This 2016 posting is outdated. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_islands_and_lakes points out:

"Until 2020,[15] Vulcan Point was an island that existed in Main Crater Lake on Volcano Island in Lake Taal on Luzon in the Philippines.[16] Main Crater Lake evaporated during the 2020 Taal Volcano eruption,[15] but the water in Taal Lake has returned and has a new island. Vulcan Point became a peninsula"

Wikipedia's sole entry for "Islands in lakes on islands in lakes on islands in lakes" is https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Recursive... , commenting also that "Moose Boulder" - another contention - was found in 2020 to be a hoax.
