- I have had several messages telling me to delete this article. I don' t know why, but please delete it. I don't know how to do this myself, but I removed the text from the page. Antipoeten (talk) 01:32, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Norwegian geography
Hi Antipoeten - good to see a few new articles on Norwegian geography appearing. Could I ask that you mark any as small as the ones you've been making with a stub template in future (like I've done here), just to let other editors interested Norwegian geography know there are articles which could do with expansion. Thanks - Grutness...wha? 03:21, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
- The same thing applies with other countries. Almost every country has its own geo-stub template - like {{PapuaNewGuinea-geo-stub}} and {{Myanmar-geo-stub}} for the likes of Kiwai Island and Kadetkyi Island. Grutness...wha? 13:01, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for the new articles, but please put the appropriate country geo-stubs and put a wikilink to the country that contains them. I've had to clean up a couple of articles by you, and it appears you are still not putting the stubs in articles you created after you have been asked above. Hu 20:20, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] TAAF (French Southern and Antarctic Lands)
I was not sure which geo-stub to use on (for example) islands belonging to TAAF (French Southern and Antarctic Lands). Antipoeten 00:35, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
When in doubt, just use {{geo-stub}} and somebody will notice and refine it later. Hu 10:00, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Indonesian islands
Please take care - removing the items from North Pagai was not appropriate - please look at other tems in the Indonesian project before removing material, thanks SatuSuro 23:59, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
I am sorry, I thought this information was wrongly posted. I still think that more technical information about surfing should be posted elsewhere. But this is just my opinion.Antipoeten 00:04, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Synonymous articles
Please be cautious not to create two articles about the same thing. For example, you created Obi Island, Java Sea, which it identifies as the same as Obira. The article should redirect to the other article. If you think the article name is inappropriate, the way to do that is with a requested move. It is not helpful to have two articles about the same topic, however. I have redirected the article and incorporated the new information into the old article.

[edit] Lingga Island
On 26 August 2007, you modified the entry for Lingga Island on the Lingga disambiguation page, by adding Indonesia within the brackets.
- (1) This was not necessary within the brackets because there is only one Lingga Island;
- (2) This was not necessary outside the brackets because Lingga Island was listed under Indonesia;
- (3) This edit deflected the link away from the existing article on Lingga Island, and made it redink.
- Please consider these types of issues before making edits on other pages. Thanks. --Bejnar 15:59, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WPSI
The following page may be of interest. One of the things we have been trying to do is to grade the sizes of various Scottish islands. Any comments, or contributions welcome.
