This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report 2 times. The weeks in which this happened:

July 26 to August 1, 2015 (16th)
August 2 to 8, 2015 (19th)

Preview Image

The page preview image for this article (unlike for pretty much every other country and territory) is the location of Réunion on the map. This is ugly.

Could an administrator change it to show the coat of arms? (I assume there would be objections to using the unofficial flag, though that is used in lists.) Rxtreme (talk) 12:41, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Isle Bourbon" vs. "Isle de Bourbon"

An 1816 ten-centime coin from Réunion, from when it was still called Isle Bourbon

The picture of "An 1816 ten-centime coin from Réunion" clearly says it's "Isle de Bourbon", NOT "Isle Bourbon".

Might someone who knows this history care to add a few words about this difference?

Thanks to all who have brought this article to its current condition. DavidMCEddy (talk) 21:23, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
