An interactive map of Wikipedia Education Programs for Outreach wiki
[edit]Hi Arun,
You may not remember me. We corresponded briefly back in October about your IEG proposal for the Wikimaps Atlas project. I hope that work is going well. :)
I'm on the WMF's global education team now, and some of our community members have asked us to add a map of educational programs on education.wikimedia.org. We really want this, too; and we'd especially like to have an interactive map, like this one used by Wiki Loves Monuments here.
I've submitted a map request on the Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Map workshop. But that process could take quite a while and it isn't guaranteed. So they suggest proposing a direct collaboration with a mapmaker using his talk page to request special maps.
I wanted to reach out to you because I remembered all the praise your proposal got from the mapmaking community. :)
Do you know anyone in the cartography community who might want to participate in this? Could you possibly help us with this? I'm hoping so! :)
I'm also reaching out to your project partner User:Yug.
All the best, Arun. Anna Koval (WMF) (talk) 23:00, 15 May 2014 (UTC)
- Dear Arun, just wanted to let you know that the map that I requested your help with has already been made by User:NordNordWest here. Thanks anyway. :) Hope all is well. Anna Koval (WMF) (talk) 17:26, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
- Dear Anna, sincere apologies, I missed seeing your message in all the other work that was happening at that time. Glad that you got the map, cheers. -- PlaneMad|YakYak 17:48, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Indian svg images vs Pakistani svg images
[edit]Hi Arun Ganesh ! I am Nehal Dave from Gujarat Ahmedabad. I am active in sa.wikipedia. I have seen you created so many images in svg format. I know you are volunteer and all that, but I want to ask you few question. I hope you don't mind.
1. You can see below in Indian maps Kasmir is noted as disputed aria and same in pakistani images Kasmir is the part of that country. So what is the matter, why we can't create a map in which Kasmir appear as part of India ?
2. We don't want to change pakistani images, but can't we change our Indian images ?
3. If yes than can you change or teach me that how to create svg file and rules of that ?
4. If no than what are the rule or problems will be occurred ? Tell me your point of view.
Please help and guide me. Thank you....

[edit]In 2017 - 2018, the Wikimedia Foundation and Google working in close coordination with the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Wikimedia India chapter (WMIN) and user groups will pilot a program encouraging Wikipedia communities to create locally relevant and high-quality content in Indian languages.

The objective of the program is to provide laptops and internet stipends for existing editors who need support to contribute more actively. 50 basic model Acer Chromebooks and Internet stipends for 100 contributors are available for distribution. Provided resources are the sole property of the beneficiaries and should be used for the betterment of the movement.
If you're an active Wikimedian, and interested to receive support from this project, please apply. It will take around 10 minutes of your time, and will ask descriptive questions about your contribution to Indic Wikimedia projects.
- Apply at: Supporting Indian Language Wikipedias Program#Apply for support
- Last date for submitting applications is 11th February 2018, 11:59 IST.

India Cultural Regions
[edit]Back in 2006, you made several maps of unofficial cultural regions of India. I have found the ones I’ve seen very informative, however, I have no idea where I would find the rest. If you wouldn’t mind, could you list all the pages where I could find them?
P.S. I’m new at Wikipedia messaging, so I’m still a little confused on what “signing” is and how to do it.

[edit]Incorrect information on Assam in the Indian revolt of 1857 states map
[edit]Dear Arun,
I appreciate your work, especially, the map on Indian revolt of 1857 states.
Unfortunately, the same map has used incorrect information on Assam and has depicted the state and its people in bad light. Being an Assamese myself, it has hurt my sentiments no end.
Kindly check the screenshot shown alongside and see how the state of Assam has been wrongly shown as one of those states that remained neutral during the Revolt of 1857.
Kindly check Maniram Dewan to know more about how Assam was one among those states who actively participated against the British during the Revolt of 1857.
In fact Maniram Dewan conspired against the British and involved several people in it, including the then Ahom king. Maniram Dewan and several others were hanged to death by the British due to his involvement in the Revolt of 1857.
Even after Maniram Dewan's death, several tea garden workers revolted against the British in protest against the death penalty of Maniram Dewan.
Kindly take this into account and revise your map.
Thank you so much!

Kolkata area locator map.svg
[edit]Hey, can you please make a locator Map of Kolkata (Calcutta) city district and Kolkata suburban district, with major roads, railways and water bodies?
In the exact way you created for Mumbai (Bombay). It's a sincere request to you to please help in making the map as it's required for the Kolkata page. Being a Megacity of India like Mumbai & Chennai, Kolkata too deserves a locator map made in your style. If you do, please include the entire Kolkata Metropolitan Area in the map.
I hope you accept my sincere request. Please reply! Thanks 🙏🏻 Rourib.2004 (talk) 19:10, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hi @Planemad
I am a new wikipedia user and I am keenly intrested in map making. The reason why I contacted you is that for few days, I am making a map of Gujarat Sultanate. However, I was not able to find any suitable base map for it. Then In search of base map. I came across your 1. It was a nice map with a perfect base too.
Hence, It would be great, If you could provide me the base map which you used in 1. It would save a large amount of time for me as I am not able to find any suitable base map for my project.

- Apologize for the delayed response. Glad my map was useful, you can open the SVG in any vector editor like inscape to customize it. For that particular map, the source is pg198 of India - A History. Hope that helps Planemad|YakYak 17:42, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
