changed map

[edit]

I found the image:fp-map.gif confusing, not sure whether the adjacent archipelagos were part of the Society Islands or not. The new map image:French Polynesia map.jpg while unfortunately .jpg also provides details and labels for individual islands to complement their listing in the article. To this end I provided a direct link to the hi-res in the caption. A similarly detailed PNG or SVG map just of the Society Islands would be better, but I think/hope this change makes the best use of existing resources.Jauntymcd 22:28, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone render『Conseil du Scoutisme polynésien』and "Be Prepared", the Scout Motto, into Tahitian? Thanks! Chris 14:48, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have looked at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipedians_by_language . It would appear that there are no templates like {{User ty}}, {{User ty-3}} for Tahitian. :( Chris 06:53, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

islv is the acronym for『îles sous le vent』("Leeward islands" in english/or "raro mata'i" (raromatai) in the tahitian translation) and not Society islands. I've been several time on Huahine and i never saw or heard of such a flag. User:Nevers

I don't know this flag either, but it is described as "Flag of Society Islands". anyway, I removed it. Demonwhip 15:39, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to check if this flag is historical for the Leeward Islands which were annexed by France in 1888 (later than Winward islands). User:Nevers —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 11:16, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can we add a more zoomed-out map, showing its location in relation to the rest of the world? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.131.5.114 (talk) 02:54, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weren't the Windward Islands once called the Georgian Islands instead while the Leeward Islands were the Society Islands? --KAVEBEAR (talk) 02:18, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the ISLV flag from the article because it does not represent the whole of the Society Islands.CityOfSails2 (talk) 00:58, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
