Hallo Sven. Image:Map of Ukraine political.png can be listed in the Wikipedia:List of images since you've placed it under a more-free licence than the GFDL. Anyone to use it and long they credit you, and the GFDL also requires such credit, so it's fine to include it there in my opinion. Angela. 12:09, Sep 30, 2004 (UTC)
Hello Steschke. I've created WikiProject Ukrainian subdivisions, and listed your name there as contributor of the map (thanks very much, by the way). Regards. —Michael Z. 04:15, 2004 Oct 4 (UTC)
Maps on each oblast'
Hi. Thanks for offering a version of the map highlighting individual oblasti. We can definitely use the individual ("klein") oblast' maps on each oblast' page.
ToDo
I hate to ask you to do more work, but can you produce a version with thick boundaries, suitable for display at small sizes? It probably doesn't need any labels, just the major boundaries and coastlines. Please have a look at /Infobox#Proposal to see what I mean (note: the infobox format isn't finalized yet).
like this? Or without rivers but with see? --Steschke 23:01, 2004 Oct 5 (UTC)
File:Map of Ukraine political simple L’viv.png
- Wow, you work fast! This looks great (I've added an example at /Infobox#Proposal). How would you feel about leaving in the seas, and other countries' boundary and fill? That would help to visually orient the border regions relative to their neighbours.
- Not sure about the rivers -- they also help with orientation, especially Dnipro, but they make the map a little bit busy at very small sizes. If pressed, I would vote to leave them in, since they don't visually interfere with the highlighted oblast'.
- Good work! —Michael Z. 14:10, 2004 Oct 6 (UTC)
I've also been working on a map graphic. It's not as detailed as yours, but it would be suitable for the location maps without requiring a lot more work.
By the way, have you seen Brama's Ukrainian map server? It has scans of top maps, some of which may be suitable for tracing more features from (e.g. this map, 128 kB jpeg). There are also detailed road maps at lemko.org.

Copied from Michael Z's talk:
- How do you think about leaving in Dnipro only because it's an important landmark (en?)? I will add seas, and other countries' boundary and fill again then. Actually I've only a little time problem - have to work from early morning till after midnight this week. --Steschke 07:14, 2004 Oct 7 (UTC)
- That sounds great. There's no rush, do it when you have the time. I'll insert the maps into the infoboxes (don't know if that will be so quick anyway), and you can update them at your leisure. Thanks for the good work. —Michael Z. 23:37, 2004 Oct 7 (UTC)
Your new version is excellent! Thanks for all of the work. I've gathered some up-to-date data for the project infoboxes, and I'm hoping to get some input from all the contributors. Then we'll get them out on the oblast pages. Please have a look.
Wow, you are fast! I'm going to sleep now. Good work. '—'Michael Z.
