: Not sure if you're suggesting an edit. Are you suggesting the "Delos" article should actually be about both islands? Also, please log in and sign your posts, thanks. --Rodii 20:50, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Not colorblind friendly, consider the addition of a map with text or symbols rather than just a color indicator of location.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.149.80.46 (talk) 09:09, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. In fact, the dot used to indicate Delos' location is so tiny that those of us who aren't colorblind have a hard time seeing it.It would greatly improve the article -- & better justify its "B" grading -- were a geographical section added: layout of the island (both the Google Map & Open Map images suggest that a conservation area of some kind covers the northern half of the island), & neighboring islands. It would also be a helpful improvement if its later history were provided: when did the island become uninhabited, & how did the archeological sites suffer for it? (I doubt that fishermen systematically demolished its structures & sculptures for the stone -- which were abundantly & more easily obtainable from the rest of Greece.) -- llywrch (talk) 20:25, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

message: I want to get a close-up view of the map.  So I click on it to see precisely where Delos is.  When I get the magnified view of the map, the red dot supposedly indicating Delos disappears.  And that is not good.CountMacula (talk) 15:17, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
