Italy and France[edit]
The language situation in Italy on the map is lacking, since it covers Friulian and Ladin while making no mention of the other recognized minority languages (which are not so many) in the country, especially Sardinian with at least a million people with both and active and passive knowledge of the language. Regarding France, the choice of not including Corsican is also somewhat odd. Yes, in the case of both Sardinian and Corsican we're speaking of languages the majority of natives don't use that much anymore, but this doesn't seem to have been the criteria from which the people who made the map have drawn inspiration, since they included Breton and Scottish Gaelic.
I tried to made some corrections to the map, but it's in .svg and unless I use some particular software, I can't do it. So, I'm leaving this note to whomever is going to update the picture.--Dk1919 Franking (talk) 10:54, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
Sicilian really needs to be added too, as it's quite large.Paolorausch (talk) 10:43, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
- Missing languages. Occitan is the regional language of France with the most speakers. Occitan is a official language in all Catalonia. Arpitan/francoprovençal speaking region is wider than others (breton, basque,...). Corsican is officialy recognized by the Territorial Collectivity of Corsica. In Italy, 12 minority languages are recognized: l'albanais, le catalan, l'allemand, le grec, le slovène, le croate, le français, le franco-provençal, le frioulan, le ladin, l'occitan et le sarde.

Changing the extension of Galician[edit]
Don't know what source was used for the Galician language, but there should not be Spanish-speaking «holes». I propose changing the current version for the attached one:
