Re: Davinson Islands claim
The project has had development since October, albeit as an intended Dauian territory originally, so is old enough. It's also had a spike of activity today that, given the idea of it being a nation smaller than a pixel, would easily be fine to sustain such a claim going forward. However, I feel for claims like this that we've really established the area around +180, +20 as the hotspot for such islands through precedent and this would be quite some distance from that area. In essence, the nation's active enough, I just don't agree with its location (which I think is a reasonable viewpoint when it comes to claims that aren't for land currently portrayed on the claimsmap). ABSTAIN...

Re: Davinson Islands claim
The current description of the location of these islands does not match the map of the claim. So does the time zone. The recent modifications to the article make the text less of a copy of reallife Marshall Islands, but I am not convinced of the sustainable development. So: NAY.

Re: Davinson Islands claim
I was in the process of discussing this claim with him and he was considering different locations, hence the mention of it being close to Mirioth at the time. The claim has now been moved closer to the Franklin Islands, Lusa et al. and the image is now updated above, but the approach has been a little more gung ho than meticulously thought-out, it seems. As such, I'm not changing my vote just yet...Gustaaf Vermeylen wrote: ↑Wed Feb 08, 2023 6:25 pmThe current description of the location of these islands does not match the map of the claim.

Re: Davinson Islands claim
I don't think I'm satisfied enough that this claim isn't just intended to be merged into Daau at a later date, so NAY

Re: Davinson Islands claim
Given the number of abstentions, the best this can now achieve is one aye and one nay, which would be a tie and therefore unable to be accepted...
