Problem
Basemap is deprecated and all users should be using Cartopy.
In 2020, matplotlib/matplotlib#16495 removed references to Basemap from matplotlib's documentation. Is it now time to more clearly mark Basemap as deprecated on https://matplotlib.org/basemap/ ?
I do see that the deprecation is described at the bottom of https://matplotlib.org/basemap/ but:
- this statement can be missed (I recently met a user that had missed the information);
- the statement is only on the main Basemap doc page, not in pages linked from there (random example https://matplotlib.org/basemap/users/mapsetup.html).
Suggested improvement
Place bold/red warning statements on all pages of the Basemap documentation, starting from https://matplotlib.org/basemap/
