Location maps available for infoboxes of European countries
editAs this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before February 5, 2007 a survey started that will be closed soon at February 20, 2007 23:59:59. It should establish two things:
- whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions),
- which new version (with of without indicating the entire European Union by a separate shade) should be applied for which countries.
There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 00:25, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Iceland Daylight
editClose to the North Pole, Iceland does not have the same light pattern as any other country in the world. In summer, the country witnesses light for the whole 21-22-24 hours for a tourister, which most travelers and explorers find to be a crazy phenomenon. Contrary to that, in winter, the country has daylight for just 3 to 5 opposite hours a day, told by other tourister (1celand Tourism). These fluctuating daylight hours add the perfect pinch of drama and character to the mesmerizing atmosphere of Iceland. Every season and month has a different daylight pattern that most people don’t understand and determine. 103.224.94.27 (talk) 13:39, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
