Area and width
Some recent edits by an IP changed the area in the infobox from 916,400 km2 to 0.916400 km2, and the width from 50 km to 0.50 km. The area in the lead was not changed. The edits broke convert template due to use of a space.

Can you see a source to verify the values? Obviously if the land is 5 km by at most 200 m, the area has to be under 1 km2 so the IP's edit looks good. However, it would be best if a source were available. Johnuniq (talk) 09:55, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

I found two references, one Chinese and one English. 长沙橘子洲风景区 of Tencent said: "（橘子洲）狭处横约40米，宽处横约140米" (Its narrow width is 40 m and its broad width is 140 m). Brief Introduction to Orange Isle Scenic Spot said that "the original area of the tour region is about 17 acres, of which 6 acres is open to the public... With a total land area of about 91.64 acres".--Huangdan2060 (talk) 14:41, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I was hoping you would update the article :) but I edited it with the English ref you found. I should have changed the width but was reluctant since I can't read the ref. Perhaps you would change that. Johnuniq (talk) 00:59, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
