A favor, if you would

I'm just about 100% sure this image is a copyvio; the uploader has a long history of image copyright issues on en.wiki (hasn't edited here since February), and Zoya isn't someone who's likely to be sighted anywhere near Burma at the moment, if you know what I mean. As my foreign language of choice is Japanese, not Burmese, I can't be 100% sure, but I've already tagged another image he uploaded to commons as a copyvio; any chance you could take a look at this? Thanks a ton. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 20:58, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

Yes, that's a copyvio. I found it on telegraph website. This one is also a copyvio since it is used without fair use rationale. In fact, many many images from Burmese Wikipedia are copyvio. The contributors there, despite their good faiths, do not understand much about copyright.SWH^®^talk 05:12, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I figured as much; I was involved in cleaning up from the IEP fiasco, it seems to be a theme with south and southeast Asian countries. Even here an en.wiki, a disproportionate number of editors at CCI are from that general demographic. Thanks again. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 19:00, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Konbaung maps

Hi, I answered your question on my talk page. Now, it's my turn to ask you for help. When you get a chance, could you draw the political maps of Konbaung Dynasty? I'd like at least two.

1. Prior to the First Anglo-Burmese war. It'll include the present-day Burma, Manipur, Assam, and southern Yunnan.
2. British annexation of Burma per Anglo-Burmese War. Please include the years. Also include the annexation of Karenni States in 1875. The cis-Salween Shan states were annexed in 1888; trans-Salween Shan states in 1890. Chin state in 1896.

If you really have time...

1. Burma in late 1767. Include present-day Burma except Arakan, Laos, southern Yunnan, Lan Na, and Siam. The Siam part should have a different color since Hsinbyushin never had full control over it. Thanks. Hybernator (talk) 00:48, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your reply. However, I really do not have enough time right now. I'm fed up with the exams. I'll try to draw the maps next month. I'll try my best. SWH^®^talk 13:50, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
