This is ThomasNelson1027. I am writing this message on 1/18/2020 concerning the objectivity of the "Diego Garcia Island" page. This article has a Pro-Mauritius bias in it in my opinion due to the sovereignty, according to article, belonging to the "Mauritius Indian Ocean Territory", which is a factually incorrect term as all Mauritius' territories are located in the Indian Ocean. I think someone took out "British" as in British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT), which is an actual territorial name given by the UK government and replaced it with Mauritius. Moreover in terms of sovereignty, while Mauritius has a claim on the island and it appears de jure according to ICJ, Diego Garcia is de facto controlled by the UK, which this article appears to omit. Therefore, I believe this article should be flagged for bias. I went ahead and reversed the changes
