To whomever is responsible for editing this map, could we correct the inconsistency using both Dukedom and Duchy? The other one worth addressing, though less of an issue, is the inconsistent application for counties. Some are labelled "County of ____," while others use "___ County." While we aren't bound to it, the tradition is that the holding is named to reflect the title. For instance, the Duke of Waesche's holding would be the Duchy of Waesche while Duke Van Valkenburg's would be Van Valkenburg Duchy. If we aren't following that convention, then there is no reason to be using multiple approaches arbitrarily.
Also, if the intent is to keep updating this, it's going to get crowded. It might be worth having two versions: one for geography, one for Peerage holdings. In the meantime, it's probably worth labeling the geographical features in black, and the holdings in dark red.
Finally, if we're going to bother with licensing info on the image, we need to make sure it it updated whenever a new version is created. Otherwise, why bother with it in the first place? Thoughts?--DukeBearPeninsula (talk) 14:59, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
- These suggestions are excellent. Unfortunately, the errors you see here took hundreds of hours to compile, and the requested changes are now not at all straightforward to implement (you'd think so, but no; you are welcome to try yourself using the original .ai file, which is much too large to be uploaded here, but can be sent to any who ask). If we cannot have a map with consistent (and correct) title formats and different colors for landmarks versus territories, then I think we are better off with a much simpler map that contains only [limited] landmarks. I am pretty sure we already have one somewhere we can use (?). That map will require no updating, no renewed licensing, no corrections, and no one's time. The fonts here are difficult to read in any case, though I very much doubt it would ever become much more crowded than it is today as the assigning of mew titles has all but ceased and only one new title has been given out over the past three or four months.
