"There is no specific language used in these islands. For communication each island has there own dialect." (contribution from User:Noorul). I guess as far as Indians are concerned, folks out there just say mumble mumble mumble...
They are residents of these islands are Indians themselves. IndiBoy 05:45, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Why is the name not written in Malayalam as well as in English and Tamil (which it doesn't need to be) since the islands' official language is Malayalam. I don't know why the name is in Tamil.
The people of Lakshadweep speak jasari language which does not have a script of its own but is normally written using malayalam scripts. (the language is not similar to malayalam - a native of Kerala will find difficult to understand the island language).
Kiltan island was missing in the list inhabited islands. I have added it earlier. But someone removed that island from the list. What might be the reason to remove that island from the list. Noorul 14:20, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

A quick fail. Here are just few points:
Right now, it is failing all criteria in Wikipedia:Good_article_criteria other then being stable. TheSpecialUser TSU 05:52, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
I think the fact that the the low temp desalination plant was the first in the world deserves a mention in the desalination section.-- Ayanosh ( talk) 05:30, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
This is a quite good structural guide to many of the aspects of this subject that need covering. Chapter 2, "Economic issues", addresses several topics in turn, in sections headed: Agriculture, Animal husbandry, Soil and water conservation, Fisheries and ocean development, Coöperation and civil supplies, Public distribution system, Tourism, Industries, and Savings and investments. Chapter 3, "Infrastructure", is similarly useful. These tell one what things at minimum this article needs to cover in order to have rounded coverage of this subject.
Note that it's also a fairly good source in its own right for facts and figures. See page 41, for example.

Why?? 1.38.51.25 ( talk) 16:12, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
Just my two cents, but the only map of the archipelago is the India map at the head where the islands are circled. Good for the lede, but the group is barely visible - let alone individual islands. At least in the geography section, we need a nice, close-in map that clearly illustrates the archipelago. HalfdanRagnarsson ( talk) 15:43, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
This is a good map which could be added. @
