Image thumbnail cache issue
Actually how many there are countries which have recognized South Sudan in this map? There is no number in the picture desciption, and no number in the South Sudan article. I counted about 25 countries. 82.141.74.36 (talk) 19:53, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Belgium, Chile, Estonia, Ethiopia, Greece, India, Jordan, Latvia, South Africa and Taiwan should be green. See, , , , , , , , Ron 1987 Ron 1987 (talk) 20:48, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I think there might be some issues with the new versions of the map, as when I click on the latest SVG file, it comes up with all those included, but the rasterized version is based on the older one. Quite strange really.ChristopherGregory (talk) 21:45, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * This a MediaWiki error, the SVG itself is up-to-date -- Smurfy 21:48, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * As described in that bug report, some thumbnails appear to have updated -- Smurfy 21:53, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
 * It still does not work... Ron 1987 (talk) 16:03, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Would it be worthwhile to duplicate the most recent SVG into a new file and then use that instead?ChristopherGregory (talk) 06:03, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Please do not. The bug report states that as one of the main reasons to get it fixed quickly: Lots of futile redirects and confusion among users. This image will probably be updated frequently over the next week, yet the bug persists; we can't change the name every time this occurs. We just need to wait it out. — MK (t/c) 06:44, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I added some thumbnails to the right to illustrate the problem. All 3 images are out of date as of this writing. — MK (t/c) 04:30, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Republic of China (Taiwan)
The Republic of China (Taiwan) needs to be highlighted in green on this map as it has recognized South Sudan as an independent state. It's the small island to the southeast of the People's Republic of China for those who do not know. 08OceanBeach S.D. 22:35, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The latest SVG version does include ROC, the issue is with the rendered file and thumbnails as indicated above.ChristopherGregory (talk) 05:57, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Colorblind inaccessable
Could this map be made more accessable to the 8% of us who are red-green colorblind? I.e., by using any combination of colors besides red and green. (Blue, pink, orange, yellow, black, magenta, etc.) QVanillaQ (talk) 04:39, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Done, changed to blue. Note that as mentioned above, there is a bug currently affecting the display of the image, so it may appear red for a bit before the change propagates. — MK (t/c) 05:54, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Blue makes it harder for the rest of us to see, though, especially on thumbnails. Could yellow or magenta be used instead? -Kudzu1 (talk) 06:20, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps cyan would be best. Hm... I'll wait for the bug to be fixed before making any changes. — MK (t/c) 06:30, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I went with yellow. I was going to update it in every wiki page that uses it but the number seems to be ballooning and due to the thumbnail not updating I've already had one reverted. I'll check back for those after the bug is fixed. — MK (t/c) 08:24, 10 July 2011 (UTC)


 * I think the yellow/green combination works best. Thanks! :) QVanillaQ (talk) 16:54, 10 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Red or Yellow? Wikifail
 * My advice: use light green to states which are recognizing South Sudan, and dark green for South Sudan itself.

Bulgaria
Bulgaria will not recognize South Sudan until next week. It should be gray. Libya also should not be green. Ron 1987 (talk) 12:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Libya's listed as a country that recognizes South Sudan. Unfortunately, this map is already out of date but it's a fast paced world out there! Imaslee  pviking  ( talk ) 13:11, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Sierra Leone, Maldives and Western Sahara
Why Sierra Leone is green? This contry does not recognize South Sudan at this moment. Maldives and Western Sahara should be green. See. Ron 1987 (talk) 13:52, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Slovakia, Vietnam, Qatar and Kuwait
Slovakia, Vietnam, Qatar and Kuwait recognizes South Sudan. See International recognition of South Sudan Ron 1987 (talk) 17:46, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Albania has officially recognized South Sudan's independence
Albania should be green in the map, the Albanian Foreign Ministry officially recognized South Sudan's independence today. http://www.ora-news.com/v2/index.php?on=details&id=22086&nid=1&PHPSESSID=ec5779933cd68036b6a604e936f72d8d (albanian)--Ecad93 (talk) 13:15, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * All set. — MK (t/c) 04:17, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Israel recognizes South Sudan
You may have to use Google Translate to read it, because it is in Arabic, but it is posted on the official website of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Article here! --94.249.64.140 (talk) 07:34, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Poland
there is no reference for it on the recognition page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phil Ian Manning (talk • contribs) 14:43, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Old image used?
The most recent version of the image seems to be lacking India and a couple of other countries. Can you check that this is up-to-date? Tim (Xevious) (talk) 16:04, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Israel
Can someone add Israel to the map, someone said he did it but it's still grey when should be green. (77.127.226.168 (talk) 11:28, 13 July 2011 (UTC))

United States Territories
All United States Territories namely Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Guam, Northern Marianas and Guam should be highlighted in green. Foreign relations are handled by the United States government which already recognized South Sudan. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.237.208.199 (talk) 11:58, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
