It is totally biased, based on a clearly POV 19-th century pro-Greek map made by George Soteriadis Professor of History at the University of Athens, a 19-th century Greek historian.... I can make some thousands of images like this to show the Albanianess of Egypt... --Balkanian`s word (talk) 12:08, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this merits a delete, for several reasons. We already have far more biased and outright ridiculous ethnographic maps, and this one appears (to me at least) to be reasonably accurate in depicting the areas where minorities have traditionally (this is the important part) lived in Albania. The map is not a rip-off of Soteriadis, there are several listed sources. If it is inaccurate, then the best thing is to provide a source that explains how and where it is inaccurate, and then correct it. Deletion only comes across as a denial (i.e. "there are no minorities in Albania"). Constantine 13:02, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose delete, as a clear case of WP:IDONTLIKEIT on the part of a rabid Albanian nationalist. This is nothing more than yet another tiresome attempt to deny the existence of ethnic minorities in Albania. The map is based on numerous reliable sources, and is very accurate.

 Keep The description label and the discussion page are made up to write even an essay on how it is right or how it is wrong the map showed. Deletion, in this case and in my personal opinion, it's just censorship.--Giorgiomonteforti (talk) 22:50, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

""Delete"" As per Balkanian's word arguments.--I Pakapshem (talk) 17:36, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Delete propaganda map based on the map created by a Greek nationalist during WWI. Third source is totally irrelevant and doesn't even mention locations.--Kushtrim123 (talk) 20:00, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
 Keep: As per Cplakidas, deletion is an extreme approach. The traditional precense of ethnologiustic minorities (especially the Greek) is also cited in several books and journals: [[1]] p. 1617, and [[2]] (Monte Diplomatique). It's really sad to see blocked and spa-revert warriors from english wikipedia to be active here too.Alexikoua (talk) 10:17, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, Jameslwoodward, it has already been discussed in En:Wiki it is not propaganda.Megistias (talk) 04:54, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done. Tagged. Also entered a comment on the talk page. We should behave with maps and images as with articles. Please bring it to the talk page BW.Sulmues (talk) 13:04, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kept. Image is in use, in scope and educational. The deletion reason by the nominator really isn't a reason to delete the image. Bidgee (talk) 06:17, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A much more accurate map is already in wikipedia: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:AlbaniaTraditionalCommunitiesByLanguageAndReligion.png therefore "Albania_minorities.png" is unnecessary. AceDouble (talk) 23:59, 20 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
