*'''Question:''' To those proposing the island is not the primary topic, if hypothetically, the programming language was not called "Java", but "California", what would you suggest is the primary topic? The US State or the computer language? Noting that if it was a country, Java island would be the '''8th largest''' in the world by population (larger than Russia, Mexico, Japan, Germany). It is also the central powerhouse of Indonesia, the fourth largest country in the world. California by comparison would be the '''38th largest country'''. --[[User:Merbabu|Merbabu]] ([[User talk:Merbabu|talk]]) 23:44, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*:It's an interesting point to which I can't conjure a convincing answer, so I think I'll strike my above comment. The annual pageviews for California are higher than Java (programming language), but even if they weren't I'd still say California.

*::Thanks for giving consideration and even changing your position. I’m sure we wouldn’t be having this discussion if the name was “California” rather than “Java”. Or “Japan” or even “Dublin”. —[[User:Merbabu|Merbabu]] ([[User talk:Merbabu|talk]]) 04:04, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Oppose both''' - for the various reasons I (and others) suggest above including systematic bias, and long term relevance. --[[User:Merbabu|Merbabu]] ([[User talk:Merbabu|talk]]) 23:44, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Oppose both'''. per above. 1 million pageviews is becoming irrelevant when we talk about 147 million people, the most populous island in the entire world (more than [[Russia]]). We don't move [[C (programming language)]] to [[C]], just because it has significantly [https://pageviews.wmcloud.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&start=2019-05-16&end=2022-05-16&pages=C|C_(programming_language) more views].
