Islamic State and non-IS affiliated Isalmist groups[edit]

The map should have distinctive coloring for Islamic State forces and non-IS affiliated Islamist militants such as those belonging to the Shura Councils of Benghazi and Derna (Ansar al-Shariah, Abu Salim Martyrs Brigade, Libya Shield 1 etc.) Obviously there should not be places for all these groups on the maps, but instead of having just 'Ansar al-Shariah' in the same color as Islamic State forces, why not have 'Mujaheddin Shura Councils' in a color separate from IS? For example, in the Syrian Civil War map, al-Nusra Front is portrayed in white. It is important for there not to be any confusion, becuase these groups have engaged in hostilities with each other, particular in the recent Battle of Derna.

StanTheMan87, Template:Lebanese_Insurgency_detailed_map ([[talk) is the basis for this map, I don't know enough about the situation on the ground to do it unilaterally. Banak (talk) 14:20, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Banak, I'd edit it myself, but I am unfamiliar on how to assign different shades of color to different regions of the map. I have posed this same question on the Template:Libyan Civil War detailed map talk page, so I should get some consensus on this soon. StanTheMan87 (talk) 15:07, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
