Talk:Asia Most Active Graticules

Why "Moscow, Russia 55 37" is in Asia stats, not in Europe? Is there some logic behind this or just a mistake? Geographical boundary between Europe and Asia divides Russia, with Moscow being in European part, while politically/culturally Russia is usually either considered East Europe or on it's own. Here on wiki Russia is in category "Europe", not in "Asia". Though it'd be better to add it to both. vb (talk)

I thought it was because of the official "geohashing" border as per Global Activity graph, but it's actually 40 degrees east - three graticules east of Moscow (so Moscow is technically still counted in Europe). On further research, it seems that whoever created the All graticules/Eurasia page put 35 degrees east as the border between Europe and Asia in Russia (with a peculiar exception of a tiny island far out in the north). --January First-of-May (talk) 15:11, 4 April 2013 (EDT)

That doesn't seem to be anything "official" - just a feature of the particular script implementation. vb (talk) 05:46, 8 April 2013 (EDT)
