User:AlwaysUnite added to the source field bibl. refs to Barsh 2003 and to Jurmain et al. 2009. Do these two papers refer to and show this map, that is, the 1940 Biasutti map? -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 23:43, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Hey User:Tuvalkin! Yep they do, albeit with stark warnings that the quality of the data is lacking, much like the summary now included from the png version. Hope you don't mind I cleaned up a bit[1]. This file was by far the best of a list of very similar files. And there's no point in keeping bad versions of the same around :) AlwaysUnite (talk) 23:51, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Some users are constantly violating the source used. Firstly, they state in the title that the map is according to Biasutti. Secondly, Why are you putting Romania and Hungary in a category that Biasutti doesn't support? This is the image from Biasutti. Please, stick to its colors and extent.

This derivative work is utterly false. As per the Danube river depicted in the Biasutti map, the border of I and II skin tone is located around the Hungarian-Slovakian border, NOT at the Bosnian-Croatian border. Please stop manipulating the data. I uploaded a correct derivative work , hope that helps.Didte (talk) 11:09, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

I agree. The map recreation is POV pushing and must be removed. Bozdugan (talk) 05:19, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Why the use of mercator projection?

It doesn't make any sense to me, you don't need to navigate on this map. (Which is basically the only use case why one would choose this heavily out-of-proportion map projection) I would suggest to use something with equal-area, like the en:Equal Earth projection. --TheRandomIP (talk) 22:57, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
