The problem with your videomappers example is that it should be obvious which falls under the category of videomapping and this type of mapping. This type of mapping, nations act like "people" or "characters" while (I'm going to say most) most video mappers are creating a historical map.

For non English Mappers, if their mapping series still contains the feature where the nations are like "people" or "characters", then that is considered our type of mapping but in a different language? Why should they be excluded? It doesn'tmatter if they don't interact with us. That's like saying I shouldn't be included because I don't speak to the top 3 English Mappers.

Some English mappers doesn't even have anything to do with Mapperdonia either because they don't connect themselves to the communities but rather just continue making mapping videos. Of course that statement is directed to those who aren't very "popular" but that doesn't mean I will exclude them from my statement. What does AFOE wiki name have to do anything with being a mapper? If they made an Alternative Future series, then they are a mapper.

So to break it down, let's find what  the similarities  and differences are with their mapping series.

Similarities

1. Same mapping style (nations act like characters/people)

2. Some do countryball mapping.

3. Countryball scenes (probably only a few  English mappers do it but I'm being biased to myself)

4. Classic green maps, classic textboxes, similar styles, could go on forever with that. (Even if their styles are different, it makes it unique as long as they follow number 1)

Differences

1. The series is in a different language.

Unless you can find more differences, I don't see why they should be excluded. Is it just because they are in different language? Are we just so use to seeing Mapping starting off as an English series and that's why we are upset? Or are we just jealous of their success? Since the page title has been edited, I don't see why we shouldn't call them "MAPPERS." Now before someone gets into an argument about the "English only rule" (yes yes, I'm sure you're ready to find the right time to argue), let me tell you that this isn't about non-English mappers trying to interact here on the Wikia but rather an issue with people not classifying them as a "mapper" despite them having the features of a mapper but just in a different language.
