Map of Livingston Island and Greenwich Island

 * Reason:Superb map of Livingston Island and Greenwich Island of the South Shetland Islands made by the Antarctic Place-names Commission (website) of Bulgaria in 2005 and kindly released under a free license along with all accompanying photographs (taken personally by Wikipedian Lyubomir Ivanov, Chairman of the Commission). Exceptional resolution and detail. Used in a number of related articles, including cartography.

 * Oppose - Yes, the map is beautiful. But important information is missing, like the scale, the labels of the contour lines, the units of the elevations (meters, feet?) and a legend with the elevation classes. The identification of the map projection would also be nice. - Alvesgaspar 21:11, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Err, "Scale 1: 100 000, Lambert Conformal Conic Projection, Standard Parallels 63°20'S and 76°40'S, Datum WGS84", clearly metric units are used throughout. Assuming you just didn't see it? Todor→Bozhinov 21:24, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I really didn't notice the information about the datum, principal scale and standard parallels. As for the other elements (legend, labels and units), I assume they are really missing (why should it be clear that metric units are used throughout?) - Alvesgaspar 22:25, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Oppose Too much information. If this were stripped of the surrounding images and the ubiquitous text, set as an image map to link to high-quality versions of the surrounding pictures, and if the jpg quality was improved then this would be a potential FP. As it is, it's a postcard from the 80's. ~ trialsanderrors 23:38, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - Not only the elevation classes legend is needed, also the one with land cover classification. The way it is, there is some confusion between elevation contours and land cover limits. Definitely not FP in what cartographic quality is concerned. Alvesgaspar 12:36, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Support version 2 much more direct and to the point --User:Ahadland1234 23:12, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - I still have no idea how big the island is... 8thstar 23:26, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - Yes, a graphical scale is also needed. Alvesgaspar 11:12, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose This would make a great poster to go on a wall, but the image of the island is dwarfed by the text. Images that illustrate wikipedia articles should exist for their imagery, not for their text. Unfortunately, with the fake background and chunky borders layered on top, I don't think it would featured picture quality even without all of the text. Enuja 01:59, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose, I don't believe it's the clearest of maps... and there is plenty of artifact around the text. gren グレン 03:10, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
