I think the map on this page could do with some clarification. I don't have the graphics capabilities to do a good job of it. The main river shown in dark blue on the map isn't actually the Pyana; it's labelled Sura. The Pyana is the hairpin shaped loop just below the large red label of Нижегородская Област top left, but someone who didn't read Cyrillic, or didn't look closely at the map, probably wouldn't realise this.

For this article, the map ought to have an arrow or a circle or something highlighting the correct river. 93.97.184.230 (talk) 08:54, 23 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
