Initial comments

This article is wide-ranging in scope, is well-illustrated and appears to be well-reference. It apears to stand a good chance of making GA, but I need to do the full reveiw before making that decision.Pyrotec (talk) 11:25, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

An impressive article. I'm awarding GA-status as it stands. However, as a "geography" article, I would have expected to see the usual table on weather, i.e. temperatures and rainfall, but the scope is sufficently broad for me to pass the article as it stands. You may wish to consider WP:FAC - it probably needs more work to get through that.Pyrotec (talk) 22:11, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Many thanks - and you are quite right about the weather. I'll get onto that. Ben MacDui 08:10, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
