  • Support in principle, though I wonder why this particular plate was chosen. Stielers is a wonderful cartographic and historical resource, beautifully executed with lavish detail. (I have this one matted & framed as a kind of souvenir of my Baltic adventures.) Sca (talk) 13:52, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Very useful map, but the JPG artefacting is pretty darn bad. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 16:17, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
