- SBU*
  Edit: You know what, never mind, SBU is a CIA branch anyway.
Seems unbiased to me
As expected, the 100+ edits version is...
why is Russia blank? does no one in Russia edit wikipedia??
- Looks like it's filtered by 5 to 99 edits. Maybe the 100 to more is so overwhelming russian that would not show the other countries.
  It would need to be seen if a map of russian speakers would show the same results.
  
  Russia doesn't show up when filtering by 100+ edits either. Does Wikipedia ban Russian IPs?

  Nope actually.
  Source Link
- I have the same question. You’d think the majority of edits would come from Russia when the content is about Russia. Then again it may be because of conflicts between the west and Russia, considering Wikipedia is at least western leaning.
About what you'd expect from CIApedia. Disappointed to see Kirgizstan so heavily featured, but not surprised.
I wonder what the distribution of edits is between Ukraine and the Donbas
- I wonder if Donbass users even get registered as Ukrainian. Their internet is likely provided by Russia so the IP addresses they're given might just come up as Russian.
  
  good point
How do you access this graph?
I have a school assignment it would be useful for.

  Thank you!
Surprised Baltics aren't darker
- They are probably trying to forget Russian right now to not be deported by their fash regimes.
what are these kyrgyz up to???
- There is a lot of western funded NGO activity in the Central Asian countries and a lot of effort being made by the imperialists to stir up trouble, instability and resentment toward Russia and China there.
- Didn't it get couped by pro-west gits?
A bit more accurate version
- I can't spot any difference.
  
  I tried to hilight Langley but Lemmy scales the picture down and the dot disappears
- Think you're off by about 500 miles there unless there's some deep lore about South Carolina
  Link to the page plus a higher-res screenshot:
  
  I'll take 500 mile accuracy any day, my knowledge of US geography is like 90% from movies
That’s odd, Russian Wikipedia comes up often even in English Yandex.
Do you think these results are affected by VPN usage?
