This map is very informative, and surely adding in an explanation of the colours is a simple matter. Not that it's difficult to guess... Keep.

Deleted. Please note that Wikipedia is not in the webhosting business. If an image is not used right now and is not going to be used in the immediate future, it is either uploaded to Commons if it might be useful to someone or it is deleted. In this case, this image is completely superceded by the Commons one. --

The following was added to the talk page of the image by the uploader:
The user who has proposed deletion of this photo has not provided a cogent argument to support her/his position. The photo belongs to OSO and is factual representation of real kids (see photo) during an OSO class. This same user has chosen to grafitti our page and accuse us of creating an advertisement. In fact, we are a nationally recognized non-profit ocean-going education program that serves mostly low-income youth. Please refer to several external sources, including the US national marine sanctuary program, and hundredds of school districts we serve in central California and beyond. It is up to the user who has proposed deletion to explain why he/she is harassing us.

In response, the image is still an orphan at this point. The article that it claims to be from and that I "grafitti"ed is
O'Neill Sea Odyssey and I did not ever edit that article. In now reviewing that article I do have some issues; I do believe it is written in very corporate speak and possibly is
spam and the creator has some
conflict of interest issues. Also, the article fails to have any reliable sources referenced, the only source is its own website. I know these issues are better suited to an AfD of the article, but mistakes were made about my actions. As a note, at this point, I am not going to nominate the article for deletion.--

Fair use reason is that the image is of a character in a comic book, video game, etc. This is not true, it is a copyrighted piece of artwork by a still-living artist and does not fall under fair use in any way, shape, or form, despite that it is otherwise admirably suited to the article. —

OR, AB, likely not correct license, souce website states "copyright 2007 all rights reserved" (though image was uploaded in 2006, likely same license existed then)

These .png files created by TwinsMetsFan have all been recreated as .svg files posted to the Commons. All links to the .png files have been replaced, so they are orphans. TwinsMetsFan indicated after a previous nomination of 20 on
29-Jan that he would have speedy tagged the images. Based on
this discussion I am bringing all of them here in a mass nomination. I have notified TwinsMetsFan of this mass nomination by posting a link on his talk page to here. —

An SVG version
already exists on Commons and is used in the article. The PNG file is not used anywhere (orphaned) and has no apparent meaning as a stand-alone image (unencyclopaedic). —
