Smooth Island (Nunavut)[edit]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more redirects. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the redirect's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was procedural close (non-admin closure). The page is no longer a redirect. If editors wish to suggest deletion they should propose deletion or nominate the expanded article at Articles for deletion. Ivanvector (talk) 14:26, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, no mention of Nunavut at target article. 117Avenue (talk) 03:43, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Nunavut does have a Smooth Island (apparently approx, 9 km from Rankin Inlet). If it's notable a new article can be created for it, but clearly the redirect from the Nunavut island article to the article for Smooth Island in Georgian Bay, Ontario is not correct.

  • Delete There are two Smooth Islands, one in Nunavut and one in Ontario. A redirect from Smooth Island (Nunavut) to Smooth Island (Ontario) is therefore ridiculous and should be deleted. Whether the Nunavut island should have its own article content is another matter. However, it is small and unpopulated, and probably don't meet WP:GEOLAND.

Agreed. That "If it's notable" in my post was not meant as a suggestion that an article was warranted. Meters (talk) 19:16, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Nunavut and Ontario are different places. From a separate discussion, it seems that in fact there may be multiple Smooth Islands in Ontario, and perhaps another somewhere around Nova Scotia, and my guess is this is a fairly common and colloquial name for unremarkable islands throughout the English world.

  • Delete - yeah, Nunavut isn't the same as Ontario. No prejudice to creating an article here if one can be created though. --Jakob (talk) 02:21, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above. Seems to be about two different locations --Lenticel (talk) 07:00, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • New content - I have significant new information about this topic. The redirect is no longer required because this is an article in itself. Please see the modifications I'm about to makeJkokavec (talk) 07:06, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've made significant modifications to the article. Could you please review them?--Jkokavec (talk) 07:35, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
