 * There are several uses of Water Island. Water Island, New York is one of them along with a company in Canada.  I'm sure that there are others.  While the New York one does not have an article it and the USVI entry are correctly named so that the Water Island article can be converted to a dab article.

Supposed Danish sale in 1944
How was the sale done? Denmark was occupied by germany in 1944. We didnt have a government, and there was no referendum about the sale. There seems to be some kind of information missing here. If anyone knows this piece of information please include it in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.38.4.198 (talk) 22:54, 31 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Please see this relevant discussion, which supports that there was no transfer of sovereignty from Denmark at any time after 1917. An apparent transfer of ownership of private property occurred in 1944. Jeff in CA (talk) 23:23, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
