The island is just a small skerry on the coast, and I think the original intent of this article, focusing on the archaeological site and former settlement would be much better. The island as such is not notable. Given the current form of the article, I moved it to 'Nipisat Island', but I think it would be best to move it back to 'Nipisat', and switch the infobox to 'infobox settlement', as in Kangeq, where the 'first settled', 'established', and 'abandoned' fields are available. Then we could add it to the former settlements navbox. What do you think?
