area figures - documentation?
What is the source of the area figures given in the article? 5.82 hectares for Gweal is way too low, when you can measure a length exceeding 500 meters and a width exceeding 300 meters from the satellite image, and a fairly compact elliptical shape. Given those parameters, an area of 12 hectares should come closer to the truth.--Ratzer (talk) 20:37, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
 * The area is from Rosemary Parslow's, Isles of Scilly p 7. Lousley's flora (1971) gives 6.15 ha and 15.2 ac. Jowaninpensans (talk) 21:15, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah thanx, would it be possible for you to send me a scan of the book's page with the area figures? ratzer.wikipedia@gmail.com. Thanks a bunch, and greetings.--Ratzer (talk) 21:35, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
 * If I can get my cheap and useless <£30 printer to scan I certainly will. Jowaninpensans (talk) 20:00, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
