This deletion discussion is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive. You can read the deletion policy or ask a question at the Village pump. If the circumstances surrounding this file have changed in a notable manner, you may re-nominate this file or ask for it to be undeleted.

The information represented in the map has no clear original source. Subsequent changes have some sources but there is no reliable way to verify or to date the map (i.e. "As of 2012.."). Jclaxp (talk) 12:53, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely needs to be sourced. That's been a problem for years. Not sure deletion is the solution, but at least that would get people's attention. Kwamikagami (talk) 16:38, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Setting a deletion request just because of an unclear data source for the content is wrong. Template Datasource missing to be used.--Pechristener (talk) 02:01, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @Pechristener. How would I go about resolving this and changing to that instead? Jclaxp (talk) 12:54, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My approach would be:
a) find an appropriate data source (or maybe, more then one is required)
b) make an updae of the map
c) adapt the source description
d) remove the tag {{Datasource missing}} Pechristener (talk) 13:56, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: If it needs a source, provide a source. Deleting the file does not good. TheZcuber (talk) 06:32, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Inaccuracy isn't a valid reason for complete deletion. Remove the image from articles until it's fixed or tag them with [citation needed] to make it clear. -Vipz (talk) 04:59, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: For the reasons given above. Remove from articles until work is done if necessary, otherwise, it might be best to indicate that the image is undergoing work by placing a copy of the image with an "out of service for verification" stamp on it. That way, it may avoid people from using the image during its "outage" for things like school papers. If it is satisfactory, perhaps that could be made the plan if or when something similar happens to other images. I only wish that I had the ability to work on it personally. - Kjkolb (talk) 17:57, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
