Merge/redirect individual island articles?
edit- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- The result of the discussion was merge. Pinging @Beeblebrox: Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:09, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
Should the following articles be merged here?
While I appreciate that this is a good article and we don't want to mess with that, the three articles proposed for merger constitute all of nine sentences of text. If they were merged I think that could actually be reduced to say these islands are small and rise barely 8 feet above sea level. Only one article has any images and at least one of those is already in use here. It appears there simply isn't much to say about these islands on an individual basis, so it would seem to make sense to have them all direct to this very informative parent article instead. Thoughts?

- As the person responsible for bringing it to GA, I support and I'm happy to deal with it assuming no one emerges from the woodwork to object. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 19:59, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect does seem the logical thing to do. The merger should result in a better article. No prejudice against splitting again if the article ever gets too large and there is enough content for any of the individual islands.
