This map is one of the rare cases, where exact data exists: the census data is from 2011. The colors on the map reflect accurately the percentages as per census. The census data is linked too: Servizio Statistica della Provincia Autonoma di Trento. Moreover the map (as per its name) shows the languages, not single dialects. Therefore Nones and Fassan are colored the same (blue), as in both valleys people declared "ladin" as their mother-language. On the other hand "Mocheno" and "Cimbrian" are both german dialects, and thus are filled with the same color (green).--Sajoch (talk) 01:50, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This map is original research by Sajoch and manipulation of the Census. http://www.statistica.provincia.tn.it/binary/pat_statistica/demografia/15CensGenPopolazione.1340956277.pdf 15° Censimento della popolazione e delle abitazioni Rilevazione sulla consistenza e la dislocazione territoriale degli appartenenti alle popolazioni di lingua ladina, mòchena e cimbra = 15th census of population and housing Enquiry about the number and the location of those who belong to the population of Ladin, Mocheno and Cimbrian language. Not a word about German language.--Patavium (talk) 22:02, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Until there's no proof of the contrary, Mocheno and Cimbrian are germanic languages (see: en:Mòcheno language and en:Cimbrian language).--Sajoch (talk) 22:42, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
LOL! http://www.statistica.provincia.tn.it/binary/pat_statistica/demografia/15CensGenPopolazione.1340956277.pdf 15° Censimento della popolazione e delle abitazioni Rilevazione sulla consistenza e la dislocazione territoriale degli appartenenti alle popolazioni di lingua ladina, mòchena e cimbra = 15th census of population and housing Enquiry about the number and the location of those who belong to the population of Ladin, Mocheno and Cimbrian language.

Altipiani Cimbri

[edit]

Please let the yellow area for the Cimbrians. Read the census and consider that this area makes up the district nr. 12 Magnifica Comunità degli Altipiani Cimbri [1].--Patavium (talk) 20:29, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Who dictates it has to be yellow?!? If I used "lime green" for Cimbrian and "bottle green" for Mocheno, that should suffice. As both dialects are german, it's reasonable and justified to give them similar colors. It's common practise in cartography to give related languages or dialects similar colors.--Sajoch (talk) 12:02, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The census does. And Germanic is not German.--Patavium (talk) 20:47, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
