File talk:Venezuela (orthographic projection).svg

I find the inclusion of guyana to be confusing to the causal viewer and inaccurate as a whole. I would vote for it to be changed to show solely venezuela proper.

explanation about the maps
Nobody is entitled to define an official map as wrong, the only authority able to do that is the organization in charge of making the official maps in every country, which is IGVSB in this case. Wikipedia shows the maps according to the official maps in each country, as you can confirm in the cases of India, Pakistan, Argentina, Chile, Morocco, Suriname, or China, no matter how many maps you can find by searching on Google. This doesn't mean Wikipedia is recognizing these lands as belonging to one country, but only the fact that the country claims the area and that the claim exists. Doing otherwise would be a transgression of the NPOV anyway, since you would be supporting the other country's position, by saying that the territory is not being claimed. This would be nonsense, since the Venezuelan claim was recognized internationally and even by Guyana and the United Kingdom when they signed the Geneva Agreement about this subject, in 1966. I wouldn't like to start edit wars about this simple subject, so I hope you will be able to understand this point. --Hiddendaemian (talk) 06:04, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
