Split proposal
This article deals with what are ultimately three islands, two of which are inhabited. Upper Hoopers Island contains the community of Fishing Creek, Maryland, while Middle Hoopers Island contains Hoopersville, Maryland. Lower Hooper's Island is uninhabited. A few possible options, to make discussion easier:
Option 1: Do nothing. No new articles are created, and the Hoopers Island article remains as-is.
Option 2: Three-Way split with disambiguation. Articles are created for Upper, Middle, and Lower Hoopers Island, and this page becomes a disambiguation. I believe Lower Hoopers Island, despite not being inhabited, can meet the low bar of WP:NGEO.
Option 3: Two-Way split without disambiguation. Articles are created for Upper and Middle Hooper's Island, and this page retains much of its current function. This article would describe each island briefly, with {{Main article}} links to the Upper and Middle articles. This article would also discuss things that relate to all of the islands, especially topics that concern both communities. Lower Hooper's Island likely does not have enough information on it to warrant a standalone article if this article becomes anything but a disambiguation.
