Talk:Lummi Island, Washington

Merger proposal
Duplicate pages, merge into single better labeled page. ---Iain (talk) 02:27, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose These are not actually duplicate pages; one is supposed to be about the island as a whole, and one is supposed to be about the community located on the island. There is some overlap, and right now a lot of the content in the island's article belongs in the community's, but these should be separate topics.

 * Oppose The Lummi Island, Washington article needs to be rewritten with additional citations. I agree with TheCatalyst31 about the overlap of the two articles and both articles should be remain separated. Thank you-RFD (talk) 12:07, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Support and an extreme no-brainer. If the Lummi island community was different than the island itself, that would be one thing, but it's not. There is only a distinct community because there is a distinct island. The same residents and business on the mainland would not be a community at all. using an IP address 69.7.41.230 (talk) 19:05, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
 * BTW, Mercer Island doesn't have separate articles for the island and the city. This island has way more population, way more content, and an actual incorporated city on it, and doesn't justify separate articles for the island and the city. If Mercer doesn't, Lummi definitely doesn't. 69.7.41.230 (talk) 19:10, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Support -- but the merge should be of the stub article into the larger article, and not vice versa. Geo Swan (talk) 00:02, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Support If and when the article becomes long enough with island-specific and community-specific content, we can have 2 articles again. PhilipRies (talk) 23:28, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
