Requested move 27 July 2024
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: moved. There's a general consensus to move, although there is an alternative proposal to move Cooper Island to Cooper Island, South Georgia but I don't see any major support for that, hence my move to the original proposal.

– No clear primary. Page views show the island in the British Virgin Islands as consistently having more page views, but not enough for it to unambiguously be the primary. Seems like it would be better suited to WP:NOPRIMARY. Turnagra (talk) 20:26, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nomination. There are six entries listed upon the Cooper Island (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the eight-sentence stub delineating the South Georgia island exhibits renown sufficient to dwarf the combined notability of the remaining five entries. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:06, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Move to Cooper Island, South Georgia.--Ortizesp (talk) 12:45, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support but yes perhaps comma disambiguation would be best though those in Category:Islands of South Georgia use both, 6 use commas and 5 use brackets. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:06, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Happy with that - apologies, I'm used to the NZ conventions where brackets are used for uninhabited places. Whichever way we end up going, those should probably be standardised after this too. Turnagra (talk) 18:38, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Support. There are multiple Cooper Islands. The current page is mainly about one that isn't very famous. Waqar💬 16:58, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Support original proposal. Clearly not a primary topic. Having to choose between the two disambiguations proposed, I lean towards parenthetical, as the WP:PLACEDAB guideline states:
With natural features, the tag normally appears in parentheses, as in Eagle River (Colorado). Specific national conventions may take precedence though.
No specific national convention seems to apply. Favonian (talk) 17:21, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
