why is Russia blank? does no one in Russia edit wikipedia??

Looks like it's filtered by 5 to 99 edits. Maybe the 100 to more is so overwhelming russian that would not show the other countries.

It would need to be seen if a map of russian speakers would show the same results.

Russia doesn't show up when filtering by 100+ edits either. Does Wikipedia ban Russian IPs?

I was going "oh, does Russia block Wikipedia too?" but apparently no, it isn't

And thinking about it, whay I said didn't make sense neither, russian would still be the great majority of users doing 5 to 99 edits each. Don't know how easy is to find this info, but a better measure would be (number of edits in russian) / (number of russian speakers) by country.

Nope actually.

I have the same question. You’d think the majority of edits would come from Russia when the content is about Russia. Then again it may be because of conflicts between the west and Russia, considering Wikipedia is at least western leaning.
