[edit] Extra map?
Image:Iles_kerguelen2.png and Image:Kerguelen_Map2.png seep to be somewhat duplicative; is it necessary to include both? AnonMoos 17:21, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Port Decaen and Port St Louis
Sorry, but these places are not former settlements but only sheltered places where ships may anchor. The source [1] is not so reliable and however gives information cautiously (“other settlements on the Kerguelen Archipelago may have been vanished: Port Decaen, Port St. Louis”). Right information from : DELEPINE Gracie (1973). - Toponymie des terres australes. Comm. territoriale de toponymie, h.s. revue TAAF, Paris
