Sources

[edit]

Hi. All of your "Map highlighting" files such as Image:Map highlighting Liberty Township, Wabash County, Indiana.png seem to be missing a source. Please correct this or the images might be deleted. /Lokal_Profil 13:38, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm working this out with Eloquence's file upload script, and expect to have it resolved shortly. These images are all my own work, based on free TIGER map data and generated with custom-written MapScript code. Thanks. Omnedon 14:27, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
My script is now set up to produce a files.txt file that includes full summary and licensing sections. I see now what I overlooked; sorry for any issues this may have caused. The existing items will of course be updated, and new ones will have this as a matter of course. Omnedon 14:49, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds fine =) /Lokal_Profil 17:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I believe the description and license issues on the existing items have been resolved now, except for a few very early files that used a different naming convention (for which I'll request deletion). Omnedon 21:09, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The ones I've looked at all look good =) /Lokal_Profil 01:19, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
