File talk:Great Britain.svg

Should the description not be clearer that this is the political Great Britain, as opposed to the geographical one? -- 82.20.56.243 19:05, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Dunno - is that from the POV of an Orcadian, Wight or Thanet Separatist? Cnbrb 23:55, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Just be nice to have some consistency with the article on en:Great Britain, or describe this as the political map (and add one for the geographical map)... -- Ratarsed 20:37, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Separate file for wider political definition (including the smaller islands)

A new file, Great Britain (political definition).svg, now exists. It includes in the red-shaded area those islands and archipelagos (Wight, Anglesey, Orkney, etc.) which by virtue of being separate islands are not part of Great Britain but can be be counted as such on account of their belonging to the pre-1801 United Kingdom. I have returned this file to show the standard geographical definition it showed for more than a decade, until changed without discussion. GPinkerton (留言) 13:24, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
