Talk:Snake Island (Ukraine)

message: Fixed some geographic mistakes. People, I don't have maps etc. but I've seen TV pictures from the isle many times. It is not "5 square kilometers" ANYWAY (otherwise Romanians wouldn't call it a cliff). Thus, there are no place for "1000 fishermen" (also, there was no pier there as of 2003). I estimate it's under 500 meters long (any side). That is why I call it "the isle" in the text. AlexPU 17:08, 2 Aug 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Geography

message: As it seems Snake Island (Black Sea) may also refer to a Bulgarian islet (currently at St. Thomas Island) that is also in the Black Sea, so the name is quite ambigious. The Bulgarian islet is actually more often referred to as Snake Island than St. Thomas Island. Any suggestions as to how to solve the problem? Does putting a disambiguation note on top of this article seem enough? Todor Bozhinov  → 18:50, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

message: According to the British wartime press  the Germans had planned in 1918 to "construct" a "new Helgoland" on Snake Island. It could have been just wartime propaganda on either side though. Tijfo098 (talk) 21:14, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Interesting  

message: The Romanian Wikipedia Feature Article says "population 0". The Ukrainian one (also a Featured Article) says "100". Tijfo098 (talk) 22:32, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Amusing wikiality 

message: Snake Island does NOT belong to Ukraine, also Snake Island Lighthouse country information is wrong. Administration: Romania. This island is NOT part of Ukraine and never was. Thank you, please edit for proper information.
:As far as I can tell the territorial status of the island is still under dispute. I am not going to change the wording of the article with respect to national sovereignty before you establish a consensus here on the talk page, which is required for such a contentious topic.

message: The article is periodically vandalized by Romanians who change the island's affiliation from Ukraine to Romania. At the Romanian Wikipedia it is semi-protected starting today. The island has been Ukrainian territory since 1991 and previously belonged to the USSR since 1948.--Kun Kipcsak (talk) 08:52, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Temporary military occupation does not make this island Russian territory. De jure it is still a Ukrainian island. Arado Ar 196 (talk) 15:06, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

message: I can't find any source that is still saying this. Keith McClary (talk) 06:51, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: And I don't see why this article needs to mention the question at all. There's an article about the battle or whatever the event should be called, and that article can take care of questions about who if anyone was killed, cursed, captured or whatever. If someone wants to dispute such questions, and apparently they do, that's where they should do it. This is a geographical article about a small island of some strategic value and small population, and can merely say Russian forces captured it. Jim.henderson (talk) 00:20, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Considering the impact/wide usage of the terms transmitted by the Ukrainian soldiers based in Snake Island, it would be very bizarre to not include at least a passing mention of what happened there instead of just saying "oh yeah btw, it was captured by Russia in February, 2022" Genabab (talk) 11:31, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
