[edit]

There is something slightly odd about the page history of this and Figure-Ground in that the article seems to have started at Figure-Ground with a logged-in user Rjessicaturner, then was copy-and-pasted to figure-ground by an anon user, before being moved here. --Henrygb 22:52, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Robinson citation

[edit]

Can someone who knows please put the full citation for "Robinson et al., 1995" mentioned in the body into the References section at the foot? Thanks. 24.155.88.186

Deprodding

[edit]

While the article is somewhat essay-like and howto-like in tone and the writing style needs to be improved, I'm not convinced that this is synthesis. Here is an external link with a section on figure/ground relationships in maps. Emphasizing certain features in map design is certainly a notable aspect of cartography. A number of the article's sources look reliable to me. Because of these, I don't think WP:SYNTH is uncontroversial; this should probably be discussed at AfD. --Mark viking (talk) 20:25, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
