As someone who created many of the Indian maps on wikipedia, this is a serious issue which needs a decision as it has been in the gray for quite a while. I have stopped my contribution of Indian maps ever since i realized that my work could have legal repercussions. For now, all the maps come with an explanation of the depiction of the borders and a disclaimer that it may not conform to local laws.
Specimen: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:India_map_blank.svg This is an issue which requires someone with sound legal knowledge to solve, something for the chapter to take up. Let us not forget that we are creating a repository of knowledge, if wikipedia ever hid the truth for the sake of being politically correct, the whole project is pointless. -- j.mp/ArunGanesh
