That video is what you could’ve linked in the first place. It clearly explains the whole situation, and the colors and numbers make sense in the context (they’re highlighted examples and not really exceptional cases). Don’t act like you’re doing any “work for free” when you yourself admit you’re lazily cropping other people’s work.

I don’t see that picture in the linked article. A similar picture, but it doesn’t have the numbers and shades of green.

I know how to use search engines, by the way. But I also think that it’s the responsibility of the person sharing graphs/maps to provide context for those graphs to enable readers to understand the data without having to go and do their own research. There’s no guarantee anyone finds the original source or that the source even provides the necessary context, if the sharer just grabbed a picture from Google Images without regard for the source.

So no, I won’t even attempt to find context and happily push that burden back on the person who lazily shared a graph without explanation.

This map needs an explanation. Is grey just no data? Why the two shades of green? The numbers, what do they mean?
