message: ...instead of as an area where Islands exist.  It is an island within Canada, yet it's not listed on this page as its own entity.
Feedback, please.

replies: text: Er yeah, I guess it got "lost in the shuffle"....maybe the Lower Mainland islands can get put last, then put Vancouver Island first, as a stand-alone section-item; thing is the other parts of the South Coast are oriented around it....Queen Charlotte Strait islands are also "North Coast of Vancouver island", other than those adjacent to the mainland like the Broughtons.....like the Queen Charlottes re the North Coast, it's sort of its own item within the South Coast; rearrange as you see fit; what drew my attention was your jumbling of the concept of "Vancouver Island and West Coast" - remember that in other parts of Canada "West Coast" means the whole of British Columbia (even the Interior....).Skookum1 (talk) 04:39, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: That looks about as good as I could get it.  I think your criticisms are well placed, maybe I should have said "Vancouver Island and West Coast of Vancouver Island", but that's a little wordy.  Thanks taking care of that. Ewaladel (talk) 06:00, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to note there are further islands in the Victoria-Sooke area which I don't think belong in either the Gulf Islands or the West Coast of Vancouver Island; most are minor but notable are the Race Rocks, which are an ecological preserve and also the most southerly land in British Columbia.  There was also a Deadman's Island in the Inner Harbour, north around Bay Street or beyond, it may even have an article but for now I can't recall its name; the islands SE of Ross Bay may be listed as Gulf Islands, I wouldn't style them so; so "Offshore from Victoria" might be worth considering; there are no islands SFAIK between Sooke and Port San Juan (Port Renfrew) and the "WEst Coast" series would start from there.....Cape Scott Islands and Lanz and Cox Islands I've included in the West Coast of Vancouver Island; there may be articles on them under other names, e.g. part of the Cape Scott Provincial Park article, I'm not sure....there's also I think Nahwitti Island off the north coast of Vancouver Island, east of Cape Scott, but it could go with the Queen Charlotte Strait groupings....Skookum1 (talk) 18:16, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
