 – Just a note.

I would like to stress that I did not lift the original entry from any encyclopaedia. Rather, it was one of a variety of Orkney islands for which I created articles using information from a variety of different sources. Warofdreams 10:54, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC) Small text

Stamps

What is the story behind the apparent issue of postage stamps for this uninhabited island? Who is making them, and why? Example 1, example 2. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō Contribs. 13:40, 25 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

It is my understanding that the concept (I won't comment on the specific examples) is one of commercial exploitation and I have removed references to them from numerous island articles. There are one or two that seem to have had a genuine use, but it is particularly absurd when the websites refer to their usage in relation to uninhabited islands.
