To say the British Indian Ocean Territory is part of the Indian subcontinent seems like a bit of a stretch. Please provide ]s for it. ] (]) 20:09, 21 September 2024 (UTC) |

I want to complain about the main map used in the Infobox. Why use the national colour of India? The Indian subcontinent is not India! All maps in Misplaced Pages use the dark green colour, why is this one using the national colour of India? It is an insult to the other six South Asian countries. I am very angry, please change it immediately. (•̀へ •́ ╮ ) ] (]) 06:39, 28 March 2023 (UTC) |

A discussion is taking place at ] to decide how Afghanistan should be shaded or included in a map of South Asia to indicate the extent to/frequency with which it is considered a part of the region. ] (]) 20:50, 2 January 2025 (UTC) |

"Geopolitically, it includes the republics of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka." |
|
|
This reads wrong to me as Bhutan is a kingdom, not a republic. ] (]) 05:57, 18 April 2023 (UTC) |

The map used doesn't show complete India. The Gilgit Baltistan and Aksai Chin are considered part of India as per accepted Indian Map. ] (]) 16:02, 4 May 2023 (UTC) |

I don’t know how to add citations in wiki articles, so I’ll post a source here: |

First definition provides affirmation. |

I’m not sure why this was ever in dispute anyway, to the person that reverted my edit. Why do you think it’s called the INDIAN subcontinent? ] (]) 08:20, 28 June 2023 (UTC) |

:::That link claims the first use of the term was in 1952, which is obviously incorrect. If you want to convince people to make this change to the article you're going to need a better source than a dictionary. In any case, we list alternative names in the 'Name' subection, where that can be presented with proper context and without confusing readers. ] (]) 17:56, 1 July 2023 (UTC) |
