 == Explorations == 

 Its very odd to me that the article makes no mention of the 19th century (and earlier) explorations of the nile.    

 :I know, it's been on my to-do list forever...   

 ::There's a lot of stuff like this that needs to be added: how the ancients confused the Niger River with the Nile, adding the Mountains of the Moon, the ancient Greek's fascination not only with the fact this river flowed from the south to the north (the only such river they knew of), but that it flooded in summer, not winter, as did other rivers. I'd happily add these items, but I'm not quite sure how people would react to the resorting of this article these additions would require.    

 :::Go for it - sounds like a ""The Nile in history"" section to me.  th bills are cool 

 The Ripon Falls should be so spelt, not Rippon - the Earl of Ripon...Korsowan   —Preceding unsigned comment added by   •    
 :*Changed. Thanks for pointing this out, and don't forget WP:BOLD!   

 ==Terminology== 
 There is a section named Branches.  Would Tribiutaries not be better here?   

 == Wildlife? == 

 How come there is no mention about the animal life and ecosysytem of the river.The Nile Salt water crocodile is supposed to be one of the most dangerous crocs in the world!

 'The word ""Nile"" ('nIl) comes from the word Neilos (Νειλος), a Greek name for the old wakawakachangchang, the old misty lady, the old wakatoomba, in traditional maori."" 

 How can it be possible that the Ancient word for a Great River in Classical society is derrived from on complete unrelated language spoken by people who lived beyond the then known world. In my opinion it is impossible that a Maori culture influenced Ancient Greek 
 This knowdegde let me to conlude that this is some kind of vandalism, of that this entry is done by somewone who did not have an appropiate source. 

 Therefore I think that this part should be deleted:  .Greek name for the old wakawakachangchang, the old misty lady, the old wakatoomba, in traditional maori 

 Think again: wakawakachangchang-wakatoomba. They might be some words form an existing languages, but I find it suspicious at least. Someone must test them to check the use of correct Polynesian. 

 I am not an native speaker of English, I speak it more than acceptable, however there are still many words I spell wrong (most of the time only slighty) and I do have a few problems with some grammar. I am Dutch and also participate in the Dutch wiki. However I do have some specific knowledge that might be valuable for the English wikipeda. You will see that I do not create articles very often, but the ones I did took some hard work, trying to have them in correct english as good as I can. Because I do not often have the time to do so, the number of valuable contributions from my hand are quite low. However, when times alows me I will try to write large articles suitable for wikipedia, although they will need thorough screening to correct it. (examples: the Carnivora entry on phylogeny have well been tought out en I believe improved the overall quality of the article. 

 I have much more to do, but the dutch wiki (which keeps going, which is great)has my priority, but i know there are a lot of English articles that i can improve (especialy in evolutionairy relationships and astronomy). But I am reluctant to do it, because I know that my 'first draft' articles are scientificly correct (however sometimes controversial), but when finished they will be full with (mostly minor) violatians with standard English. 

 Perhaps a strange story to tell here, but I couldn't come with a better one to post my goings on wikipedia.   

 So don't be to critical on my posts 

 :You're right, it's just vandalism. There are an amazing number of losers who think it's clever to mess up articles in various ways. Fixed up now.
