[edit] Conventions and naming of lakes

Some questions and issues:

  1. Should we adopt a minimum size for a lake (c 1 acre ?) - otherwise the list could run to many hundreds ?
  2. Is ordering by Unitary Authority appropriate ? - all in one long list would be unhelpful and I can't think of an alternative scheme that provides some geographic context.
  3. I think that alphabetical order is useful within Unitary authority area, but how to arrange such a list ? Alphabetical by the principal nominator seems about right (i.e. ignoring words such as Llyn, Pwll, Lake, Reservoir etc.).

All three make sense I think. Rhion 15:35, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
