Talk:List of islands of Greece

message: To name this like the others at List_of_islands, I'd like to move this page from Greek islands to List of islands of Greece. If someone could delete the current redirect at List of islands of Greece, this would help. -- User:Docu

What about the island of Gaia aka Sofia, which is part of the Ionian Echinades group of islands58.165.155.146 (talk) 03:21, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  List 

message: There was a request to merge this article with the list of Aegean islands. I removed the request because although the lists contain many of the same islands, their purposes are fundamentally different. This list is a country specific list that is meant only to show the islands that are part of Greece, while the other list contains all of the islands in the sea, whether they're Greek or Turkish. --NormanEinstein 15:21, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  One more 

message: The number you have is a bit inaccurate.They are much more actually, if you count every bit of land with at least a 10 meter radius.This is very important because every island includes six miles of national sealine (it should be 12 miles ,according to international sea laws ,but there is an everlasting Greek-Turkish dispute about this).The actual number is about 6000 islands (and islets) from which 227 are inhabited.http://www.eot.gr/pages.php?pageID=254&langID=2--NatK 05:51, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  1400 islands?????? 

message: I've seen various numbers quoted for 'inhabited Greek islands'.  A 1999 survey quoted by the Greek Ministry of Press & Mass Media in 'About Greece' a book distributed to the Press and others quotes 169 inhabited islands.  A Pub Quiz site says over 160 (safe bet!) The Greek Tourism site quotesthe same 227 as on Wikipedia.
I'd like to think te Ministry site is the correct one - but does anyone know for sure?  Do they mean permanently inhabited or habitable?

thread_title:  How many Inhabited ? 

message: I've cleaned up the lead and made it tighter.  The stuff about the Peloponnese and the boundaries of the Aegean doesn't really belong in this article, and certainly not in the lead.  I've also re-worded the part about the island groupings and made it more grammatically correct as well as more coherent.  --Tsourkpk (talk) 18:49, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It certainly does belong in the article that describes the Greek islands. You come from Greece, so I maybe you are not in the best position to appreciate how confusing the arrangment and terminology of the Greek Islands actually is to the outsider, which was my primary motiviation for writing it in the first place.

text: As for attacking things like the grammar, I don't think "The Greek islands are traditionally grouped in the following groups" is a good use of language at all. MickMacNee (talk) 19:24, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Points taken, thanks.  I've tweaked it some more.  However, I still think it's not necessary to mention the Peloponnese or the Aegean Sea here.  --Tsourkpk (talk) 16:11, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Skiathos is one of the islands in the North Aegean sea, specifically Sporades. It seems to be missing in the list. 
Its typically a popular island as well thus changes should be made.
