canada 2.svg may not be a modified version of file:Nova Scotia in Canada.svg but it comes from a file that should be indicated. Thx --YanikB (talk) 12:29, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@YanikB: File:Nova Scotia in Canada 2.svg is not a modified version of any existing map. It is generated from GIS data with a custom perl script. I have updated the source field to include the GIS data sources. Can you have a look and let me know if this is acceptable? If it is, I will apply the same text to my other Canadian map files. Thank you.MapGrid (talk) 04:41, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please create a North American time zone map

File:Timezoneswest.PNG is used on a number of timezone pages like w:Mountain Time Zone and w:Time in Saskatchewan. It's outdated (look at North Western Canada) and a PNG file. Could you please make a map as nice looking as File:Canada time zone map - en.svg for all of North America? Akeosnhaoe (talk) 06:49, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am not against doing a map of North America; it is something have previously considered doing. Realistically, however, I don't think it will happen this year. I might consider reprioritizing if and when large areas in the USA start abandoning daylight saving. MapGrid (talk) 14:39, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see any reason to expect that to happen within this decade. Akeosnhaoe (talk) 21:15, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, can you remake an accurate version of that flag?--217.71.131.23 11:57, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
