NC districts
If you're going to add maps, you can't just make them yourself on google and link to them. That's user-supplied content which is unsupported, see WP:OR. —GoldRingChip 22:45, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

GoldRingChip Well, those maps don't exactly exist anywhere other than at http://cdmaps.polisci.ucla.edu/. I'm only taking what exists already on that website and making it more readable and user-friendly. Nothing in this process is my original work, either. I downloaded the Shapefiles from the website I shared (and cited), converted them to KMLs and uploaded them into Google Maps. Wikipedia's Congressional District pages are sorely lacking data on historical district boundaries, and I'm just trying to find a good way to fill that void.

Keep it up!
I love that you're eager to make substantial changes to these articles. How can I help you? —GoldRingChip 22:46, 25 January 2021 (UTC)
