The distance between Moscow and Vladivostok is 10K km. May we have 83 chapters please?
You should have regional chapters. Actually, I am not sure would it be possible to have (in a developed stage) a functional chapter at the level of a Russian republic in the eastern parts of Russia.
However, I suppose that significant majority of Russian Wikimedians are grouped now around/between Moscow and St. Peterburg. So, there is a lot of sense to make first WM Russia and then to federalize it.
