[edit] January 2006 edits

Why should this article be in the Category:Human geography and the Category:Biogeography, and not every other river in the world? Like say the Amazon River or the Yukon River? The text of the article makes no mention of either of the topics. I'd revert the edits, but the user who added them (User:RJBurkhart) seems to revert them right back... so I don't know. -- Malepheasant 08:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

See Zoo School & links for Hillsdale Water Quality Project (Stream Teams) that uses this watershed as an interdisciplinary Earth Science project-based learning laboratory under EPA-funded programs sponsored by Kansas Alliance of Wetlands & Streams (I-70 Chapter East).

    • Right, nobody in the world should be expected to know where Hillsdale is, and this "talk page" is entirely secondary to the encyclopedia entry for the Marais des Cygnes River. Please couldn't you at least write a sentence in a paragraph about biogeography and human geography for the article (the Marais des Cygnes River, not the talk page) if you wish to include this article in those categories? -- Malepheasant 09:20, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Note the talk page seems to be appropiate for drafting / pre-staging expansion of exising template-based (driven) articles to minimize excess revisioninsm ...

Since 1999, the Kansas Water Office (KWO) with Kansas Department of Health & Environment (KDHE) have "championed" community stewardship efforts to preserve & protect water quality via multiple river orienteering programs like Friend of the Kaw and bioneering interdisciplinary K-State Extension initiatives.
This multi-agency effort focuses on engaging community stakeholders in civic social responsibiltiy for water resources. Hence, biogeography & human geography categories seem appropriate.

  • Also, National Audubon Society, among various external links, was added to the "see also" list, but the National Audobon Society article makes no mention of (this river); and this article makes no mention (apart from the "see also" list to which it was added) of the National Audobon Society; so I don't know what one has to do with the other. -- Malepheasant 10:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
