Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island → Heixiazi — According to WP:NCON, "If the name of an inanimate or non-human entity is disputed by two jurisdictions and one or more English-language equivalents exists, use the commonest English-language name.". A simple search engine test (which test for both "Popularity" and "Usage") show that Heixiazi is the more common name. — Voidvector ( talk) 17:25, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Please, notice that these speculations had been injected into the article, possibly because some bollocks-historians at a forum concluded that “Kanchazuto” (乾岔子島) means Bolshoy Ussuriysky. As the only source of their new article suggests, that’s a (small) island some 100 km downstream of Blagoveschensk, i.e. definitely not Bolshoy Ussuriysky that is 700+ km downstream. That article, hence, also needs cleanup. I suggest throwing aforementioned edits away of this article immediately. Incnis Mrsi ( talk) 22:30, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
Where is WP:WikiProject Russia indeed? I freakingly could fix all myself, but left it on the talk page deliberately to show that Wikipedia’s current content-quality practices are unsatisfactory. Don’t blame me for not using some stuff like {{citation needed}} – in the old good times I made scores of essential fixes yearly, including upon reading such talk-page postings as this.

This 1904 map [archive.org/details/geographyofasia00tennrich/page/n24/] very explicitly shows the island as Russian; I don't know if it was really intentional or what it means, but I thought I would leave this here in case it could be useful for a future edit.

I propose merging Yinlong Island into Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island. Looking at the article, it is composed of 4 paragraphs. The 1st gives an introduction of Yinlong Island. The middle two talk about the Bolshoy Ussuriysky dispute, and the final one says that Yinlong and nearby islands get the first sunlight in China. The two articles have a lot of overlap. I propose that the first paragraph becomes a section of the Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island article, the middle two paragraphs could be merged into the Bolshoy Ussuriysky Island#History and Bolshoy_Ussuriysky_Island#Agreement_between_Russia_and_People's_Republic_of_China, while the last paragraph could be merged into the beginning. 三葉草 San Ye Cao 04:37, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
Oppose Yinlong Island has a stand-alone article in several language editions, including Russian and Chinese, which are the languages of the countries involved. So I think it is appropriate to make it a stand-alone article in the English version as well.-- Pontevico ( talk) 15:35, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
This is Western propaganda. Us Chinese do not dispute this island. The matter was settled in the 2004 border treaty and China does not claim the entire island as Chinese land. 216.165.201.110 ( talk) 02:23, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
This was when @Kwamikagami revised it to disputed. When User:Kwamikagami made this edit, they were likely referencing the 2023 map by the Standard Map Service which showed the entirety Heixiazi claimed. 三葉草 San Ye Cao 00:22, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
