:I disagree. It is not the preferred style, since City Island is not a city. It is an island, that is, a geographic feature. Neither Hart Island or City Island should have the comma, in my opinion, since there is no such municipality as "City Island, New York". -- ] 17:39, 2004 Dec 11 (UTC)

This page has gone back and forth a few times between being called "City Island, New York", and "City Island (New York)". Please leave the title in the comma style, as that is the wikipedia preferred style. See Misplaced Pages:Naming conventions (city names).

I disagree. It is not the preferred style, since City Island is not a city. It is an island, that is, a geographic feature. Neither Hart Island or City Island should have the comma, in my opinion, since there is no such municipality as "City Island, New York". -- Decumanus 17:39, 2004 Dec 11 (UTC)
