User talk:Mr. Matté/Archive 9

NOTE: If you leave a question/comment here, I will respond your comments/questions here, not on your talk page. If you left a question or anything else to which you want me to respond, check back here; I don't leave alerts but I do usually reply quickly. Also, if I left a message on your page and you're coming over here to respond, I'd prefer that you respond under my point/question on your own page, please try not to leave a message for me. This way keeps the whole conversation on one section and you don't have to shuttle through two or more pages to follow the conversation chronologically. Thanks. —Mr. Matté

Ohio articles
Thanks for your work on the Ohio articles! I did notice a few things that I thought I'd mention - some of the RDs need to be broken up into paragraphs, and there were sometimes a few sources missing that prevented the article from moving all the way to B. Some of those articles might pass at WP:GAN, though in the past articles on extremely short Ohio roads (i.e. boat ramps) with no newspaper sources have been controversial. --Rschen7754 20:59, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

USA Counties with names.svg
There's a small error in your USA Counties map. There's an inkscape label that says "Yukon-Koyukuk, AL" but it should be "Yukon-Koyukuk, AK" (Alaska, not Alabama).

Also, can you share the parameters of the projection used for this, so it could be annotated with cities or other locations? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.79.120.208 (talk) 18:52, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I've made updates to the map but removed the useless labels (all states are represented in the object's first two letters). I don't know what projections were used in originally creating the map, I used File:USA Counties.svg as my base. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 00:54, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

File:USRD_FA_map.png
Can you update it to show U.S. Route 25 in Michigan? US 16 in MI is at FAC now, but even if it passes, you wouldn't be able to distinguish it from I-96 at that scale/perspective.  Imzadi 1979  →   07:23, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Almost forgot File:MISH FA map.png too.  Imzadi 1979   →   07:25, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that you can make out that US 16 was added, but US 25 in MI is still missing.  Imzadi 1979  →  01:15, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
 * US 25 and now I-275 need to be added to the MI map. I-275 needs to be added to the national FA map.  Imzadi 1979  →   05:04, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Interstate 94 in Michigan was promoted today, so if you could, can you please add it to both the national and Michigan maps?  Imzadi 1979  →   01:48, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if California State Route 94 was added, but that as well. --Rschen7754 01:49, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
 * File:USRD FA map.png, File:USRD upper half map.png, File:MISH FA map.png, File:USRD upper half map NE.png have been updated as of 2/2/17. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 23:38, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you!  Imzadi 1979   →   03:03, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Pennsylvania maps
I noticed a minor error in the two new Pennsylvania maps you made. The line for the Pennsylvania Turnpike is overlapping the label for Pittsburgh.  Dough   4872   14:52, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

On a side note, exits between 8 and 15 on SR 43 are not part of the turnpike, so I thought the SR 43 icon should be to the left of the routes, not covering it. Cards84664 (talk) 14:41, 30 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Both changes are ✅ at File:Pennsylvania Turnpike map.svg (the latter obviously much later than the former). —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 20:14, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Delaware Route 11 map error
I noticed an error in File:Delaware Route 11 map.svg. You have the county in Maryland labeled as Caroline County, yet the area you have it labeled in is part of Queen Anne's County (The border between Queen Anne's and Caroline is MD 302, with Queen Anne's north of MD 302).  Dough   4872   04:16, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * ✅ – Easiest way to fix that county label is to get rid of it altogether (was a remnant from when I first started doing maps in 2013). Updated to more current map colors too. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 16:50, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks.  Dough   4872   12:54, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the maps
Just wanted to say thanks for making so many maps that cover the NC system. I really appreciate it!--Ncchild (talk) 23:30, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks! BTW, I fixed the NC 304 map. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 01:41, 20 August 2016 (UTC)

PA State House districts by party (2015)
Thanks for this great map. It obviously needs some updating. Here are the changes since it was last updated:


 * 170th district from Vacant to Republican
 * 161 from Republican to Democratic
 * 156 from Republican to Democratic
 * 115 from Republican to Democratic
 * 58 from Democratic to Republican
 * 51 from Democratic to Republican
 * 49 from Democratic to Republican
 * 10 from Democratic to Republican
 * 197 from Democratic to Vacant

I've done a Paint job to highlight the locations of these districts:

 * I'm not always around here and this would not be a priority for me to update. Updating the file (actually preferably creating a new file to keep the previous session as a record) yourself is an option as well. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 04:30, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

NJ General Assembly composition 2014.svg
Hi,

I noticed that your image NJ General Assembly composition 2014.svg is being used in the article "New Jersey General Assembly, 2016–17 term", but it looks to be out of date. For example, it shows the 16th district as having 2 Republican members, but it currently has 1 Democratic member and 1 Republican member.

Thanks, Jay — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.180.255.218 (talk) 15:51, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I wasn't the one who originally created the article but I've added the correct map to that article. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 16:49, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

Thomas H. Paterniti‎
Thanks for the edits to Thomas H. Paterniti‎. Edits marking someone as just having died are either the result of recent deaths reported in the media or straight-up vandalism. Each time I saw the death added I looked for a source but could not find one. The funeral home announcement is probably adequate for now and I'm sure that a more reliable source will publish an obituary in the near future. Thanks for the edits.

Your Map of Ohio State Route 781
Hello. I noticed a significant error of you created for Ohio State Route 781. The map shows the sign of Ohio State Route 43 on the left hand corner. It is supposed to be Ohio State Route 41. FunksBrother (talk) 15:36, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for catching, I've fixed the shield on the map and updated it to more current standards. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 16:56, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

Source on 1985 Gubernatorial Results Map by Municipality
Can you please provide the source for this map?

File:1985 NJ GovElect Result by municipality.svg — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.102.98.6 (talk • contribs) 16:33, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
 * The first reference following the statement about municipalities won in the article about the 1985 election mentions Kean winning 564/567 municipalities and it provides a list of the three that did not. http://www.nytimes.com/1999/11/15/nyregion/reality-catches-up-utopian-legacy-new-jersey-oasis-debates-high-taxes-suburban.html Please remember to sign your posts with ~ in talk pages as well.

VA 9 map
Thought you might want to know your map on State Route 9 (Virginia) was used in a local paper article last week...in total violation of your license terms, but kinda cool nonetheless. Xenon54 (talk) 17:50, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
 * And I should add -- it's also in this week's dead-tree edition, which is wayyyyy outside your license terms. Xenon54 (talk) 23:28, 19 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Do you happen to have a photo of the hardcopy? I've opened up a discussion on the Commons Village Pump to see if what was used in the newspaper article as the "courtesy" line enough. Thanks for the nose news, neighbor! —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 01:00, 20 October 2017 (UTC)
 * No guarantees I can grab one because I threw it in the recycling this morning, but here's the e-edition. Page 17. Xenon54 (talk) 14:25, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

U.S. Route 202 Business (Montgomeryville–Doylestown, Pennsylvania) map
U.S. Route 202 Business does not run concurrent with the PA 611 bypass of Doylestown but rather ends at it. Do you think you can correct File:US 202 Business (PA) map.svg to reflect this?  Dough   4872   00:02, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Fixed. —Mr. Matté (Talk/Contrib) 03:19, 26 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks.  Dough   4872   20:49, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Troll?
Please don't just throw that word around like that. You can see, on the editor's talk page, that they can be talked with in cordial terms. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 03:13, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
