"Usable region"?
[edit]Shouldn't this be a city article and downgraded to "outline" for lack of listings? Hobbitschuster (talk) 15:51, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
- It can't be a region, because it's a bottom level article. As the island's only population is transient scientists, I think the park article template should be used. Not sure if the article is usable though. ϒpsilon (talk) 16:36, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
VHF
[edit]The article says, in Get around, that "Walkers need to [...] carry a handheld VHF radio". Nothing is told about how you get it, so I suppose you should bring one. But then you should know what kind of VHF radio to bring. If you are supposed to have a marin VHF, then we should say so. Are you supposed to use channel 16 in case of any problems? Is there staff monitoring the channel or whom are you supposed to call? Or do you carry the phone to allow staff to contact you? –LPfi (talk) 14:52, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
