I'm afraid the list you're based on is not exhaustive.

I do like how it includes the one person in the Falkland Islands who speaks Chinese, however.

Surprising lack of SE Asian countries considering a huge lot of Chinese communities there. Indonesia? Malaysia? Philippines?

i think you should use "sinitic language" or "chinese language" instead of chinese dialect. also i know that almost all of the southeast asian countries have significant chinese communities, especially malaysia, indonesia, thailand, the philippines, and myanmar. there is also a lot of chinese people in japan and korea. pretty sure new zealand should be here too. source you used just isnt that good. the "languages of -insert country name-" articles are better.
