I confess that I had never heard the term "high island" used to refer to an island of volcanic origin. A review of Google Scholar suggest that the term "volcanic island" is much more common than "high island" to describe these features -
volcanic island v.
high island. I suggest that the article be renamed to
volcanic island (currently a redirect).

Yes, I agree the title should be moved to "volcanic island". Volcanoguy 05:20, 4 February 2021 (UTC)reply
