Colour-blind-accessible alternative map

• 

  Colour-coded map identifying which countries do and which do not recognise the Armenian genocide

Article(s): en:Armenian genocide#International recognition and en:Armenian genocide recognition#Countries

Request

I recently tagged the file for a colour-blind accessibility problem. Please also see its associated Discussion page File talk:States recognising the Armenian Genocide.svg (the section about Colorblind friendly red and green?), where the originator of the map responded to the template — apparently considering a more accessible version of the map would not be in the interest of the majority of readers. I cannot tell whether that is true, I cannot change the file myself or make a new version, and there is no indication that further discussion between the originator and me would prove fruitful. The Description section on the file's page lists the countries. If you think a more accessible map would on balance be a good thing and are able to make a suitable new version, could you do so, please? Thank you and best wishes, --Frans Fowler (talk) 22:07, 26 June 2023 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s)

Hello Frans Fowler, and thank you for voicing your concern about the accessibility issue.

1. "Hatching" an area has been traditionally a go-to option for print media since they only had black and white back then. Yet when it comes to Wikimedia Commons, we will also need to consider maintainability — how easy it is for someone to update a map. The existing format is extremely easy to change while adding patterns would involve some more cumbersome SVG manipulations.
2. I see that you are in a dispute with the original author. The function of this Graphic Lab is not to argue for anyone on any side, so I will avoid overwriting the existing file this time. I have uploaded my experiment here instead.
3. Two things I've changed in the aforementioned experiment: the green color is now darker, and the red color is now orange. Using a color-blind simulator like this one, I think the two colors can be reasonably distinguished.
4. The very famous WCAG guideline for website accessibility recommends having texts as alternatives to non-text elements. As long as this map is always accompanied by legends that explain the data, it's fair game.

--痛^Designism (talk) 03:12, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

– Thank you, 痛^Designism, for your work, explanation, and advice. Your experimental version works well for me. Please leave this request open while I consult the user who made the original map. - --Frans Fowler (talk) 01:13, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Is it possible to edit out the "based on precise measurements" sentence? It isn't strictly speaking factually true. --Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 06:11, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Graphist opinion(s)

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: if you use extracted image, you could separate text and it easier for other wikis to translate

Possible Interiors of TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets

Based on precise measurements of the plante densities

• a) no Core
  • Rocky surface, iron mixed uniformly with other elements throughout the interior

• b) Mantle + Core
  • Rocky surface, with an iron-rich core that is proportionally smaller than Earth's

• c) Ocean + Mantle + Large Core
  • Deep Ocean layer on surface with larger iron-rich core
  • This is only possible for the cooler, outer 4 planets

--Mrmw (talk) 19:37, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Sure, but that's not what I am asking for - this sort of text is too long for the caption. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 06:07, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: keep caption short, put rest of text in article (s. above) --Mrmw (talk) 08:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

I'd still prefer a version with some of the text included. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 15:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

It is always preferred to take the text out of the image and put it in captions. (1) It is easier to make textual updates. (2) It is easier to translate and reuse for Wikimedia projects in other languages. (3) It adapts to mobile better. (4) Screen readers can easily read what the image is trying to say without the presence of an alt text. (5) It makes the file size smaller. Overall, I do not see an overwhelming benefit for a version with the text included. --痛^Designism (talk) 23:15, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

@Jonteemil: WinHistoryInGIF.gif has been deleted. The two other GIFs were fixable by letting FFmpeg recreate them. E.g. ffmpeg -i path_to_original.gif path_to_new.gif. I don't know whether it's possible to fix the PNG or the JPG. It's interesting that Salto Zulma 12.jpg is broken considering that the other 23 "Salto Zulma" images are fine. The PNG seems to have been superseded by Bahçeşehir İlçesi.jpg, so I requested a speedy deletion. TilmannR (talk) 00:15, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

Request

This would be a long-term request, as what is desired is for a dedicated individual to effectively redraw all the diagrams in a suitable format. The illustration sketches could be extracted as PNG, after the yellowing has been removed.

• Note1 : The measures given in the diagrams appear to be in 'Graudated tape' units. - This means that they are in effect scaling factors. The true measures being ${\frac {x}{18}}*y$ where x is the 'tape' used (typically based on a Bust, chest or waist measure) and y is measure given in the diagram.

• Note 2: It would be nice if the pattern sections could also be provided in some suitable format for sewing pattern data, but I'm not sure Commons supports those formats directly.

So the current illustration of the seal of Pingnan Guo isn't very representative to say the least; it's based on a poorly drawn gif from 2011 that's poorly mashed a lot of the seal script characters together. The characters are supposed to read 總統兵馬大元帥杜 in Chinese seal script and قائد جميع المسلمين in Arabic. I think the current style of seal illustrations would be best to depict this.

1. it's saying "The source code of this SVG is invalid due to 3 errors." is that true?
2. if yes, should it be fixed?
3. if yes, could someone plz fix it?

thx a lot!--RZuo (talk) 13:50, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

@RZuo: It is true and should be fixed. You can click invalid to go to the W3C validation of the file. In this case, the errors are caused by circle elements with d attributes. I don't have permission to overwrite the file, so I haven't looked into the issues in detail, but it should be a fairly straightforward fix. —CalendulaAsteraceae (talk • contribs) 04:50, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

@RZuo:

Generally, inconsequential validation errors in SVG files can be ignored. See Help:SVG.

Many validation errors are reasonable extensions such as aria-* or data-* attributes. SVG 2.0 is also introducing new attributes that SVG 1.1 validators will flag as errors. For the licensing tutorial case, the d attributes on svg:circle elements are incorrect, but they do not hurt much and do not need to be corrected right now. The fix also needs an admin's time. (I tried fixing it but ran into its file protection.)

There are other subtle costs with doing minor fixes to files. It tickles watch lists. Some users have gone on crusades to validate syntax or to minimize file size. The notion is commendable, but it consumes other users' time and frequently introduces errors or other issues. Users' viewpoints are often different: some users will delete metadata that includes author and license information.

If it ain't broke, then don't fix it.

FWIW, I am a believer in strong typing, validation, and removing warnings, but I am also pragmatic. If a user is uploading a file for other reasons, then that is a good time to fix validation issues.

2. Flag captured at Ghazni which looks like this in the picture, written are the names of the first 4 caliphs placed opposite each other (Abu Bakr أَبُو بَكْرٍ, ‘Umar عُمَر, Uthman عُثْمَان and Ali عَلِيّ)
3. Flag captured in Waziristan, it was drawn in this book, but in the photo you can see 2 crosses and one "X", I don't know their color so make them black, the flag is with white and red stripes. Crosses do not have Christian connotations and are one of the patterns woven on carpets to bring good luck.

Österreichischer Lloyd flag

  The best logo drawing I found. The blue picture in the background shows the more ornate lettering, use the blue one if it's possible.

Article(s): en:Österreichischer Lloyd

Request

[20] [21] [22]

Please add the house flag of the Österreichischer Lloyd. The flag was navy blue and featured a yellow logo with darker outlines. The crown includes a red filling. The logo consists of an anchor crown with an intricate monogram and ribbons with the inscription. The flag appeared in two versions, only the anchor and the crown without ribbons on the sides or with additional ribbons on the sides of the crown and under the whole. I am asking for both versions.

@CalendulaAsteraceae: Thank you! On the matter of the oak leaves, I'd recommend using the same kind of ones used on this file here as part of "Design 2", as they seem closer in shape to them than any other SVG oak leaves I've been able to find on WC.

@CalendulaAsteraceae: Nice work, thanks! Just one more thing... is there any chance you could both enlarge and reposition the two-leaves symbol, so that it closer matches the size and position of the two-leaves symbol on the flag in the link?

Request

At present, Commons lacks a full complement of the arms used by the Commonwealth of England, Scotland, and Ireland. We are missing the final arms of 1659, after the deposition of Richard Cromwell. According to George Vertue (plate XXIV here), the third seal of the Commonwealth depicted the arms without the Cromwell inescutcheon and without the normal supporters – two non-descript angels clutching vegetation (laurel crown, palm frond and laurel branch) in their place. It would be nice to have an SVG version of this coat of arms, as well as of the shield alone (File:Arms of the Protectorate (1653–1659).svg with the inescutcheon removed) and of the banner of arms (File:Standard of Oliver Cromwell (1653–1659).svg with the inescutcheon removed). It would seem from the seals that different versions of the protectorate-era arms existed, or were intended to exist, for the three different ex-kingdoms: a seal for Irish use has the harp in the second quarter (plate XXV) – so it would be good to have shields of arms and banners of arms for those variations too.

Request

Please create SVGs for the royal coat of arms in England and Ireland in spring 1689 using existing elements. According to Charles Oman's "Caddinets and a Forgotten Version of the Royal Arms" and Adrian Ailes's "Silent ambassadors of the State: symbols of national identity on the Great Seals and coins of the United Kingdom", the arms of William III between 13 February and 11 April 1689 (i.e. before recognition of William by the Scots Parliament) consisted of England quartered with Ireland only, without any Scottish arms, and with the Tudor dragon in place of the Stuart unicorn. Apparently this design was made into a Great Seal before becoming obsolete, and still exists on a caddinet, formerly among the royal plate collection, sold off to William Lowther, 1st Earl of Lonsdale, and reacquired by the royal collection in 1975. In simple terms, the Scottish red lion and silver unicorn must come out of the pre-Revolution arms, with the lion being replaced by a second harp and the unicorn replaced by the red dragon. Heraldic banners would also be desirable, but not essential. GPinkerton (talk) 17:44, 17 September 2023 (UTC)

The extraneous elements confuse SVG Translate. IIRC, SVG Translate will also object to #text nodes mixed with tspan elements. Glrx (talk) 00:06, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
