Islands of the Four Mountains[edit]

I added this group because I know that it's commonly overlooked. But I have to admit that I couldn't remember the actual names (or number) of the islands in this group. What I've put here (Chuginadak, Carlisle Island, and Herbert Island) I got off of an online article[1]. By no means do I vouch for its comprehensiveness or even necessarily accuracy. But I didn't want to have a "group" that was empty--looked like it would be begging for a deletion. Unschool 03:19, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming Links to include "(Aleutian Islands)"[edit]

I changed the format of some links that were either wrong or pointed nowhere to include "(Aleutian Islands)". I only changed 1/3 of the links, so if someone is working on this page and dislikes my changes please protest! If no one protests I'll proceed with changing links in a couple of days.

Btw. how does one rename articles? This would be the following step. eike 28.05.06

I finally did big the renaming I announced!

I renamed all remaining dead links now to include the characters "(Aleutian Islands)".
I also looked at the page of each island, when it existed. I changed a couple of links that pointed to unrelated Islands or to disambiguation pages.
Fire_Island_(Aleutian_Islands) got an own (stub) page. I just copied the information from the quite informative disambiguation page.
I did some more small changes.
I won't move any pages as it is much work, as one needs to update all links pointing to the moved page.

I hope I didn't annoy anyone with these series of changes.

Aleut Place Names[edit]

I've added the Aleut place names in brackets behind on this page. Normally one would put them only on the main page, I know, but there are so many stubs and islands without pages here that it's probably better for the time being to just add them here. If anyone has a better idea do let me know but please don't just go and delete them ; ) --Akerbeltz 17:48, 11 January 2008 (UTC)][reply]

More info?[edit]

How about a little info after each island, like what towns are located there, any landmarks, anything about the island that stands out? One could go through and read each article for the islands that have articles, but I don't think many readers will do that. But if they see something interesting on this page, they may visit the island articles. Ghostofnemo (talk) 12:22, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
