Appears to be an ad for a Carribean island (?). It could merit an article, but the title needs clarification, and what's there now is just spam. -- Scott Burley 21:16, Nov 5, 2004 (UTC) Rewrite is much better, changing my vote to Keep. -- Scott Burley 05:34, Nov 6, 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete: In this name, it's nonsense. The content is "It's great! What more could you want?" etc. No content, improper name (key lime pie on a Canadian island? thought that was a Florida thing), nothing to keep. Geogre 22:14, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Seems like a useful thing to have an article about. The key lime pie thing is verifiable. Factitious 01:38, Nov 6, 2004 (UTC)
    • Really? Where is this Elbow Cay, Factitious? Did you find out from the article where it is? If you were in a high school class and needed to find information on Elbow Cay, did this article answer any of your questions, or did it force you to go find them to make up for its deficiencies? I always thought reference works answered questions, not forced them. Geogre 02:07, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
    • I see now that it has been rewritten. Keep the rewrite. Always welcome a good article, but y'all should look back at the history to see what it was when I was making the snide comments. (And key lime pies make sense in the Bahamas.) Geogre 04:59, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, sure. Didn't we once keep an article on some rock off the coast of Scotland? I don't see why we shouldn't have an article on an island. Everyking 02:18, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, of course. Gamaliel 05:44, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, real place. RickK 20:36, Nov 6, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Encyclopedic, relevant, factually accurate, verifiable. --[[User:OldakQuill|Oldak Quill]] 01:01, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • An obvious keep. [[User:Radman1|RaD Man (talk)]] 00:00, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)

How Many Elbow Cays?

[edit]

According to this CIA map and this map from the Cay Sal Bank article, there's [an]other place[s] in the Bahamas called Elbow Cay[s]. Not sure if this merits a disambiguation thingy or what, so for now I'll just mention it here and leave it to someone else who knows what they're doing, or knows more about the islands in question.
