It seems the title is incorrect if it concerns only LWF member churches. I also wonder, why Ethiopia i.e. Mekane Yesus church is missing? --Periegetes (talk) 17:31, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to the above mentioned problems, it is important cartographic rule that you should not present absolute data on chroropleth map. Absolute data should be presented with proportional symbols. This has been done here:
Membership of Lutheran World Federation churches.

I agree with Periegetes regarding figures. If we are saying "this many Lutherans" and then saying "these major bodies are not included", we're not really being accurate. It would seem prudent to attempt to include figures of church bodies affiliated with the LCMS who are not included, otherwise we're perpetuating the myth that only the LWF represents Lutheranism.
