• Support as nominator --Nergaal (talk) 03:14, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Support Detailed and encyclopaedic. Also svg. I haven't checked that text is editable etc though. JJ Harrison (talk) 10:22, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Support as per above. Ρόμπστερ 1983 ^{☞Life's short, talk fast ☜} 22:33, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Question Is there a reason this isn't fully translated? Makeemlighter (talk) 23:47, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You mean local names? I am guessing that those are small towns that do not Anglicized names. Nergaal (talk) 02:49, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I mainly meant "Chornobyl'" instead of "Chernobyl" and "Kyyivs’ke vodoskhovyshche" instead of "Kiev reservoir", but there are others. Makeemlighter (talk) 03:15, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose. Color keys are supposed to be in captions, not within the images themselves. Kaldari (talk) 20:44, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Aren't there FP maps with captions inside the image already?

There are heaps. [1], as one example. Where does it say colour keys should be only in the caption? Aaadddaaammm (talk) 10:45, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, Wikipedia:WikiProject Maps generally requires keys inside the image. If the image is printed or used elsewhere, a key on the Wikipedia page doesn't help. Matthewedwards :  Chat  17:30, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose until all names that can be given in English, are. Matthewedwards :  Chat  17:35, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• To the closer, I didn't come back in time to change my vote to "support", but note that I said I opposed until names were translated, which they have. Please consider that. :) Matthewedwards :  Chat  03:51, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I've translated as much as I can to English using en:wiki article names where there are multiple English versions. If I missed anything or another name is preferred, I'll gladly change those too. Makeemlighter (talk) 23:31, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Nergaal (talk) 17:28, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
