message: What animals and plants are there? Hay endemismos? Estaría bien incluir una seccion en el articulo. Anselmocisneros 03:42, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No. The species that inhabits Chiloe are the same that in mainland. There is a endemical bird, "huilco" (also known by Chileans as diucón de Chiloé) and in western coast of Isla Grande remain near 500 Darwin's Foxes (zorros chilotes in Spanish) but that animal also lives in Nahuelbuta (maybe 50 individuals).

message: Dont you think that Chiloé Island should be merged with Chiloé Province? Both article are abouth the same thing. For example Castro, Chile and many other chilean cities have only one article for both the city/town and the commune.Dentren | Talk 14:01, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nope, I think that the proper name for article is Chiloé Archipelago (or the correct word for "a group of islands"). Chiloé Province only should talk about administrative territory with that name: Chiloé+Llanquihue+Palena+Aysén+Magallanes -> the same-Magallanes -> -Aysén -> - + -Llanquihue ->-Palena, etc. Bye.

text: All three of them talk about different things: Chiloé Province = political, Chiloé Archipelago = geographical and Chiloé Island about that one island. This shouldn't be merged. Yamanbaiia 23:47, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Chiloé is the name of the archipelago and the name of main island. Their "complete" name is Isla Grande de Chiloé, but also is called Isla de Chiloé o simply Chiloé. In Spanish de ("of") is a normal form to conect isla con their name: "la isla de Cuba", "la isla de Quinchao". Moreover, people speaks about Chiloé y las islas adyacentes ("Chiloe and neighbouring islands"). However, this article should be renamed to Chiloé Archipelago because their theme is all the islands, not only Chiloé ;). Bye. Lin linao (talk) 06:36, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The article should bee move to Chiloé be about the whole archipelago and the province of Chiloé that consist of just all the territories of archipelago. Chilote Spanish, Chilota mythology and Chilota architecture should also be merged into the article until there they have enought information to be independent articles.

text: When an "error" is naming places or objects becomes a "common error", is not an error. Isla de Chiloé is a proper name for that island and Wikipedia it is not a source for Wikipedia. (I guess that "La comuna está formada por una estrecha franja de tierra en la Isla Grande, entre las comunas de Dalcahue y Chonchi, y por dos islas menores." was written by myself for estilistic purposes and is not a proof for nothing).

replies: text: Proper nouns may vary, they are not always an exact translation of the original proper noun. Example: the French Riviera's orginal name is Côte d'Azur, but in spanish it's called Costa Azul, when "Azur" does not mean "Azul". Another proof that "Chiloé Island" is the right name in English is a quick google search, "big island of Chiloé" = 820 results (many of them mirrors of same thing) while "Chiloé island" = +66000.   -Yamanbaiia (talk) 21:47, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
