[edit] Bush Island

Bush Island (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Delete This island isn't in the USGS names database - so it is either non-existant or quite un-noteworthy, and there is no claim that it is notable - islands are not inherently notable - so fails WP:N. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 20:33, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

• Comment Bush Island seems to be an alternate name for Woodbury Island at the mouth of Woodbury Creek, which was the location of a Revolutionary War battery. There are no references to action there, though. Bush Island is an island in New York State in the St. Lawrence River, I guess one of the Thousand Islands, and is the location of Sunken Rock Light, which seems to make it notable. --Dhartung | Talk 20:48, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per Carlossuarez, or merge if a useful place can be found to which to merge. Stifle (talk) 21:53, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. The only Bush Island I can find in Google maps is a very small island in Delaware Seashore State Park, which itself is a stub and does not mention Bush Island. Possible hoax, reference to Dubya? (or to non-Americans, George W. Bush) Hmm. Keeper | 76 22:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as a hoax. Read a map, folks. Ask a friend from NYC. Bearian'sBooties (talk) 22:06, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
