Seemingly incorrect exports in graphic

The graphic in the econemy section shows the main exports of the Seychelles as being salmon and anologue computers. This sounds wildly unlikely and does not correspond with the text. I'm wondering whether the graphic has either been wrongly generated or relates to a different country? 86.13.121.19 (talk) 12:58, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

It appears to be based on this. Rivertorch's Evil Twin (talk) 20:17, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
That graphic is wrongly labelled, as already pointed out in Talk:Seychelles/Archive 1#Salmon?. Since it now also is outdated, I proposed it for deletion. — Sebastian 04:10, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

Dubious

This article needs some attention and fact-checking. I'm marking some particularly dubious spots. --L235 (talk) As a courtesy, please ping me when replying. 10:47, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Island count: 115 or 155?

Different places in the article gives figures of 115 and 155 for the number of islands. Which is it? Might there be two different schemes for classifying and/or naming? The article should address this issue. Feline Hymnic (talk) 17:11, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

The figure of 115 seems to have disappeared now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23D0:E61:CF01:A5FF:529C:631B:EE80 (talk) 10:05, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

Styles

Why is the term "Creole heritage" italicized? Xofg (talk) 17:28, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

I have eliminated the italics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23D0:E61:CF01:BC48:D967:E2E0:E34D (talk) 17:09, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
