Groupings and population information are available at List of islands of Scotland the latter being based on the 2001 census. Area measurements for the 162 islands of 100 acres or more in size are available in Haswell-Smith, Hamish. (2004) The Scottish Islands. Edinburgh. Canongate. I'd be happy to pass the relevant numbers on if needed, although I doubt I am going to get around to listing all 162. I am not aware of any other source for area information for the smaller islands. There is a case for having groupings of the Hebrides other than those that the list provides, which seem inconsistent to me. Following Haswell Smith I suggest:

Lewis and Harris, Uists and Benbecula, Barra, Islay, Mull, Small Isles, Skye, and Inner Hebrides (north), and Atlantic Outliers. The Slate Islands are also contenders if needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ben MacDui (talkcontribs) 09:47, 7 December 2006‎

Hi there, I'm wanting to add the ability to add Welsh names in to the template. Could someone help me with that please?

Many thanks,
