Talk:Sifnos

Distance from Athens/Piraeus

Sifnos is claimed to be 130km or 80 nautical miles south of Piraeus. Which is it? 130km is 80 statute miles (`land miles') but only 70 nautical miles; 80 nautical miles is 148km.

Kastro as the 2nd major population centre on Sifnos?

In the introduction paragraph the village of Kastro is said to be the second largest population centre on Sifnos. I have visited Sifnos many times and my recollection is that Kastro is no longer a large population centre. Gerald Adams 21:36, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Please don't post spam links

I've removed the links http://www.sifnos.gr/index.php/en/promotion.html and http://http://sifnos.e-sifnos.com/, which are both links to pages aggregating commercial services on Sifnos like hotels, travel agents, etc., and as such are very clearly spam. (The first is in the same domain as the official Sifnos government page, but that page itself is as I've described it. The fact that it's in the same domain as the government page doesn't mean that it isn't commercial and isn't spam.) I've added the link to what appears to be the actual official web site of the Sifnos local government; though it's in Greek, it may be of use to some readers of this page. Please don't revert this edit: commercial links are absolutely inappropriate to WP. Littlewindow (talk) 20:11, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Sifnos

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Sifnos's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "census11":

• From Syros: Detailed census results 2011 (in Greek)
• From Sarakino: "Detailed census results 2011" (xls 2,7 MB) (in Greek). National Statistical Service of Greece.
• From Kyra Panagia: "Detailed census results 2011" (in Greek). National Statistical Service of Greece. Archived from the original (xls 2,7 MB) on 2013-12-25.
• From Thymaina: "Απογραφή Πληθυσμού - Κατοικιών 2011. ΜΟΝΙΜΟΣ Πληθυσμός" (in Greek). Hellenic Statistical Authority.
• From Athens: Απογραφή Πληθυσμού – Κατοικιών 2011. ΜΟΝΙΜΟΣ Πληθυσμός (in Greek). Hellenic Statistical Authority.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 00:59, 25 October 2020 (UTC)
