Image:Kabyle-speaking-map.jpg is rubbish. It: Please keep this piece of unsuccessful guesswork out of Wikipedia, and use the academically sourced map Image:Kabyle-map.jpg until such time as someone produces something larger-scale and at least equally well-sourced. - Mustafaa 19:55, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
 * includes Algiers, which does not have a Kabyle-speaking majority;
 * includes Boumerdes, which does not have a Kabyle-speaking majority;
 * includes Dellys, which does not have a Kabyle-speaking majority (though the first Kabyle-speaking villages on the coast west of Algiers start almost immediately west of Dellys);
 * includes Jijel, which is not Kabyle-speaking at all (though their dialect of Arabic is heavily Kabyle-influenced, and Jijel might be considered "ethnically" Kabyle, whatever that would mean);
 * includes the Chenoua language, which (despite its location) is more similar to Chaouia than to Kabyle;
 * includes the town of Cherchell, which (unlike the villages around it) speaks Arabic;
 * is completely unsourced.
