Map showing usage of nuclear energy

[edit]

Hello, regarding your map file 'Nuclear power percentage.svg' [File:Nuclear_power_percentage.svg] or on e.g. the English Wikipedia: [File:Nuclear_power_percentage.svg]

At first, thank you for making the map! That is a nice rendering of data that is only available in a tabulated form elsewhere.

However, French Guiana in South America does not get any power from nuclear fuel. This page says so: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_French_Guiana and I don't find any contradicting information on the internet. It belongs administratively to France somhow, so the source cited as 'Updated using data from the IAEA website.' may relate it to France, but for all I know it is not France and thay have no nuclear power. Could you please a) correct the map and b) state the exact source ? IAEAs website is vast and wide and I cannot find the source data there. This issue is bugging me because the map's title/legend/description/name suggests that 'French Guineas electricty is partly derived from nuclear sources which it is not. They don't even seem to have a test reactor or any nuclear facilities at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.50.174.77 (talk) 12:01, 29 September 2016
