I was carefully keeping Fernando Po separate because there is philatelic and colony info that doesn't make any sense to include with Bioko, but I guess that wasn't clear enough, sigh. Stan 21:46 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
Actually, it was the Queen Mary I who signed the treaty ceeding Fernando Po to Spain. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.241.142.136 ( talk) 01:50, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Where is this information comming from? Never heard of this separatist flag. Is it from the Bubis tribe? North, or south? Is this flag from a group close to the capital city? TTLightningRod 19:31, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
What is "pop culture" about Richard Francis Burton...?
I really don't see how including relevant mentions of major occurrences in notable works (not mere glancing mentions) is any different from mentioning on the Bruges article that the movie "In Bruges" is set there... AnonMoos ( talk) 17:33, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
The word is now correctly spelled Etymology in this section, but it does not deal with the term Bioko which is the topic. It only records the native name Otcho and the European preferred form Fernando Po. If not native or European, then what is the origin of the term Bioko?

There is a section with this label but the word does not exist. The nearest word is "Etymology" but it doesn't really apply to this section. Librarian16 ( talk) 21:06, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
The article says that 58% of the island's population (124,000) are Bubi people. This means there are approximately 71,920 of them. But the article on the Bubi people itself seys there are 64,000 of Bubi people in the whole Equatorial Guinea. What is more, the second article says: "Over time, the influence of the Bubi has greatly diminished, and some sources claim that they are now a minority upon the island, as well as in the nation of Equatorial Guinea itself." I suppose, it is a hard to estimate, but we should be consequent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.20.78.236 ( talk) 12:57, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
According to List of islands by area, this is probably the second largest island in Africa. While that is probably notable, the continents are not mentioned in the list and List of islands of Africa does not have areas or rankings. That could mean it needs a source which says the fact. 82.141.126.28 ( talk) 15:34, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

I presume it is mentioned in the article, but I swear I missed it a few times. This is a reflection of my reading, or perhaps it to be mentioned more prominently. -- PaulinSaudi ( talk) 19:00, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
