[edit]This map has been suggested deleted. I sympathise with why it was nominated for deletion, since Crimea is Ukrainian and occupied, whilst the author of the map (Stasyan117, who by their own account “lives in Russia”), has shaded it as Russian. The map may therefore easily be perceived as Russian propaganda. Currently, the map is used across 18 language editions of Wikipedia, and on some of them on several pages, e.g., on 32 pages on the Czech version. As such, it may be perceived as poisoning rather a large number of pages with propaganda. Why is it then allowed to be kept? Isn't Wikipedia supposed to be neutral and fact-based?
