There are many images of the Spanish Empire on the Commons when only one or two would really be neccisary. This one is not being used anywhere at all, so there is no reason to keep it. Furthermore the Portugese never held inner Ethiopia and western Idea to the extent the map dipicts and the Spanish never owned Cambodia at all, it was under the Empire of Siam and later French Indochina. --Maps & Lucy (talk) 02:41, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete Here are examples of absolute duplicates and mildly altered depictions of the Spanish Empire including this one:

1. File:666999.PNG
2. File:666333.PNG
3. File:SpanishEmpire1975.PNG
4. File:SpanishEmpire1492.png
5. File:Imperioespañol1402.PNG
6. File:HispaniaRegnum-World.png
7. File:SpanishEmpireHRE.PNG
8. File:CorrectoImperioEspañol.png
9. File:SpanishEmpireanachronic.png

Watch your step, there are slight differences in the pictures and they show the Spanish Empires during different periods...--92.194.138.82 17:22, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete All these maps were just an attempt by User:EuroHistoryTeacher to enhance his POV, wich was refused in a huge number of discussions (namely en:Spanish Empire). The file File:Imperio espanol-3-.png, although not uploaded by the same user is also redundant, very similar to all these ones and not used at all. I should also be deleted.

Oh, and there is also File:SpanishEmpire1492.PNG by EuroHistoryTeacher. Delete it! The Ogre (talk) 20:09, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And also File:Spanish Empire color.png, File:Hahaharedhatofpatferrick.PNG, File:Spanish Empire total.PNG, File:HRE Charles V.PNG, all by EuroHistoryTeacher. Delete them! In fact, someone should stop this guy... The Ogre (talk) 20:15, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Another similar fabrication by User:Emiliojcp is File:Spanish Overseas Empire and Spanish Hapsburg Realms Without Portugal Empire.jpg. It should also be deleted. The Ogre (talk) 13:03, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And here is still another one by User:Willyvice - File:Imperio.png... The Ogre (talk) 13:06, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I can tell, all the maps shown in the gallery below should be deleted. The Ogre (talk) 13:42, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since they are copies, or variations of:

Which are highly POV and OR maps (as can be seen in the discussions) basically only used in Spanish wikipedias (Castilian, Catalan, Galician, Asturian, etc.), and that should in fact all be replaced bi the correct map shown below. The Ogre (talk) 13:42, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete In agreement with both previous commentaries, The image forms part of a gallery of images done to satisfy EuroHistoryTeacher's individual claims and it is one of many redundant Spanish Empire maps uploaded by him. Trasamundo (talk) 16:49, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Closed. All these maps were nominated or listed in multiple requests and the same comments were spammed to all of them. I am simply closing them since Blurpeace already deleted the files "per Commons:Deletion_requests/File:666333.PNG". Rocket000 (talk) 05:42, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
