Charter Rock and East Saarling Island
Unverifiable. Neither of these alleged islands appears in any other standard reference works, such as the CIA World Factbook. There are no mentions of East Saarling Island, an alleged insular area of the United States, on any US government websites. The "map" of East Saarling Island looks like something I could have created using Photoshop. Both articles were created at about the same time and the users appear to be the same (although one was created using an IP address and the other using a newly-created user id). --Russ Blau (talk) 14:07, 16 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete as vandalism. Especially silly is the entry on Charter Rock stating that there is a sch**l for 18 children when the article on Pitcairn says that "in September 2003, the first baby was born on the islands in 17 years." Pilatus 14:26, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

 * No idea about East Saarling, but Charter Rock is complete bollocks. 30 people? Pitcairn's population is 47, of whom all but 10 live in Adamstown. So the idea of 30 of them living on a rock elsewhere in Pitcairn that was only discovered in 1922 is complete drivel. As for "a ferry every two hours", since boat landings are only possible on Pitcairn twice a day, this is just the icing on the cake. Grutness...  wha?  01:18, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
