I reverted your destructive edit to Jammu and Kashmir. A map showing Kashmir's position in India doesn't suddenly become useless because one state way to its south isn't shown. The solution in that situation is to explain on the talk page (in this case, Talk:Jammu and Kashmir) what should be changed and wait for someone to improve the map, not to junk it.

- @Ikan Kekek: I wanted to use an updated map but some Jammu and Kashmir boundaries in it were not correct so I removed it. I re-added the original map but removed it again as it did not have an Indian state (Telangana) in it. It was not my intention to be disruptive or destructive, just wanted to show the correct thing but couldn't find a correct map. If you believe the map is fine, its okay, but can you please use the non-hatched version of the map instead File:Jammu and Kashmir in India (de-facto).svg it would be more helpful for readers.

- Agreed. That's certainly a better map. I don't know how to edit a static map, though, so I posted a message on that talk page. I'll switch the maps in the meantime. Ikan Kekek (talk) 20:58, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for switching the map. As for the Telangana issue I've started a discussion on wikipedia:Talk:Jammu and Kashmir so that new map files can be uploaded (the best possible way to do that would be to just add a Telangana line to the maps). Gotitbro (talk) 21:04, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks. Maybe they'll take care of it faster than Wikivoyagers. Ikan Kekek (talk) 09:35, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
