Vital Articles

edit

The assessment tables can be a rather blunt tool, so here goes. See also WP:VITAL

Geography

edit
Island Area Rank Popn Rank Total Currently Priority
Lewis and Harris 1 1 2
Skye 2 4 6   n/a
Mainland, Shetland 3 2 5
Mull 4 8 12 1
Islay 5 7 12  
Mainland, Orkney 6 3 9
Arran 7 6 13  
Jura 8 31 39
South Uist 9 9 18 3
North Uist* 10 10 20
Bute 13 5 18 2
Great Cumbrae 45 10 55

Arguably, Shetland, Orkney and Outer Hebrides (all GAs) cover their largest islands, so Mull and Bute are the highest priorities along with the Uists.
