Love this map!:
Perhaps a little bizarrely (?) Keats is positioned on the Isle of Wight. He may have visited, but I would have thought his association with London was much greater.

Maybe they couldn't think of anyone for the Isle of Wight.

Probably more to do with lack of space in London - I mean how many thousands of great writers have lived or been most associated with London? It's a wonder Keats is even mentioned at all.
