It seems to me that this needs to be discussed on this page, and that there needs to be some discussion of the history of the term (such as it is).

So, hopefully having dealt with the 'the term British Isles may not include Ireland' complaint, there arises the question of how to deal with the fact that the term is controversial. Most everyone who uses the term 'British Isles' uses it to include Ireland. The basic fact is that nearly everybody who doesn't like the term 'British Isles' as a term inclusive of Ireland simply doesn't use the term. Or are we to assume that Northern Ireland is part of the British Isles, but the Republic of Ireland is not? If Ireland is excluded, what about the Isle of Man, also not part of the UK? If someone can point to a coherent definition of 'British Isles' in a way which excludes Ireland, so much the better, but so far the best that has been provided is a quote from a politician in a letter not primarily concerned with geography, and a whole lot of assertion. Taking this idea to its logical conclusion, it would apparently mean that part of the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland) is not part of the British Isles. Can anyone point to a geographical reference that uses the term 'British Isles,' but excludes Ireland? The use of 'British Isles' in a way which excludes Ireland is also, so far as I can tell, incoherent. Exceptions may be found, I'm sure, but I think it's much more fair to say that 'a lot of Irish people don't use the term 'British Isles' because they find it politically objectionable,' than to say 'a lot of people use the term 'British Isles' as excluding Ireland, because they find Ireland's inclusion to be politically objectionable.' The answer to the second question seems to me to also be 'yes.' Certainly there are many people who don't use the term (although I think the degree of controversy has been exaggerated here), but when the term is used, it is almost always used to include Ireland.

The answer to the first question would appear to be 'yes.' It would appear that the term tends to be avoided in Ireland, and that at least a fair number of people in Ireland object to the usage of 'British Isles' as implying British political supremacy over the Republic. Does the term 'British Isles' necessarily include Ireland?.Is the use of 'British Isles' controversial?.Now, in terms of the issue of controversy, it seems to me there are two questions, which have sometimes been conflated: It seems to me that there is no doubt that the only name in common usage for this assemblage is the 'British Isles.' Various other names have been suggested, but none has really caught on. For me, the most important issue is that we need an article about the island group that includes 'Great Britain, Ireland, and nearby islands'. Well, I suppose since I went to the trouble of reading through this morass, I should comment.Ī few points. 31 My Tuppence as I'm leaving for a week.28 Adding foreign languages into debate.
