Doesn't have any sources. Seems made up. Correct map is on Wikipedia as File:UaFirstNationality2001-Fr.jpg

- I'd like to keep this graph, because it has a higher level of information. The Zygel diagram talks about the majority (the winner takes it all), while the Yerevanci diagram has more nuances: mostly vs predominantly. Moreover, the Yerevanci map talks about an ethno-linguistic map which comprises both ethnicity and preferred langugage.
- If you say that the references are missing, this is not an argument for deletion, it is an argument for improvement. The easiest way would be to contact User:Yerevanci if he could add information about the source of the file. Or other users recognize the map as well and can add the source. I personally don't assume that the information is nonsense, because - apart from the less nuanced depicting - both diagrams say the same. --Gunnar (talk) 10:07, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
- Here are two similar maps, from Stratfor and The Observer. As shown in this language map, there is a benefit in giving a nuanced scaling (mostly A, predominantly A, predominantly B, mostly B) instead of just majority A vs. majority B. The Kharkiv oblast has a majority of 53 % Ukrainian speakers and the Odessa oblast has a majority of 45 % Ukrainian. But you do not see a half-blue and half-brown pattern in the district structures of the oblasts, as the majority approach neglects the in-between scales. --Gunnar (talk) 15:57, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
Kept: no valid reason for deletion; if there is a problem with the map, fix it. —holly {chat} 23:24, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
