[edit] Wrong fact

"It is owned by Virgin entrepreneur, Sir Richard Branson." I would say this is wrong. Necker Island (British Virgin Islands) is instead owned by him. --Abdull 13:42, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Picture not actually of Necker

I deleted the picture because it was not of necker island. Yes, I know, it links to a credible source stating that it is Necker, but I compared it to other pictures, and determined that it was actually of Nihoa. A little research led me to other some pictures claiming to be Necker but clearly Nihoa on the same site. One actually was of Necker, but it claimed to be of Lisianski. Anyway, I hope this clears up possible confusion. In the future, don't trust this site anymore. SeanMD80 02:35, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

UPTADE: I added a correct photo of Necker, conveniently already located on the database. It was claiming to be of Lisianski Island, so I deleted it. SeanMD80 03:50, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
