message: The photo with text  'A view of Mutsamudu including mosque' does not show Mutsamudu, it's Domoni. Very typical the square and the round minaret and the peninsula. From each point at Mutsamudu you see the large container harbour. What to do now? Leave it as it is because nobody really knows the Comoros? Type Domoni instead of Mutsamudu? Or upload a real photo of Mutsamudu? --212.101.52.67 (talk) 22:13, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for drawing our attention to this. Yes, the uploader has only identified it as being Anjouan. I've changed the caption to read as being a view of a coastal town in Anjouan including mosque. The only person in a position to verify where it is located is the photographer themselves, and that person is no longer active on Wiki Commons. Hopefully, this works as a satisfactory compromise. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 05:08, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

message: Hey there is a bit in there that says that Mayotte voted for indipendence in 1974, could that be fact checked please. 莊子の蝶 (talk) 19:16, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it says that Mayotte voted against independence. The Mayotte referendum was organised and conducted by France and deemed to be a flagrant breach of Comorian sovereignty: thus the claim was vetoed by the United Nations Security Council. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:07, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

message: Almost all countries in the world have a subdivision page on their english wiki, the Comoros don't. I see that under the french wiki they do (https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdivisions_des_Comores), is there a reason why we don't have the same or is it just something that's missing?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.59.251.146 (talk) 21:49, 2 June 2017 (UTC)

message: I have noticed some conflicting information in the history section
The first human inhabitants of the Comoro Islands are thought to have been Polynesian and Melanesian settlers, Malays and Indonesians, travelling by boat. These people arrived no later than the sixth century AD, the date of the earliest known archaeological site, found on Nzwani, although settlement beginning as early as the first century has been postulated.[12]
The islands of the Comoros were populated by a succession of peoples from the coast of Africa, the Arabian Peninsula and the Persian Gulf, the Malay Archipelago, and Madagascar. Bantu-speaking settlers reached the islands as a part of the greater Bantu expansion that took place in Africa throughout the first millennium.
The first part claims that the first settlers were Polynesians and Melanesians. I assume they meant Austronesians as there is no way Pacific Islanders could settle the Comoros.
The second part (along with History of the Comoros) claims that the first settlers were African.

message: Is it common for a history section to have so much "According to legend.." "According to mythology.."? It is certainly not the case for, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia#History, which is based in historical evidence, not Aboriginal Australian religious beliefs.

message: Insufficient scope and content for standalone article, easily incorporated into the main Comoros article. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:41, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: There is scope for a standalone article at that title, but certainly the current one does not justify it. CMD (talk) 12:45, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

text: Support I was going to say the same as Chipmunkdavis, and the info that the islands were politically separated from Madagascar in 1946 should be imported because it's bizarre that it isn't already here. But I also took at Comoro Islands#History and History of the Comoros and found the information there. For a freestanding article on the Territory of the Comoros to exist, it would have to expand greatly on what's already in History of the Comoros, or even be split out from it as a main article.
