Talk:List of islands created since the 20th century

Title
There has to be a better way to title this...Res Mar 02:51, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps it should be renamed something like "Geologically created new islands" since the current title ("New islands") potentially implies the inclusion of man-made islands, such as those off the shores of Dubai. WolRon (talk) 05:50, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Hey- are you still interested in this? I'm think that "New Island" on Dom João de Castro Bank that existed in the 1720's should be included on this list. Why not have a list of all new islands that date to the Holocene? If that's too much, how about all new islands during the course of recorded human history?

It sounds like this was an island for a period in 1650. Geographyinitiative (talk) 01:33, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

List of new islands → List of islands created since the 20th century – Retitle article to avoid subjective term "new" and match the description in the lead. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:42, 17 May 2023 (UTC) — Relisting.

 * It should certainly be renamed with removal of "new". In order to allow adding older-than-20th-century islands in a later stage, an alternative title could be List of islands by year of formation. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:51, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
 * We should reflect the content as it stands, not expect this sparsely-edited article to be rescoped in the future (and re-moves are cheap). * Pppery * it has begun... 01:43, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Oppose as proposed. "List of islands created since the 20th century" would actually mean "List of islands created in the 21st century"! Maybe you mean "List of islands created since 1900"? -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:54, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
 * AFAIK when using dates, “since” is inclusive, like “since 5 o’clock” Aaron Liu (talk) 13:31, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
 * In any event, I have no objection to the alternate title proposed. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:35, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
