Where is 'Little Holm'? Ben MacDui (Talk) 16:19, 9 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I was thinking it was Lamb Holm. --MacRusgail 10:20, 10 September 2007 (UTC) p.s. Italian Chapel can be mentioned briefly, but is not on island.Reply

I've changed the link to Lamb Holm. -- Mogsy7 (talk) 19:41, 16 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

James Stewart

Please check the source. James Stewart of Burray was arrested and taken to London as a Jacobite, nothing to do with any supposed murder. [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Macquants (talkcontribs) 02:53, 19 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

The lead needs improvement - there should be one paragraph per main heading, and little or nothing in it that is not enlarged on lower down.

The bird species would ideally be linked and capitalised - (see e.g. Fauna of Scotland) - and need a small section of their own not just a lead mention.

Geology could do with a little expansion and the section header and prose are in different orders.

Worth mentioning the Italian Chapel.

The photos could be improved on. There is nothing on the modern economy.

It's a pretty good article for such a small island. Ben MacDui (Talk) 16:08, 9 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
