There are some visits to Commonwealth countries that also appear under State visits but not all. What is the criteria here? Do the state visits include the commonwealth visits too? If so, then it is incomplete. --Natsubee
It depends whether she is head of state for that country, she can only go on a state visit to another country if she is not that country's head of state, for countries where she is head of state they are called Royal Visits. There are countries in the Commonwealth where she is not head of state, therefore there will be some countries correctly on both lists. BigTurnip ( talk) 17:44, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
seriously, why do we need these listed? The Queen refueling in Singapore every time she goes to Australia seems totally non-notable, unless she's actually doing some visiting while she waits. Also, I'm confused by the gaps on the list... how can she be in, say, Fiji from 4-5 March 1970 and then in Tonga on 7 March? What happened on 6 March? In 1972, we have her in Malaysia from 22-26 February and then again on the 28th... what happened? Are we meant to infer she went home for a day? -- MichiganCharms ( talk) 05:48, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
This article purports to be a list of "Commonwealth visits made by Queen Elizabeth II", yet it includes visits made by Queen Elizabeth II to countries that are her own realms, but excluding the United Kingdom, and to British Overseas Territories, which are part of the United Kingdom. The rationale for what's included, what's not, and why isn't clear. -- Ħ MIESIANIACAL 19:11, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
Well, if noone can explain why this list is inconsistent, I'll do my best to re-establish consistency. -- Ħ MIESIANIACAL 17:04, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

The Queen visited the Maldives in 1972.
https://www.nytimes.com/1972/03/14/archives/queen-elizabeth-in-maldives.html
I'm not sure if the Maldives was a member of the Commonwealth at that time, so that may be why it was ommitted. This visit is included on the Wikipedia article listing the Queen's visits to non-Commonwealth countries.

Did the Queen ever visit Eswatini (Swaziland) or Lesotho? Those are both members of the Commonwealth but they are not listed on the article.
