Infobox map of the English Wikipedia article "Pahlavi dynasty"

Hello, Hoshie, the editor of the map "File:BlankMap-World-1970.png". The map "File:Iran (orthographic projection).svg" is used as the infobox map of the English Wikipedia article "Pahlavi dynasty". Pahlavi dynasty of Persia/Iran existed from 1925 to 1979, so it is wrong to use the map "File:Iran (orthographic projection).svg", which shows the current borders of every countries, political entities and other territories, as the infobox map of the English Wikipedia article "Pahlavi dynasty". Thus, I suggest you can creat another map, which can be named as "File:Iran map 1970.png", partly copies the map "File:BlankMap-World-1970.png", but enlarges Western Asia to the whole map, and shows Iran in dark green. The new map I suggest creating can be properly used as the infobox map of the English Wikipedia article "Pahlavi dynasty". I sincerely hope you can accept my advice. Thanks a lot!

Unnecessary blur on M130?

On the m130 image used in Palm m100 series, you added a blur to the screen of photographed m130. This seems unnecessary to me, as I'd think this would fall well within fair use, and the blurring compromises the picture's usefulness in illustrating what the color screen of the m130 typically looked like. I don't see that merely showing the icons on the screen would run afoul of Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. (I see someone else also complained about the blurring in the article's talk page, back in 2010.) Can you explain your reasoning for why the actual screen should not be shown? You mentioned some sort of iPhone image precedent, but countless Wikipedia articles on devices do show copyrighted software running. —Undomelin (talk) 22:48, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
