Error in US map.
Could you fix United States Koppen climate map: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USA_map_of_K%C3%B6ppen_climate_classification.svg? It has nonexestent Cfa climates in California.

Regarding your new Achaemenid map.
Hello Ali Zifan,

I already left a new comment on the talk page of the Achaemenid Empire. The new map looks sweet, just I am completely convinced that while its reliable and sources, its 70+ years old. Darius and Xerxes conquered much larger territories in Europe, as we know. All of Paeonia, Thrace, Macedon, most of the Black Sea coasts, all of Greece to the north of the Isthmus of Corinth, were added by Darius I and Xerxes I. I can give you the needed sources to re-add these territories so you can add the sources to the source description on Wikimedia. Ok? Basically the territories in Europe should show like on these maps -. If you could fix that for now, that would be great. Bests - LouisAragon (talk) 12:58, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
 * ✅.Hey, I updated the map based on the territories are indicated in this map and what you said.  Ali Zifan   20:27, 20 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Btw, if you have some spare time, could you fix this map as well? Some hoaxer added Iranian Balochistan to the Mauryan Empire, which is total nonsense and no historian has ever agreed upon an extent beyond Pakistani Balochistan. Thus, the map must include Iranian balochistan to the Seleucid territories. Could you do that if you happen to have some spare time? You're much better with editing maps than me, namely ;-) Tashakor mikonam wasse hamme karrat. Haha. Khoda hafez ;-) - LouisAragon (talk) 13:28, 18 October 2015 (UTC)


 * I have time to make its vector and fix it as I've already made it's orthographic projection. If it is possible, please put the links of some historical maps about Seleucid territories so I can make it as precise as it is possible, especially for the territories in the east part including Baluchistan (as you mentioned). Thank you!  Ali Zifan   20:27, 20 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Salam Ali, I can give you several top-notch sources that confirm that rule never extended to include Iranian Balochistan. Can you use those for now while I find a map? Bests - LouisAragon (talk) 18:16, 22 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Hello LouisAragon. I uploaded a new vector map of Selecuid Empire map based on three sources. I tried to make the best combination and make it is as precise as I could.  Ali Zifan   02:31, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Hey, Wikimedia maps are not sources and should not be used as sources. Your map contains many fallacies therefore (Even though it was obviously not your intention). Atropatene, large parts of Anatolia, etc were never part of the Seleucids. The previous map was entirely correct, except for Iranian Balochistan, which was part of the Seleucids, and not the Mauryas. If you could model this new vector map you made PRECISELY after this previous map, but just could add Iranian Balochistan to it, then it would be perfect. Could you also please fix at the same time as well? It just needs Iranian Balochistan to be part of the Seleucids, thats all. Im just basically asking you this favour as we don't want a factually wrong map to linger forth on Wikimedia. - LouisAragon (talk) 21:59, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * The map that I've uploaded before may had some problems, because I tried to make a combination from different sources. Now, I updated the map based on reliable source (Willamette University). This map may look correct to you but it doesn't have any sources so that is why I didn't make the new map exactly based on that unsourced map.  Ali Zifan   22:46, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Btw, the current Achaemenid Empire map; after which map is it currently modeled? Could you tell me that? :) After the one you linked above in reply to my previous comment, aka an already existing Wikimedia map, or this one? The latter which UCaetano also agreed upon? It should be modeled upon this map I'm linking right here. Btw, don't forget to add Macedon to the map ;-). Khoda hafez - LouisAragon (talk) 00:52, 23 October 2015 (UTC)


 * It mostly is based on this one but I actually considered this too. UCaetano is totally agree with the this source; actually he suggested it. I also updated the map based on History of Persia's request about Egypt and Maka too.


 * Yes modeling it after that map which we ageed upon, aka this one is the best indeed, but you can obviously combine it with that older Academic map too. Only Macedon needed to be added to it, but for the rest, its totally perfect! Btw, mate, History of Persia is a long-term vandal and blocked hoaxer and sockpuppet whos indeffed. So it would be a good thing to revert those last changes back, at least anything he requested! ;-) - LouisAragon (talk) 21:59, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Further, I uploaded a version of Achaemenid map under different kings conquests based on this source this and this too. Ali Zifan   02:31, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Good, good, that's great! - LouisAragon (talk) 21:59, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * PS: sorry I'm asking you several things now, excuse me for that, but could you perhaps if you happen to have some time to update this map? The colour for Iran needs to be one shade darker, just like the one Georgia has. Tashakor mikonam yebar digeh, Ali. - LouisAragon (talk) 01:04, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * You're fine!😸 I updated that map.  Ali Zifan   02:31, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Also, this great map you created needs to have its borders in Anatolia and the Caucasus corrected per this reference map which is used. I know you intended to model it 100% after that map, but there are some minor adjustments that need to be made as you can see, if you look closely. F.e the largest extent in Anatolia comprised a bigger territory as you can see. Tashakor mikonam yebar digeh ;-) - LouisAragon (talk) 15:27, 24 October 2015 (UTC)


 * . I really didn't see any problem on Caucasus part, but totally I updated it. Ali Zifan   02:31, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Tashakor mikonam! Bests - LouisAragon (talk) 21:59, 25 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Btw,, you can add this sourcing for the inclusion of Macedon to all the Achaemenid maps as I requested above. Bests - LouisAragon (talk) 22:07, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I will. Thank you for giving the source.  Ali Zifan   18:31, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

Do you have an email address?
Salam Ali Zifan,

How are you doing? Chetori? :) I would like to thank you very much once again for your edits on those maps! I genuinely appreciate it, great work. I wondered, do you perhaps have an email adres? I would like to ask some things if you don't mind, and perhaps we can work together even easier from there.
 * Hello and your welcome! My email address is :alizf.wiki@gmail.com.  Ali Zifan   03:59, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

Btw, looking at -, , do you think you can fix some area's, if I would tell you what? I have some references already, but I can easily get the rest that are needed. Its all very simple and not time-consuming work (not much needs to be changed), just we need someone who's good with editing pictures, The user who created it (thumbs to him) created decent, more modern maps, but then disappeared from Wiki. The map aint finished yet at all, but he already just spammed them everywhere before leaving.. :/ Could you let me know the answers on both of these questions and if you want to correct this together with me? I will delete your email as soon as I have read it.
 * Yes. You may message me on my email or talk page if you want.  Ali Zifan   04:02, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

PS: you greatly updated the Did you base the addition of the territory of Macedon upon  Dont worry, your new drawing to add Macedon was totally correct and well sourced, but I just wanted to know for myself, that's all. Also, needs to have its borders corrected per the borders here,. Also, there are some corrections to be made on the territories in the Caucasus, and Black Sea regions of Georgia, Abkhazia, Ukraine etc, as you can see on our reference map. Khoda hafez for now, my friend :-) (and sorry for asking much from you) - LouisAragon (talk) 01:35, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I will fix those. Thank you for the notice. Ali Zifan   04:05, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

Could you fix this map?
Hey, could you so that it comprises all the territory of what is nowadays Azerbaijan Republic as well as all of Eastern Georgia? Just the entire eastern part of Georgia if you would split the nation in twice. Could you do that? It was partly fixed by user HistoryofIran over a year ago, but he omitted these regions due to a lack of time. Just needs a minor extra drawing of territory. Thank you! PS: I only read your reply to my last messages right now, you can expect my email pretty soon! :-) - LouisAragon (talk) 02:23, 23 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Hello. I will fix that as soon as I can. Thank you!  Ali Zifan   16:00, 24 November 2015 (UTC)


 * , ok, thanks a lot! It's a much needed fix the map needs. Btw, excuse me I haven't mailed yet, been very busy, and I don't want to form some half-written email without proper stuff. Anyways, expect it coming in due time. ;-) Btw. You added a name climate map to the Iran article, but I believe you erroneously removed one legend subsection. I re-added it, just in case. Btw I wonder, the Caspian Region of Iran has the same Koppen classification like the rest of Iran? Its stated like that on the map namely. Sounds like nonsense to me! - LouisAragon (talk) 22:54, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello. I actually made that map exactly based on the Köppen climate classification(world map) and the Caspian region was the same as the rest part. Ali Zifan   01:18, 30 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, it looks odd to me. Doesnt it to you? So central Iran has the same climate as Caspian Iran?... Haha - LouisAragon (talk) 13:53, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
Thanks! Ali Zifan

Edit .SVG maps
Salam Mr. Zifan Thank you for your maps, it's a great project editing through SVG, I am new to WikiMedia, started in the maps field and really want to learn the modern ways to use them, can you please post a guide on a better way to edit maps easier, or provide the software that you use to make editing the vectors easier, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by YemArabSf (talk • contribs) 17:19, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Hey Ali Zifan, I'd be interested in this, too. Besides that, how do I get programs which are able to edit .svg-files? With Gimp, I can open and edit them but I can't save them as .svg-file. Also I'd like to help improving the Templates for these maps. I found out that this is to be done over the Modules. But how can I get the exact coordinates of a location, town etc.? And of course I want to thank you for your great work here, it's really great!--Ermanarich (talk) 18:37, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Hello Ermanarich. Thanks for the feedback. I mostly use Adobe Illustrator and Inkscape to create and edit SVG files. Inkscape is a free software and you can download it from here. For making the map based on module, you can get the coordinate of the points (cities) base on Module documentation and transfer the coordinates into a software or redraw some parts like I did with some of the maps based on different sources.  Ali Zifan   22:32, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

Needed a bit to figure it out, but the .svg-thing works now. Thank you very much! Only with the Module/Template-thing I still have a problem. I actually meant how I can add new points/cities/etc. The coordinates of existing ones are already in the module, but how can I add a new point at a correct place? And what did you mean with this: "[...] redraw some parts like I did with some of the maps based on different sources"? Again thank you for the fast help!--Ermanarich (talk) 19:56, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

Hey, it's me again. I'm now quite active in updating some of the maps of civil wars you created. There is only one problem: Which font style did you use to write the town's names and is this font style available on Inkscape? Thanks in advance, --Ermanarich (talk) 11:15, 22 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi. It is Arial Regular; But remember to "create outline" after saving a file because the fonts may appear differently on preview. Also thank you for your great contributions.  Ali Zifan   02:28, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

New York State Climate Map
Hey there! You have done excellent work on illustrating New York's climate regions. One minor problem with your map is that New York City actually has a humid subtropical climate (using both the 0 C and -3 C thresholds) so it should be shaded in the color for humid subtropical climate. Still, your work on not only this page but on a number of pages is greatly appreciated. G. Capo (talk) 03:41, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Paramecium diagram
Your image was quite nice-looking, but I had to remove it from the Paramecium page because it was not accurate. You put the anal pore at the anterior pole of the cell, ahead of the oral groove. It belongs in the posterior quarter of the cell (the narrower end, which in this image is at the top of the drawing). It should be on the same side of the cell as the oral groove, and just a bit behind it. Deuterostome (talk)  12:20, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

US Koeppen climate maps
Hello, I’ve made versions of my Koeppen climate maps in the preferred SVG format and added them to their respective state wiki pages. If you had any concerns about the maps beyond their not being in SVG format, and wish to revert then back to yours, I was hoping we could discuss it here. Thanks! Redtitan (talk) 21:00, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Every File with ".svg" extention doesn't mean it is really vector. Please read this if you want. If you zoom in the climate maps that you've upload, pixels in climate regions are still visible. Although with that, I am Ok and with your files since ,at least, the texts are in vector and I appreciate the works.  Ali   02:52, 10 August 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the reply. I noticed you're changing the author credits of the maps to Oregon State University. I calculated the Koeppen types using raw climate data from Oregon State University (mean temperatures, max/min temperatures, precipitation), but they were not involved in the steps of map creation in any way (symbolizing, text, object placement, data clipping, Koeppen type calculation, etc.). I properly credit them as a data source. There are many examples of other maps on wikimedia commons that are made sourcing outside data, while the author remains the creator, your maps included. I'll be reverting the author credits back to myself. Redtitan (talk) 04:09, 10 August 2016 (UTC)

Hey Ali,

Could you perhaps correct so that it shows the borders per ? The non-RS source applied to the file is simply mentioning bogus borders. Thanks much in advance! - LouisAragon (talk) 01:28, 11 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, and I just recalled this matter as well. Some time ago, I asked whether you could fix this language map. Do you vaguely recall that? You correctly told back then, that you couldn't change the map as it was protected. You are better versed with the rules of pics and stuff, so I wondered; would it be possible for us if we'd upload a new version of the map under a different name? By that we could still "fix the map", if you get what I mean. If yes, please let me know. I still should have the sources for those needed fixes laying somewhere in my files.


 * Lastly! Is there anything else that I can help you with, such as, providing sources for other maps you want to create/or have created? Please don't hesitate to let me know! - LouisAragon (talk) 01:28, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello Ali! First, a deep and sincere thank you for all the wonderful map work you've create for the Wikimedia Community. I'm very interested in historical mapping and using GIS-based vector information to build programmable maps... kind of like Google Maps or OpenStreetMap. Do you have any GIS or georeferenced versions of your various svg maps?
