Zero sources since late 2019, BEFORE check yielded nothing of use. Nothing has changed since the 2006 AfD, which ended in delete. QuicoleJR (talk) 17:05, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Ambivalent: Editor in question has added one ref, and while it is rather marginal, it does seem to suggest notability may exist even if it has not demonstrated. I also feel that a private island created as a swimming oasis by the rich is downright interesting, precisely the sort of thing I love to find on en.wiki. I did a little BEFORE of my own, but this is rather difficult because the name is also an island in Scotland and most of the references we would expect to find would be in German. Perhaps a cross-post to de.wiki might prove useful, and I'm inclined to argue KEEP in the short term especially as the editor appears engaged. Maury Markowitz (talk) 18:10, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Keep. There are sources out there, but searches in English get swamped by hits for the Scottish island of the same name which is famous for its popular climbing stack. Searching in German is more fruitful and I've begun by adding 3 media sources that show the island continues to feature in local and regional news. I would say its notability stems not just from its unusual origins as an artificial bathing island and its appeal as a tourist attraction that can be reached on foot at low water, but the fact that it is the smallest island in Lake Constance. Anyway, I've made a start on the references and will add more as I come across them. Bermicourt (talk) 18:33, 21 April 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.
