Argentina ommited on purpose
Interesting how the country with the largest number of Basques -Argentina, has been ommited in the diaspora section. There are more Basques in Argentina than are there in Europe. The number of "Basque centers" in Argentina (87) is by far the largest in the whole world. Chile, being cited here as the main example of the Basque diaspora, only has four such "centers". https://www.euskaletxeak.eus/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=140&Itemid=191 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2800:810:446:6D3:31A4:575E:BCD1:A214 (talk) 15:52, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
I added a map image of the Basque diaspora.

- Yes, and very obstinately so. But Basque ancestry or having a Basque surname is not the same as Basque ethnicity. Also, estimates for Basque ancestry are more then vague and need solid sources. –Austronesier (talk) 21:24, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
The Catalans article uses the map. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.71.0.220 (talk) 21:27, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
The image is good. It shows what regions Basque people are concentrated in. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.71.0.220 (talk) 21:30, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

- Anyone know if there is there a mechanism for having maps such as this one removed from Commons for being based on poor data? Akerbeltz (talk) 11:35, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
- Unfortunately not. OR is not sufficient reason to have a file deleted. Commons works more like a file repository for use in other Wikimedia Projects, each of which might have different policies about things like verifiabily. Only copyvios are systematically deleted. –Austronesier (talk) 12:20, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
- Urgh ok, that explains a lot. Thanks for explaining. Akerbeltz (talk) 21:37, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
- I don't believe the map is based on poor data; the article it's based off of cites several reliable sources. EpicPupper (talk) 23:03, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

- It isn't. Apart from the data we have in the infoboxes which is census data basically all the other 'sources' rely on variants of 'let's count Basque sounding surnames in the phone book of x and extrapolate that to the country y', which is just not reliable and we have discussed ad nauseum why that is not reliable.

- The uploader Allice Hunter stated “Information available on page Basques and Basque diaspora on the English Wikipedia with UploadWizard”. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.171.44.94 (talk) 09:14, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, it's poorly source information that some people insist on adding to the page every now and then, that doesn't make it reliable. Akerbeltz (talk) 22:07, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

Script error: No such module "protected edit request". Previews for this page display an Israeli flag as the article image, change this to the Basque flag Stripedorchid (talk) 17:39, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- File:Red question icon with gradient background.svg Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Don't see an Israeli flag anywhere in this article Cannolis (talk) 18:13, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- It is a result of vandalism. It will be fixed when the cache expires. Nardog (talk) 18:49, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
