Kapuiviit coordinates[edit]

@Bazonka: Why are the coordinates 72°31′N 80°0′W / 72.517°N 80.000°W / 72.517; -80.000 (Canada) {{Coord|72|31|N|80|0|W|type:country|name=Canada}} for Kapuiviit identical to the coordinates for Ragged Island and Baffin Island? What is your source for these coordinates? wbm1058 (talk) 12:11, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you're right. There is something wrong, but then the coords you changed them to weren't quite right either. (It should be the point at which the meridian enters the island, not the middle of it.) I'll have another look at this later today. Bazonka (talk) 12:29, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Wbm1058: Sorry about that, I've fixed it now. That error has been there for 12 years and no-one's noticed! Bazonka (talk) 19:11, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
