Map is wrong

This map shows Crimea as part of Russia which it is not. It’s officially part ofUkraine. 2001:1C00:190D:5800:75D3:429A:13F4:F4B5 (talk) 02:07, 11 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Defactoly part of Russia, but internationally recognised as part of Ukraine. Illchy (talk) 07:11, 6 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Unrecognised borders have no place on a map like this. According to the internal law Crimea is Ukrainian territory, currently under Russian occupation. 89.177.29.131 (talk) 11:00, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@89.177.29.131 , agreed. If someone wants to communicate in the map that Russia currently occupies and claims the peninsula, it should have gray hash lines over the yellow to indicate that its internationally recognized status differs from the rest of the territory that IS internationally recognized as Russian. 141.156.49.61 (talk) 19:26, 7 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
The old administrative divisions e.g. for Moscow are used. If someone wishes to replace the map with one to indicate disputed areas, this is fine, but please do not use the one with outdated administrative divisions. Mellk (talk) 19:31, 7 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Recent events

edit

There is no discussion here of recent events, meaning the Ukranian incursion into the Kursk oblast. This could be added to the article with a banner indicating currently unfolding event, and then when it is over keep the information about what happened in a section 3j2j1j (talk) 15:11, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, this is needed. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 16:38, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Wrong map

edit

Greetings @Flemmish Nietzsche, you added the wrong map [1] which shows Ukrainian Crimea as Russian. ManyAreasExpert (talk) 22:19, 17 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, but the map you added is from 2011; it is outdated; among other things, as @Mellk said, the administrative boundaries of Moscow are incorrect. Crimea should not be shown as part of Russia without at least displaying the disputed status, but we at the same time should not be using an outdated map.

Yes, personally I would prefer if it did not include Crimea or if it was marked as disputed, but this is something that has to be dealt with on Commons. We cannot use the lower-quality map that shows old boundaries, e.g. without New Moscow added to the city of Moscow. Mellk (talk) 22:34, 17 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
