Israeli government map site stopped working (please copy this somewhere else if this isn't the right place)At some point in the past few months, the meaning of the "?c" argument at https://www.govmap.gov.il/ changed. It used to be latitude and longitude, but now it is coordinates in the Israeli Transverse Mercator grid. For example, the 1940s map for Ni'ilya used to be at GeoHack misfires with Google Maps (Satellite View)When instantiated as: https://tools.wmflabs.org/geohack/geohack.php?pagename=ARA_San_Juan_(S-42)¶ms=45_56_59_S_59_46_22_W_ Google Maps (satellite view) is missing the zoom controls!

Link to LROC Quickmap as new mapping provider for Lunar locations.I suggest LROC Quickmap by Arizona State University as an addition to current external mapping providers. It is official, feature rich with many data layers and has very easy URL defined format to create links like following URL creates a point location to 33.33°N, 33.33°W but polygons and paths can also be defined to mark regions, rover tracks, abstract features etc. https://quickmap.lroc.asu.edu/?extent=-180,-90,180,90&proj=16&features=33.33,-33.33 Quickmap has many map projections methods like Orthographic(far side, near side, south and north pole), Equidistant cylindrical and 3D globe which can be useful for certain locations, for example polar locations are better visible in orthographic projection compared to 3D globe and Equidistant cylindrical.

Protection noteFollowing up on a request on my talk page: (Special:PermaLink/921775139#Please_adjust_page_protection). This is a rather special style of template, it is fully move protected as it is called from external sources thus the full-move protection; it has been the subject of vandalism which can also be very disruptive, thus the unusual ECP protection. I may have otherwise used TPROT edit protection - but it has routine good faith maintainers and this is an anti-vandalism control. — xaosflux Talk 20:27, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

I made an issue on the Bitbucket before realizing that it's apparently extremely out of date and not actually used for ongoing development (or maybe it's the backend, idk):
I see that the code for Apple Maps is as follows: Apple Maps (Apple devices only)
| [//maps.apple.com/?q={latdegdec},{londegdec}&t=m Map]
|[//maps.apple.com/?q={latdegdec},{londegdec}&t=k Satellite]
It doesn't seem to be possible to deeplink directly to "Satellite" view on DuckDuckGo, but something like the following should work: Apple Maps (web view)
| colspan="2" | [//duckduckgo.com/?q={latdegdec},{londegdec}&iaxm=maps Map/Satellite]
I'm not sure if that's how you'd want to indicate the click-through for "Satellite" view, or if you'd prefer naming it "DuckDuckGo" rather than "Apple Maps (web view)". If you'd prefer marking it as "DuckDuckGo", I made an SVG version of the DuckDuckGo favicon out of the copy of the logo used on Wikipedia. FWIW it would be easier to contribute to this if you were to include it on the Wikimedia GitHub rather than exclusively maintaining the code on Wikipedia itself. — Elsie Hupp 69.112.106.230 (talk) 05:13, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

JavaScript disabled or out of map range.On slow connections, the map says "JavaScript disabled or out of map range." for several seconds before the image finally loads. The problem is: it should say, "JavaScript disabled or out of map range... or just wait a few seconds." Yes, there is no way to make the user's $1-a-month Internet faster, unless he spends more.

Need two sets of Popular: zoomed in and outWe see Popular ------- Bing Maps Google Maps Google Earth OpenStreetMap These are great, but their zoom levels are all only "way zoomed out". And to zoom in to see the actual building, etc, in most map services the target slides off the edge as we hit the "+" button over and over, and we have to reposition: big hassle. Therefore there really should be a second row of choices, like Popular ------- Zoomed out: Bing Maps Google Maps Google Earth OpenStreetMap Zoomed in: Bing Maps Google Maps Google Earth OpenStreetMap (Not repeated icons though. But still some kind of table.) That way people who want to see where the object is in relation to national borders could click one of the former, and people who need to see what building the incident took place in could click the latter! Neither is better, I'm just saying give the user easy choice. Just like one needs bi-focal prescription glasses! Jidanni (talk) 11:58, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Google Maps links don't work on mobileOn a mobile phone (Android 13 / Pixel 6 but I doubt it matters), clicking on the Google Maps icon results in the app opening but without any address selected.

Robert.Allen (talk) 18:55, 16 March 2024 (UTC) Splitting Global/Trans-national servicesI've reverted an edit by Thinker78 - diff which split the Global/Trans-national services table into two, based on the editor's perception of which maps are proprietary and which are not. I did not find the change useful, and it seemed ideological in nature. As a user, I'm interested in selecting the Global/Trans-national map of my choice, and am not interested in the commercial status of the map provided. My preference is to see all maps in a specific domain listed in a single table. I note that no other tables in the template are spit based on commercial status. I have asked the user to gain consensus before remaking such a change; I do not expect that such consensus will materialise. --Tagishsimon (talk) 16:35, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 24 June 2024The photograph of the entrance to the William Hobart Vacation Home is wrong. The address has been corrected from 905 Polecat Road to 995 Polecat Road on the National Register of Historic Places. Please remove the existing photograph as it is the entrance to the wrong property. Thank you. AHBravo (talk) 17:10, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
