Requested move 2 February 2019

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved per consensus below. Kraose (talk) 19:01, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Lake Island → Lake Island (British Columbia) – DAB from Lake Island (Antarctica), those listed at De:Lake Island/Sv:Lake Island (of those that are notable) and Lake island. There should be a DAB at Lake Island, similar to Bird Box and the reason for moving Red Meat to Red Meat (comic strip) since Lake island has 2,305 views in the last 20 days compared to only 60 for Lake Island and the one in Antarctica had 9. If some of the others are created, the Canadian one would be even less of a candidate for primacy of the upper case alone. Lake Island (Western Australia) now has 2 links that were linking to the Canadian one. I would suggest that it should be disambiguated to Lake Island, British Columbia but unlike Scottish islands, Canadian islands seem to be generally disambiguated with brackets.

Support move. Given the relatively small number of views this article has, "Lake Island" should become a disambiguation page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Old Naval Rooftops (talk • contribs) 23:53, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Given that Lake Island (Western Australia) now has 3 incoming links and is mentioned on those articles, even if none of the others are notable, we're still outside WP:2DABPRIMARY. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:42, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support. There are very many islands in lakes. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:04, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
