[edit] Izvoru Mic River
Is this river notable enough? I can't find anything on it. Could it possibly be merged to a larger article or list?I feel like a tourist (talk) 18:40, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. I am inclined to think that all geographical features are notable, in the same way that cities and towns are, in part because I do not want to get into a debate about how many cubic metres per second of flow is necessary before a river is considered notable. The article is sourced to two books or organizations for which no link is provided, but the first one seems to be the government's land survey or land registry office and the second one Romania's institute of hydrology and meteorology, so they both sound reliable. If there is an online atlas of Romania, further details might be available there. Latitude and longitude for both the source and the mouth would be helpful. -- Eastmain (talk) 19:28, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
