Please correct[edit]

This map is wrong in so many levels. Many of the countries marked as "legal to have child pornography" don't even allow to have pornography between legal adults (African countries or Russia) so it's crazy to say that those countries allow it. Please correct this map or at least don't use it in articles until that have been corrected. --DrkFrdric (talk) 14:57, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I feel that the person who has created this map was trying to shock somebody. There is no description of what is meant by either "possession", "pornography", or "child". In other words it's just a map with randomly coloured countries. Sinnamon (talk) 04:12, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. This map is directly contradicted by sources at w:Laws regarding child pornography. Many, many errors. At first I thought it was out of date, but comparing it to the article, it's just wrong. Grayfell (talk) 07:48, 2 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Today (18 december 2016) the source not work --Lorenzo Fiocco (talk) 18:25, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

All the information regarding child pornography on this map comes from a report by the ICMEC. I have remade it using the current edition, which was released in 2016. The definitions used are in the report. Specifically, “possession” is defined as “knowing possession regardless of the intent to distribute”, “child pornography” as “any representation, by whatever means, of a child engaged in real or simulated explicit sexual activities or any representation of the sexual parts of a child for primarily sexual purposes, as well as the use of a child to create such a representation”, and “child” as “anyone under the age of 18, regardless of the age of sexual consent”.

The countries where all pornography is illegal come from File:Pornography laws.svg. --Mr.Unknown (talk) 00:05, 19 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your work --Lorenzo Fiocco (talk) 19:24, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In Lithuania[edit]

Please change a Lithuania's colour on map to orange. It's illegal to have kids porno but legal to have adults'. It's written in Lithuanian law [1]. 158.129.160.69 09:21, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Russia[edit]

In Russia, possession of any kind of pornography (including child pornography) is not illegal. https://www.ecpat.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Child-Rights-Committee-report-on-the-Optional-Protocol-on-the-Sexual-Exploitation-of-Children-Russia.pdf --Reprarina (talk) 00:37, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article 242.1. Making and Circulating Materials or Articles with Pornographic Images of Minors 1. Making, keeping or moving across the State Border of the Russian Federation for the purpose of dissemination, public showing or advertising, or dissemination, public showing or advertising, of materials or articles with pornographic images of known minors, as well as drawing known minors as performers to entertainment events of pornographic nature by a person who has reached the age of 18 years - shall be punishable by deprivation of liberty for a term of up to six years.

It's not illegal to keep child pornography without these purposes.--Reprarina (talk) 00:42, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
