Since this doesn't even say what web site it was found on, I can't see how it can possibly be known to have an acceptable rights situation. - Jmabel | Talk 06:48, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually, me too. Per WP:V, I'd like to see a cross table (nationalities by districts) that the map was based on. Otherwise, it's just a color map painting. (anon) 02:08, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Ah. I actually thought it was from somewhere else and was concerned about copyright, but I see User:Constantzeanu says he made the map himself. But, you're right that does bring up another question: Constantzeanu, what were your sources for this information? - Jmabel | Talk 06:35, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok sorry to answer so late. The map was originally created by Anonimu and he based his map exclusively on the Soviet census of 1989 if I am correct. He did not post it on the article, he just suggested it as a possible map, however everyone sort of ignored it. I contacted him and inquired about it. I took the map and changed it in areas where i knew for sure from census data from 2001 that there were mistakes. Besides the census, the sources I used were [1] and [2] as well as this site for the actual map [3]. Dapiks 16:59, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
