[edit] Inaccurate

This is inaccurate. The Times of India has mentioned that there are three volcanoes in this chain. User:Nichalp/sg 07:00, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

True, it lies in a chain of volcanos. This is however anactive volcano. That is the difference. Idleguy 07:19, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
But it mentioned all three were active. User:Nichalp/sg 08:14, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
Ok confirmed, you're right. [1]. Would you be willing to create these additional pages? User:Nichalp/sg 08:22, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
Sure, I'll start the one for Baratang if it doesn't already exist with alternate spellings and after i get some more info. The Narcondum article already exists. Tx. Idleguy 08:37, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Coordinates of Barren Island

The webpage on Barren Island (http://www.geos.iitb.ac.in/dchandra/biexp/) says the correct coordinates of Barren Island are 12.29 N, 93.87 E, but we have a different one here. Also, the imagery from Terraserver (http://www.terraserver.com/imagery/image_gx.asp?cpx=93.85&cpy=12.266667&res=30&provider_id=340&t=&OL=) likely shows that the current Wikipedia coordinates may be wrong. This needs to be verified and corrected.Mahadevan Subramanian 19:29, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
