Too many maps?
[edit]This article has 3 infoboxes, all with maps. Is it possible to remove one or more of the maps from the infoboxes? They're taking up an awful lot of real estate down the rhs. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 04:25, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- +1 remove two. The lighthouse box in this article seems questionable anyway. Alexpl (talk) 05:41, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks. I've managed to stop them from displaying in the two subsidiary ones. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:49, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Overall Content
[edit]This articles needs a thorough edit by someone who knows the subject. There is much repetition and some conflicts. SRF101 (talk) 08:30, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
- Its an iterative process, and I've been chipping away at it in my limited spare time in the past couple of days along with a couple of other editors. If you look at the version from 3 days ago, you will see quite a lot of improvements. Do you have anything specific to add that would improve the article, or duplication that you would like to highlight? Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:54, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Kharg District and city articles
[edit]Both of these appear to be stubs with a lot of overlapping info, and I assume that the climate would be pretty much the same in the city as on the rest of the island. Wondering whether we need them all, and/or climate should be added to this article at least. Also, all three quote the population count as 8,193 in 2016. I assume this means that everyone's homes are in the city? Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:55, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
The mention of the Strait of Hormuz's distance provides less information than stating first that Kharg lies in the upper Gulf. Azd0815 (talk) 11:22, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
The naitive language is wrong
[edit]the island is iranian, most of the people living there are iranian, then why is it arabic?? Persianguy29 (talk) 20:15, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
