well, actually Artificial island, but that redirects here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.192.191.12 ( talk • contribs) 04:27, 25 October 2004 (UTC)
This entry was added, and I wonder if this is pulling things a little. Is [1] an island, or simply a large pier?-- Huaiwei 16:07, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
California: There is an artificial island near the seacoast between Carpinteria and Ventura. IIt was constructed for oil drilling. I believe that it is called 'Richfield Island'. LorenzoB 22:20, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Several entries were taken out in Huaiwei's recent edit. The entries he has taken out include:
I suppose wider input is needed to decide whether to remove these entries. Qaka 10:53, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
There is no entry for France, even though I remember they have a small stone sea fort, which was built artifically in the 1700s in an area where the sea is only about 10 meters deep. Nowadays they use the former fortress as a studio for shooting adventure TV shows. 91.83.1.235 ( talk) 19:43, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
This page needs a rearrange, Netherlands mentioned 2 times, Idea : remove Europe and just sort alphabetically -- MJKubba| talk| contributions 10:03, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
I added Challis Island to the list and was thinking about starting a page. Then I read the guidelines regarding [ notability of geographic features] and I'm not sure this island is notable enough. I'd like to hear a second opinion. If the island is not worthy of a page by itself, then should it also be removed from this list altogether? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Corntrooper ( talk • contribs) 11:34, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Should be have such a list? We could have Peloponnese separated by Corinth Canal, and maybe include south Sweden, separated by Göta Canal and France+Spain+Portugal, separated by Rhone–Rhine Canal.-- BIL ( talk) 20:44, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
South Korea has one major artificial island,the Sevit Islands, among other minor islands such as Seorae and Banpo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.241.78.242 ( talk) 01:03, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
@ 1muntasir: I couldn't find any source (in an admittedly quick web search) that verifies that London Gateway is an artificial island. (It was added in this edit.) It doesn't look like an island on Google Maps, and that article doesn't say it's an island. I've removed it from this list for now, but if you happen to remember where you learned that it's an artificial island, we can re-add it with a citation. Thanks! -- Beland ( talk) 01:47, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
Should artificial peninsulas, like Dubai's La Mer or the US' Spiral Jetty count? Should it be a different page? AAEexecutive ( talk) 20:34, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
I tried various devices, but the headers are not "sticky" as intended. George Ho ( talk) 04:27, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
Hmm... It works only when I enable this wiki's gadget. -- George Ho ( talk) 15:10, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
