References?

The only link listed under References is a dead link. This puts the whole article in a questionable light. Invertzoo (talk) 23:48, 12 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

I think it should be allowed to exist as a page in progress. Give it some time.Aetheling1125 18:26, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Much of the current material is as presented in one of the leading references, from the Society of Caribbean Linguistics' FAQ page. There's an underlying academic article, currently only online on Scribd, but with this reference:
  • Dick, Kenneth C. (1977). "Aboriginal and Early Spanish Names of Some Caribbean, Circum-Caribbean Islands and Cays". Journal of the Virgin Islands Archaeological Society. 4: 17–41.
A careful editor could check each entry and add a citation to one of these two sources.--Carwil (talk) 15:32, 11 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

Change Title

List of indigenous names of Eastern Caribbean islands and its Spanish translation need their names changed. The English article must remove "Eastern" since this article includes the indigenous name of all of the major islands of the Caribbean East and West. In the Spanish translation the word "Anexo:" needs to be removed. Rodaregal (talk) 12:08, 7 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
