Remarks

• The population of Alderney , Sark and Herm has been subtracted from the population of the Bailiwick of Guernsey . These three islands are part of the Bailiwick of Guernsey, but are independent islands.
• There are some arguments in favor of including islands like Saint Petersburg , Vasilyevsky and Kamenny in the list, but it is very difficult to find statistics that are not written in Russian.
• It is difficult to find statistical material on the Île de la Cité and Île Saint-Louis , the two Seine islands in Paris. In addition, it is difficult to decide whether they should be included in this list at all.
• The population of small Icelandic islands like Heimaey has been subtracted from the population of the Republic of Iceland.
• Madeira is a Portuguese island, but it is not one of the European islands and was therefore not included in the list, nor was the Canary Islands , which belong to Spain but are not European islands either.
• In fact, Venice and Chioggia are two separate cities, but like Paris and Saint Petersburg, it is very difficult to get population figures for each city.
• The status of Södertörn and Södermalm as islands has already been discussed in other Wikipedia articles, the publication contains a different definition of 'island' which clarifies the issue for official Swedish statistics.
• Population figures (as of December 31, 2013) of Swedish islands (excluding Södermalm and Kungsholmen) were taken.
• The population of the island of Södermalm does not include the population of the small, nearby islands of Reimersholme and Långholmen , nor the population of Hammarby Sjöstad .
• Population figures (as of December 31, 2013) of the Swedish islands of Södermalm and Kungsholmen were calculated from the information provided by.
