You can request maps on this page. Your request will then be handled by a participant of the maps department. Instructions and guidelines are provided below. Requests will typically be handled by a member of the maps department; however, they can be completed by anyone willing to take on the request.

Guidelines If you can create a KML file for the article, please do so, and note the existence of the KML in your request. KML files can be imported into GIS software, which may significantly expedite your request. Please be respectful. There is a limit of one requested map per editor and 5 requested maps per state at any time. This is to give the map creators enough time to create the requested maps while working at their own pace and leisure. Please do not request another map until previous requests have closed unless: The additional requests are the result of a GAN, FAC, or ACR reviewer holding or opposing an article in one of those venues over the lack of a map or One month has passed since the request was filed. Any additional requests that do not meet either of these criteria will be removed. We ask that articles be improved to the "B-Class" assessment level before requesting a map. You may request a map for any article, but articles that are B-Class or higher will have their request expedited. Requests for articles assessed as Stub-Class will be removed after three months if it has not been filled and the article has not been improved to at least Start-Class by that time.

Georgia State Route 223

• Action required: Correction to existing map

Monticello Crossroads Scenic Byway

• Class:  Start-Class article
• Action required: New KML map
• Status: New request
• KML: No
• Comments: I am not requesting an interactive map, but I am requesting a KML map for the Monticello Crossroads Scenic Byway. Unlike other highways in the state of Georgia, this scenic byway does not a KML file. The roundabout might look like the US 25 split ass seen here. --2600:1700:6180:6290:94BF:42AB:5F9D:CD7F (talk) 21:04, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

U.S. Route 66 in Texas

• Class:  C-Class article
• Action required: New map
• Status: New request
• KML: No
• Comments: U.S. Route 66 in Texas is in a desperate need of a new interactive map and a new KML file. I've also removed the Google Maps reference; please see this comment on why I've decided to do so. 2600:1700:6180:6290:812C:1BB6:6164:B919 (talk) 02:29, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

Tennessee State Route 155 map change

• Class:  C-Class article
• Action required: Correction to existing map
• Status: New request
• KML:
• Comments: I can't find the exact file. I am requesting that the Woodmont Boulevard section the map file for Tennessee State Route 155 (between US 70S and US 31) be changed to a different color, preferably blue. This is because Woodmont Boulevard technically isn't part of SR 155, but is often mistaken as part of that route, forming a complete ring road with it. As such, mention of Woodmont Boulevard when referring to the entirely of SR 155 is pretty much guaranteed. Bneu2013 (talk) 04:57, 8 January 2026 (UTC)

Cross County Parkway

• Class:  C-Class article
• Action required: Additional map of proposed extension of the Cross County Parkway from Hutchinson River Parkway to the New England Thruway in the vicinity of the Rye Playland Parkway
• Status: New request
• KML: Not between the Cross County and Playland Parkways
• Comments: The current map shows the existing route of the Cross County Parkway and is acceptable in its own right, thought it does not contain the link to southbound Hutchinson River Parkway and from northbound Hutchinson River Parkway. A map of the extension will give readers a clearer idea of the location of the formerly proposed extension. -----User:DanTD (talk) 02:30, 6 March 2026 (UTC)
