Timeline of Indian history

Hi Footy2000. Thanks for your work on diagrams on Indian subjects. I came across File:Timeline_of_Indian_history.jpg recently. I greatly appreciate your work on it, but I had some concerns I was hoping you could address. The color scheme - unintentionally, I'm sure - creates some POV issues, in that it implies a common religious identity for a number of polities from the IVC to the modern era, whereas some of those were pre-Vedic and some had a complicated relationship with religion (at a time when Buddhism and Jainism were widespread). I wonder if you would be open to creating a version that does not attempt to assign a color scheme by religion. I would encourage the use of such a revision on en.wiki.

Hello. Thanks for the review. The colour scheming was intended to distinguish native Indian political entities from the invaders and colonisers. Regardless, I agree with the changes as it is merely a colour on the visible spectrum at the end of the day. However, the updates with svg variant are long due and would be completed soon with the aforementioned changes. Cheers! Footy2000 (talk) 02:43, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Question

Hey Footy2000! I jsut saw your new Namma Metro map and just want to say its absolutely incredible. I was wondering how did you make it as I would like to make similar type of maps as well! It would be incredible if you could help me out :)! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Naren.Ayinala (talk • contribs) 04:17, 24 December 2024 (UTC) Best Naren.Ayinala (talk)

Hello! Thank you for the compliment. I am very glad that people are liking it and finding it useful. I made it using Adobe Illustrator, but if you’re looking for something free, Inkscape is a solid alternative. It’s a bit different but gets the job done once you figure it out. Best wishes.
