Topic on Help talk:Extension:Kartographer

1. Wikivoyage has group and show parameters which I believer should be incorporated in mapframe and maplink for all. If group is added avoid somehow group names such as: Group: {"type":"ExternalData","service":"geoline","url":"https://maps.wikimedia.org/geoline?getgeojson=1&ids=Q55","properties":{"fill":"#555555","fill-opacity":0.5,"stroke":"#000000","stroke-width":1,"stroke-opacity":1,"title":""}}? Upon examination it appears to me that Kartographer extension has been changed in early May and Wikivoyage maps are now displaying the ugly group name as shown above in the info box for lack of a better name. In addition, these 2 parameters allow some extra flexibility as well when creating maplinks and markers. At one point, Wikidata ID(s) were also shown in legend of a map.
2. The small information box found on Wikivoyage maps (top left) should be also be included on maps - lists groups etc. This allowed users to select or deselect elements for display. Hopefully this feature will not disappear.
3. Maplink does not appear to work correctly if used as a marker. -- Can see subtle differences is you look at my user page -- and user page on meta. Select link and pop up map does not show External data or drawn shape whereas user page on meta does.

Wikivoyage uses the group and show parameters... This allows for multiple mapframes on an article page. Using these parameters allows to display selections (or all groups) on different mapframes. When used in a maplink - these can be displayed on a mapframe using group and show. If the maplink is used as a marker one just doesn't go to a position on a blank popup map but rather a popup map with other points etc. being displayed as well. Maplinks can be placed on a page but hidden from actual page display by using text="" class="no-icon". This type of maplink could be a point or polygon etc. belonging to a particular group and displayed in either a mapframe or then popup map is displayed.

This would provide for some diversity in maps. Just a thought! -- ~~~~
