[edit] Infobox
I have corrected the most obvious flaws in the infobox. However, I think the country infobox format is quite inappropriate and cumbersome for French overseas territories. It would be better to create a dedicated Template:French_overseas_territories_infobox which would be used for New Caledonia, French Polynesia, Wallis and Futuna, Mayotte, and Saint Pierre et Miquelon.

- How is the population estimate a flaw? The box does not look right without the population est? Unless you have figures from a different source leave the population estimate in the box? MJCdetroit 15:06, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Foreign Legion garrison
France keeps a detachment of LEF on Mayotte: http://www.defense.gouv.fr/sites/terre/decouverte/presentation_de_l_armee_de_terre/armes_et_composantes/legion_etrangere/detachement_de_legion_etrangere_de_mayotte
Wiki has this: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9tachement_de_L%C3%A9gion_%C3%A9trang%C3%A8re_de_Mayotte
[edit] Mayotte incorporated into +262 country code with Reunion
As of 30 March 2007, existing Mayotte telephone numbers from other nations will be dialled as +262 269 xxxxxx, instead of +269 xxxxxx.

[edit] Paragraph on Dzaoudzi
This needs rewriting, Dzaoudzi is a rocky islet between Petite Terre and Grande Terre. This rocky islet is connected to Petite Terre by a causeway, but there is no causeway between Dzaoudzi and Grande Terre.
