User:ThatSchoolEditor101/List of islands by area

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the list of islands by area sorted by descending order. This list only shows islands above 4 square kilometers.

This list of islands by area is a constant work in progress and will never be finished, just like Wikipedia.

This list contains many islands that the main article does not include outside its limits.

Excludings

[edit]

These are not included in the list. The reason why they are excluded is because they are man-made or a continental landmass.

Artificial islands

[edit]
René-Levasseur Island is one of the largest artificial islands in the world.

Artificial islands are not included in the list because artificial islands are man-made, not natural. They are made by dredging a lot of sand or expanding small islands.

Some examples are Flevopolder, Yumeshima and Ellis Island.

You can see the list of artificial islands by area in this section.

Continental landmasses

[edit]
Mainland Australia is a continental landmass but unlike other continental landmasses, they are also an island.

The continental landmasses are not islands despite being surrounded by water.
