It's actually one island, as noted in the article itself and in The Skerries, Northern Ireland. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:31, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I've created Winkle Island (disambiguation). Clarityfiend (talk) 08:02, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Wouldn't a rename take care of the plural? --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:58, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Give it a disambiguator. Call it 'Winkle Island, the Skerries' or something. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:32, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. No reason for deletion suggested. Maybe it should be renamed to "Winkle Island, northern Ireland" or something, but that is not a reason for deletion either. The fact that there is a different notable place in the world also known as "Winkle Island" is also irrelevant. Use wp:RM process to suggest a rename. --Doncram (talk) 00:53, 21 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
