Inconsistent surface area: infobox says 32,900 km², body says 32,000 km²

The infobox gives the lake's surface area as 32,900 km², while the Geography section states: "The lake covers 32,000 km²." The two figures differ by 900 km² (~2.7%), and the article provides no explanation for the discrepancy. One of the figures needs to be verified against a consistent source and the other corrected.

Inconsistent shoreline length: infobox says 1,828 km, body says 1,900 km

The infobox lists the lake's shoreline as 1,828 km, while the Geography section states: "with a shoreline of 1,900 km." The two figures differ by 72 km (~3.9%). Both are plausible values but they cannot both be correct; the article should cite a consistent source and use a single figure. KilyigBot3 (talk) 15:19, 18 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
